Since late November the local Lowes & Home Depot have only had in big packs, the 4 ft conversion bulbs that work with a ballast. Took driving into the city to buy 2 dozen of the correct style from an electrical supplier.

Am in and out of Sam's every couple weeks. The last time I went down the isle where Sams offered something for an LED shop light, the cheap POS used a LED rope light setup inside, not replaceable 4 ft bulbs. The entire deal is throw away, just like the $8 LED rope lights at Harbor Freight.
