The rest of the lights in the system will remain illuminated. Except in that branch of the circuit.

The parallel branch(s) get more current if the voltage potential remains the same.

Is series or parallel circuit cheaper?

A parallel circuit is cheaper because it is simpler but it does carry less power than a circuit so your light will be less bright.
