In extremely old refrigerators an ordinary light bulb will fit. Be sure to use the smallest wattage you can. I believe normal fridge bulbs are 40W.
The risk you run is they are not as rugged as a refrigerator bulb. It may break, causing glass to contaminate food. And a higher wattage could create enough heat that on busy days it may cause the temperature to rise enough to be a problem. When the door is closed the light is off, but if it is hot, the bulb takes a few moments to cool off and that may affect the cooling ability of the fridge.
