Boxed Matches, good luck buying them

[Where's Barbie?]

I like having box matches, No I don't smoke. They can "clear the air" in the restroom. So, while I at Walgreen's I asked where they moved them? They usually behind the register. I was told they are no longer allowed to sell matches. WHAT!! They do still sell lighters and those candle lighters. I asked why and she had to call the manager. She was telling me that they aren't allowed to sell them anymore cause children play with them. Manager gave me a more official answer and did agree that it was silly to still sell the other fire starters and yet not matches.

Well I was really shocked and decided to ask for them at other places. Target, Rite Aid, Savon and Ralph's all had the same policy. What is going on and is this just in my area or state? I was told to go to a cigar store but I haven't.
What happened with just not selling anything that is a match or lighter to minors?

WHY ARE YOU YELLING AT US???? YIKES!

Next time you're in a mall, see if they have a Tinder Box. I'm sure they should have some!

[Where's Barbie?]

I wasn't yelling at you!!! I just like using different fonts. Yes the size was big so I made it smaller.

Is that walmart in LA county?

So I am guessing that since some parents can not teach children not to play with fire we all have to be screwed because of it? That sucks..

Have you tried Smart & Final?

Just use a lighter, wave it around, and pretend you're at a concert .

Well I use candles in my bathrooms but I have to have matches to light those!!

Geeze I'd better look next time I'm at the store and see if they still have them. If they do, I'd better buy a case! I can see it now, there will be a run on boxed matches wherever they can be found!

Incense, works great.

I like the teakwood box I use because it stores the incense and it is easier to clean up after.No ashes.

[NeverNeverland]

What? Are you serious? I bought mine at the 99 cebnts store a fwe years ago but they're almost gone. Try there? Man, that'd stink! I need to light my candles somehow

[pixywingz]
