Is it hard to find strike anywhere matches or is it just me?

REI has TONS for a good price...

Just bought some big ol' strike anywhere "kitchen matches" at the local Ace Hardware, last month. They stink as bad as I ever remember when lit. $1.69/box, just like the one Toten Kopf pictured. And I'm in the middle of meth-maker's hell. We have to lock up the anhydrous so the methers don't steal it, can't buy more than 200 pseudo-ephedrine, etc. etc.

I still have the case I bought for the Y2K doomsday.

Funny - I am in the Dakotas also - we had a couple guys steal anhydrous from a tank in the yard one year - one of them dropped his Visa card. You think that would be enough to prosecute? Nope....

I remember one sweep of the labs, Tripp and Gregory counties in SD busted 11 in one month. Of course, that was after a couple of years' investigation.

Methers are scum, pollute old farmsteads and move on, leaving hazmat cleanup to us (footing the bill).
