    cheap fire lighter

    anyone used one of these, not sure if it's any good, but for £0.65 it might be worth a go.

    I've got one of those, but I paid £4 for mine! It takes a bit of getting used to. You unscrew the top and put zippo type lighter fluid in it. There is a 'stick' with a wick on the end that fits in to the centre, and a striker that you run down the 'firesteel' type material on the outside. Once you get the hang of it they work a treat.

    Check that it seals well though, or you'll have petrol everywhere!

    Edit: Just saw it's £2.49 for delivery. I don't feel quite so ripped off now!

    I had one of these on my keys but gave up on it as found the fuel had evaporated or leaked out before I used it, I would always make sure that it was tightly sealed after I filled it with fuel.

    I'd rather a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy
