If you can't find them at Wally World for $1.00, it means they're sold out at that particular location for now. Ironically, I have seen that happen before. Would like to say that it's because more and more folks are enjoying camping or are preparing for emergencies . . .
Truth is, drug dealers love those match-cases since it's a great way for them to store the rocks they sell.
Thanks for the suggestion!
I went by WallyWorld yesterday and they had the 'Coleman' version, which seems to be slightly taller than the Coghlan, with a few more millimeters of clearance, but pretty much identical. The Colemans are $1.00 and they come with about 40 smaller, waterproof matches and a striker sheet inside a little ziplock baggie, which is curled up and does a nice job of quieting the batteries inside.
Picked up 4 and might buy a few more, just to have. I'm even able to get sparks out of the flints!
