I've got something like this. You can put it into a plate designed for a GFCI. Basically just replace your existing light switch.

Here's one for $15
Since you don't feel like running a few feet of 14/3 NM and installing 3-way switches (which would be the right way to do what you wanna do), just use an occupancy sensor.
Hi! If you're a big DIY person, I found these companies on Amazon called Top Greener and Enerlites where you can install your own light switches. The one that I have all around my house are motion sensor switches and the fan/light timer. So far, I've noticed my bill has gone down. I think it's good because when you program the lights, they basically turn off themselves. Anyway, I'll provide the links if you're interested so you can make a better decision.

Is it in a pantry or closet or something? If not why not put in a motion sensor on the switch itself? Our company uses these and they are nice: Link
