Stack of quarters lighter
I got this one at a Checker Auto Parts store. We had to make a trip there because the starter in our truck decided it wasn’t going to work anymore. The tag said $4.99 but when it got scanned it only came up $3.99. And I wasn’t going to correct the machine, if they wanted…

Winston Select Lighter
This thin, flat lighter looks real old, but I cannot find anything to tell me when it was made. It seems to be made to slip into a pack of cigarettes. When inspecting it you can tell it used to have white in those little grooves on the sides. There is some left on the…

Red fire hydrant lighter
The only thing missing is a dog peeing on it. I could not find a dog small enough to pose next to it. Once again this one was bought at the truck stop, for $6.99. It is hard to lite, I will have to get someone else to hold it a lite it for a…

Duralsell battery lighter
I shopped victoriously on eBay.com and this is one of my prizes. eBay can be so addictive. I only paid one penny for this lighter, but the shipping was $5.99. Total $6.00. It was described as a C-size battery, but it is not the size of a C battery. It is taller and skinnier than…

Flaming skull lighter
My husband acquired this lighter while working as a maintenance man at a local hotel. The hotel just installed new safes in all of the rooms and he was the only one that knew how to open and reset them after a guest checked out. This lighter was left in a safe along with a…

You won’t be playing any games with these red dice.
This red dice lighter was bought at a Family Dollar Store, for 5.99. We were checking out and it was in a display on the checkout counter, I could not help myself. The numbers on the sides are wrong, there are two many sides with six & five dots on them. But I do not…

John Deere green tractor lighter
This lighter was bought at the Truck Stop (many of them were) for about $5.00. I thought it was funny taking its picture in the grass since it is a tractor. Make it feel at home. The design is flawed, I do not like where you light it at. Maybe it is a matter of…

Bigger, big zippo “like” lighter
This one is even bigger than the other one (almost 7″ tall). I got this one from the local truck stop, it was $24.00 and some change. It does not have a brand name or any markings saying who made or anything like that. This is it next to the other big lighter. These lighters…

Big Zippo-Like Lighter
Shortly after bringing me the alien lighter that same friend brought me this big zippo like lighter. I say zippo-like because it does not say it is a zippo. Standing at almost 5 inches tall, it towers over a standard-size zippo lighter. It is the perfect size for a man with big hands, and a…

Cute little Singing Alien- “its a small world”
This was the lighter that started my collection of lighters. It was given to me by a long time family friend, who is also a long time junk collector. He usually brings the best of his junk to me to see if I want it before it gets ‘lost’ in his piles of stuff. He…
