Where to find Ronson Jetlite? - Page 2

04-21-2009, 04:31 PM

I just picked up a couple yesterday at Wal-Mart. Look at the checkout section that sells cigarettes and other tobacco. Just before the register there should be shelves (like the ones that normally hold candy/gum, etc) with batteries, matches, and lighters.

Exactly, I have gone through about a dozen of these my self. In fact, just left one in Fl the other day with a Brother-in-law that had flown down. He asked what to do with it as it will not go on the plane. I said toss it for $3.

I would like to publicly thank Col. Kurtz for so graciously mailing me a ronson jetlite and a few selected sticks to come along for the ride. I am thoroughly surprised at the generosity of the members of this board from my short time here.

I'll have to get pics up later.

sticks included:
601 Black Conn. Robusto
601 Red Habano Robusto
5 Vegas Miami Robusto
Slow-Aged 826 by Perdomo

these smell and look amazing, i can't wait to break the lighter in on one when i have some downtime. Thanks again Col.!

Thanks for all the Ronson info. I'm going on a quest this evening.

Enjoy that el cheapo lighter!

GKitty · 04-26-2009, 09:43 PM

I went to my local Super Wallyworld and scored 3 Ronsons for less than $3 a pop. They even had 3 different case styles, which made the girly part of me very happy.

Thanks for all the guidance.

Oh, I have been. Lights up everytime, just like a lighter should!

This can't be counted on, but at the BIGLOTS cash register last week I saw
half a dozen and bought 3. But they were 3 bucks each, so the faux discount
fairy got me in the a$$. But only 3 cents each over Walmart, so who could complain.

I just used my Ronsen to light an Opus X a minute ago. No different between a 100 lighter and a Ronsen. It lights just fine. Never will I buy a fancy lighter again.

The regular (non-Super) Wal-Mart by my carries them. Only in the express checkout/tobacco counter line, just before the register.

Dont be discouraged if your WM is out of them. These are the #1 lighter for crack and meth heads so they often are sold out. For my WM restock time is about 10-14 days.

thats a good point, I never thought of that. I must not have many crack heads by me because my WM always has them in stock (TONS of them)

Hey guys I new here, which I am sure you can tell! Anyways, about a year ago I purchased a Ronson from Walmart and it served me very well for the entire time I used it but a few months ago I lost it. I spent almost half of my day today trying to track down another one, I went to every single Walmart near me, visited a couple of Walgreens and called about a dozen CVS' and other more distant Walmarts, Biglots, and Walgreens and was met with some very confused faces and no luck in finding one. Does anyone know of any other stores that sell them or anyone who ships them? I live in the Dallas, TX area and really want to find another one(or few)! Thanks guys!

markem · 05-20-2009, 05:39 PM

The online ronson store has then at a good price

http://www.ronsonstore.com/

05-20-2009, 05:47 PM

I checked out the website and the only thing preventing me from ordering from them is that the total to purchase and ship one lighter is $13. I am not an extremely cheap man but the reason I want to buy a Ronson is because of the price. The fact that they charge $7.50 for shipping an item smaller than the palm of my hand is ridiculous!

akakirby · 05-20-2009, 05:50 PM

I've been looking in my area been to a walmart, cvs, rite aid and a few cigg stores with no luck. if anyone in the richmond va area knows where to get one please pm me!!

kelmac07 · 05-20-2009, 07:15 PM

Daniel...PM me you addy and I will send one out to ya. Will you be at the Tulip Twin her on 26 May?

05-20-2009, 07:44 PM

I know that with Ronsons that either the places that have them will get a run on them and sell out quickly. I saw on Ebay that there are sellers who will sell themby the 12 pak : Lot of 12 Ronson Jetlite Butane Torch Lighters New NIB $49.95 Free shipping 11d 15h 50m

If you will go on Ebay and do a search for Ronson Lighters you can score a bunch for the price of one Colibri or other name brand. You can go in with a couple of buddies and share the total cost as well.
