I guess I'd have to wonder WHY? Obviously, and I'm NO minor, FIRE is COOL (no pun) when controlled by a KID. My thought however is what other possible use might a minor have for owning, carrying, showing off a lighter?

Looks like in some areas, no. Others, who cares? But in the same areas where they CAN, just try buying spray paint at Wal-Mart! I'm 60, and a couple years ago, I got carded there trying to buy spray paint! Even the store manager wouldn't make an exception to their carding policy for a white-bearded old man!

I know it's kind of dumb. It all depends on the stores policy. I work at few places we couldn't sell lighters to minors, but we could sell them matches, gasoline, propane, and lighter fluid. No there is no law that I know of. Ask your police dept.

Some states no if your not old enough to smoke then why would you need a lighter, we stopped selling them to minors where i use to work.

I've never heard or seen where they can't. But sorry, they should'nt be able to unless there is a good reason for it. Why would you need it unless it was for a campfire or for use in work of some type. Any other reason would be for tabacco or pot which is not legal.

I got carded a while back when I bought pipe cleaners to clean my water cooler with. So maybe not. But what about matches?

Not legally [in california at least].
But there HAVE been careless sales in some places.

Yes and no.
Just depends on where you are. I think it would be ok, like in case there was a blackout or something.

Yeah, I'm 98% sure that they can. Fire isn't illegal for minors!
