Due to disruptions in the supply chain from China Zippo lighters become unavailable. How will smokers be able to light their cigarettes?

I wanted matches one time and went to three different stores and none of them had matches.

    Bic is made in France - pardon, fabrique en La France. Shouldn't be a problem.

    All right. I thought everything was made in China.
    I googled it and found that only the Bic Megalighter is made in China. This post was edited by Kittigate at December 27, 2021 9:05 AM MST

    Propane torches from Lowes or Home Depot.

    I guess that would be a better idea than an emergency road flare -those things are hard to extinguish.

    You could also use a handheld 5w laser.
    I bought one of those when I saw the photo of it lighting a fire.  Just to see if it really could do that.  It can.

    Best idea so far, I think.

    Take it as an opportunity to quit. There are many worse things happening in the world.

    I thought Zippos were only used by movie and TV characters and most of them are non-smokers. They come in handy for starting gasoline fires. I have one that my wife found that has a company with my last name. I don't use it.
