$2.96 each at my Walmart and $3.00 at Big Lots, bought a few last week.

I finally found some at CVS.

I can NEVER find em at CVS or WM!! All I find are the cheap Ronson plastic ones.

Rats!

I have never seen them at CVS myself but some otheres have. Many of the Super Walmarts either don't have them, can't find them or don't know they have them..... but if they do have them they will be around the checkout at the Cigarette holding area. You will have to search them out yourself though. I have a steady supply from a local old style Walmart in a very small town nearby, they have them behind the counter on the cigarette checkout. You have to search them out though the employees have no idea what you are talking about.

They can often be found at Big Lots but once again they don't know what they are either. There you have to walk along and check all the register aisles, they hang them with the crap on the pegboards there, often only on one register aisle though so check them all.

Just found 2 at CVS today!! $4.50 each. They are behind teh counter by the tobacky.

They're $2.94 at my local Wal-Mart. They have at least 2 different designs: a brushed metal, and one with a grooved art deco kinda design on the sides. I picked up a couple for backups, and I'd be happy to snag some more if anyone can't find them locally.

Has anybody in the Columbus, Ohio area been able to find these anywhere? I haven't had any luck yet, but I will keep searching!

I find them quite regular around here at Wal-Mart. Of course, I have 12 WM Supercenters within 30 minutes of me. May do something I done on CS to earn a little trader feedback. They are $3 each, and cost about $2 to ship including the envelope, etc. I may pick a few up and let them go for $5 on here if anybody would be interested. Not trying to make anything on them, just cover my cost and pickup a little feedback.

My local Old School Walmart ran out a month or so ago and now says they have been discontinued.

Check out EEEE-Bay. I picked up 12 back in May for $40 with free shipping.
Still on there this morning for $49.95 buy it now or make an offer.

I may end up going with the bay, but will keep looking locally. Maybe a few will turn up!

I used to sell them on ebay myself over a year ago. It was for a small profit though. I would list them $8.50-$10 each, Buy it Now, free shipping. Sold probably 30+ on there in just over a month.

Had a little luck today, stopped at the country Walmart on the way home to pick something up and went down the smoke aisle to check out and holy cow a new peg with 1-dozen Jetlites hanging there. Now there are only 6 left hanging. The lady that works that area has been there a long time and she said that so many people were asking for them the manager put them back in stock and she just hung them up this afternoon.

Same here,,,my Walmart always seems to carry them now and I have a dozen of them just in case. Still on my very first Ronson I bought a year ago and the things will not stop working no matter how badly I treat it. I don't purge before recharging, I drop it on the cement drive way, I washed twice in the laundry,,,,unreal how this thing just will keep on going.

I found these lighters for sale online at Finck Cigar Company http://www.finckcigarcompany.com for $6.95 as of today.
Hope this helps as I'd looked near and far for this lighter after my Walmart discontinued carrying them.

I have had some beautiful lighters over time. I have none of them now. In fact, expensive lighters fear my name. I have a couple of inexpensive lighters that I just can't lose. I won't ever buy an expensive one again. I will be featuring the Ronson at my Festival cigar sales this summer.
