tips on how to convince parents to ket collect zippo lighters

I will make the ASSUMPTION that you're over 13 years old.

If u want to COLLECT them rather than use them to light fires, the answer is SIMPLE: Your Mom gets to keep the insides (wick & flint) locked up until either u turn 18 or she feels you're responsible enough. If u just want to collect them. get a nice display box & there ya go !!

DON'T collect them behind her back, nothing will screw with a parents trust more than that sort of thing !! I know. I was a teen, & now I am a father of two of them !!

I understand the attraction. I collected over 30 while I was in the Navy: one from each of my Squadrons (3), ships I deployed on (15), & bases & places I visited.

GOOD LUCK

do it behind her back? my mom would never let me collect lighters, yet i have around 30 :D

dont, when i was wee i did and almost burt the house down!
