WTH happened to matchbooks/safety matches?

Posted by I haven't been in a coma. Don't like box type. sm on Sat, Aug 07 2021 at 11:59 AM CDT:

Looks like the only place you can get regular matchbooks is on Amazon if you can locate a good seller. I do NOT like those Greenlight box matches. Do not strike well and break because they are so hard to light. I have to use a BIC lighter to light them. Ridiculous. (I don't smoke, just need it for candles, keep in the bathroom, etc.)

Have searched in store or online grocery stores, hardware, craft, party stores, restaurant supple, even Lowe's, Home Depot, WM, Target. I've missed something here. When did they stop making these? Strange.

TIA

Amazon $5.00. You want better than that for 100 books? Walmart has them nm Sun, Aug 08 2021 at 12:14 PM CDT (0)

p.s./Addendum - read reviews on Amazon and nobody else can get these either but did not say why. nm OP Sat, Aug 07 2021 at 12:29 PM CDT (0)

- Good suggestion. We have Circle K (and 7-11). Will check it out. Maybe they sell them too. Will also check the other gas stations. nm OP Sat, Aug 07 2021 at 12:34 PM CDT (0)
