We really hate shopping, but from time to time you do get a deal...

I can second that. They were 2 for $20 on Amazon and have both red and white LEDs.

Wal-Mart has some awesome "TENT" lights. I got one then went back and got 3 more awesome! I use them in my house to light up rooms! They are like a disc with tons of LEDs and really illuminate a room.

You know, I should get some of those. My employer is buying some XLamp LEDs for a product that the company is developing, and I was already thinking they would be really good for house lighting. They are hellaciously bring. I was trying to decide if I could use the surplus LEDs for a survival product.
