Yes, hoarding is good... probably you can also find online sources
for "long life" incandescent bulbs (5000 hours? 20000 hours?).
Also, once the ban begins, I suppose you can import them from
other countries (assuming the bulbs are compatible).

Eventually LED bulbs should be inexpensive and acceptable. But
not at the moment...
