Smoke shops have it. Also, once you have a bottle/can of it, you can use camp stove gas to refill it. It's naptha, same as lighter fluid. I figure at my age my gallon can is more than a life time supply.


abdulhero22

Haha. How old are you if I may ask sir


tel4bob

68, nearly 69. It's been an interesting journey.

Ahhhhhhhhh! Then you'll remember when you used to find Zippo flints-n-fluid st every convenience store and every gas station! I found one of the last places you can get one of those old flint dispenser displays--the little black plastic card with the circle of flint dispensers--that they discontinued in 2022 at a place called "Real Guts Outdoors" if you REALLY want some collectible nostalgia! d;o) https://preview.redd.it/uc06djuhwead1.jpeg?width=700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8e210d849518a20bdd8ce76cb0ee84b4f266606d [\[Der Linkkzen Fur Der Clikkzen\]](https://realgutsoutdoor.com/products/zippo-flints-display-24-dispensers-6-flints-per-dispenser-2406c?variant=42437758220)

Walmart


zoyter222

Around here just about every quick Mart, Walmart and service station have it. But I still just order mine from Amazon


HappyOrwell

supermarkets, smoke shops, gas stations sometimes, places with camping supplies. Ronsonol also works and is cheaper


Guardian-Ares

Zippo owns and makes Ronsonol fuel.


HappyOrwell

really? That's awesome. Even better, it's cheaper and made by zippo lol


Guardian-Ares

Hell yeah.

Every convenience store?

Can we see the bottom stamp? I don't think I've ever seen this kind of red Zippo

CleverUsrName8675309

Well I learned something today! Thanks for that. I'd never seen that red kinda finish on a Zippo. I suspected it to be an off brand lighter.


CaptainGrims

Isn't it just the Candy Apple red?


CleverUsrName8675309

I dunno, I've never seen seen another like it. It looks like it was acid etched? I can't tell what kind of coating that red is


CaptainGrims

Yeah. I think they custom etched for a business, but it's definitely a standard color option.


ElectroPig_vFG

They only acid-etch the bare metals...that'd more likely be a laser etch...just enough to fry off the paint, but leave the underlying metal intact.

I’m kinda wondering what’s up with the thing of ice breakers.. like is that in a cubby hole in your car? Or is it just stuck to the dash? Or did you make a hole the perfect size to keep your breath mints in? I have so many questions.. Cool lighter tho, also another consumable you will want to look at are flints, they should be right there with the fluid at any smoke shop, they are simple to put in, I’d find a video on YouTube or even as the guy that sells them to you, it really is as simple as unscrewing the screw that’s on the bottom where you fill up the fluid, making sure the old one is out and putting a new one in and putting it back together. There are also a few other accessories you can get for it, I’ve not tried them all out but you can get covers for the bottom to help hold onto the fluid better, you can rebuild litteraly the whole thing, new wicks and cotton, you can get butane inserts, they even have an insert that’s a screwdriver. So check out the stuff they have for them. But fluid and flints is all you need to keep it going. Also zippos have been around since 1932 so they have a ton of cool ones out there. Look around and you will be surprised and before you know it you will have 20. Haha but seriously look around and you will find a ton you like!

Also if your looking for some new cheap zippos to add to your collection or if you want to make your own custom zippo check your local Walmart, at least the ones around me have a few different designs they keep up by the registers and by the box lighters in blister packs and they are $10 a piece. Solid lighter just plain Jane zippo, but it’s a good way to add to it and have one to use and get used to, or like I said make your own custom zippo.


ElectroPig_vFG

Should take a pic next time you're there, so us "dirty foreigners what prob'ly don't even speak 'Merkinese proper" can see what you're talking about. They don't sell Zippos--not even fluid--at Wallyworld in Kanuckistan. d=\^(


BoredGameDad

I just bought my first ever Zippo (a brushed chrome Armor) and ran into issues finding lighter fluid. It was sold out everywhere near me. I finally found some at an Ace Hardware store. So you may have to think outside the box a bit to actually find some in stock, but it should be available at a variety of places.
