A few options to consider:
(1) Kerosene lanterns are listed above. One can purchase very inexpensive (and simple) lanterns at Walmart for a few dollars. Stinky, incurs fire risk, makes smoke, and provides minimal light. But, it works, is cheap, and is EMP proof!
(2) Candles: can purchase these on-line in bulk very inexpensively, too. Store forever. Use them when you need them. But, they also have the risk of fire, make smoke, and don't provide great reading light.
(3) Solar-powered lanterns: Neat little inflatable LED lantern powered by solar panel. Cool idea, works great, but not particularly tough.

(4) Other lanterns: This lantern is really, really handy for power failures.

Just some ideas!
