I bought a box of 20 CFL's back when, most died within a year or less. I ended up getting a gift card from the manufacturer good enough to cover 2 boxes. Most of those crapped out quickly also so they sent yet another gift card and I got more. My whole house is CFL and they were basically free at this point so i'll use them until I run out or LEDs get cheap enough.
Have you checked your voltage? CFLs are very picky to voltage spikes and also low voltage.
After re-wiring my house very few burn outs since with my CFL's.
