Up here in Ottawa, Canada, there's quite the campaign going on to replace your front-door lights with CCFLs... I suspect that this won't work out so well come January, where I'm sure you'll be lucky to get 10W-equiv of light out of a CCFL It should also be mentioned that CCFLs have varying outputs depending on the temperature.

I am trying to persuade my husband to install a solartube to cut down on the amount of lighting we need. most of the LED bulbs I’ve seen have been closer to $25 so I do agree that CFLs give you biggest bang per buck, especially for my kitchen.

(lumens/watts) INC = 14.17 CFL = 57.39 LED = 16.04 I actually bought an LED lightbulb at an HEB supermarket (locally) for about $10. It's pretty cool, but doesn't provided much more than ambiant lighting. But it does have this mellow color shifting thing going on, which is pretty cool. So even though LEDs last forever, CFLs still give you greatest bang per buck. It should be noted that the light per watt of electricity expended is the best for CFLs. (lumens/watts)
