Where to find Ronson Jetlite?

These disappeared around Atlanta for a while but now I am starting to see them again and even in the drugstores that didn't carry them before. Price seems to have climbed a bit but they are still under $5

I've had no problem finding them at any Walgreens in the ATL area for around $5 as mentioned before, but I've only seen them at one Wal-Mart (Cobb Parkway) for $3 each.

Interesting for about a year I couldn't find them at all. When they were plentiful I could only find them at CVS and Rite-Aid but never at Walgreen's and Wal-Mart. With that said I noticed the Walgreens up by the Square on 120 this past weekend had them in stock. If I get a chance this weekend I'll make a stop by Wally World.

About a month ago I was checking every Wal-Mart I drove by to find them and then broke down and bought a couple for $5 at Walgreens. So far I've only seen them at this one Wal-Mart on Cobb Parkway, but I haven't been to any others recently either.

Has anyone seen these anywhere in a polished chrome? Also, anyone seen the "Amero Lite" and/or "Euro Lite" anywhere? I've seen these different models as well as the polished chrome Jetlite on eBay, but never anywhere else (including Ronson's website). The "Amero Lite" looks to be a rounded version of the Jetlite, while the "Euro Lite" is skinnier and has a clasp on the flip closure. Both "Amero" and "Euro" are selling for around $8-$12 on eBay... interesting, but not the same value as $3-$5 locally for the Jetlite.

There were a number of people on here that purchased the AmeroLite for about $1 a pop at from a web site that shall remain nameless. Many found their credit cards hacked shortly thereafter. The AmeroLite is not a jetlite, but a poorer hybrid version.

Good to know... I assumed it was the same mechanism in a different case... they look pretty sweet, but if they don't perform then I guess there's not much point!
