Seriously, one of the best items for a survival kit. I recommend using it to start your fires on a regular camping trip just to get practice, should you ever need it.

Looks like you can only order 1 at that price. Not worth it to just buy 1.

I bought one of these last time they were listed on here for $1.49. It took a long time to arrive but I was in no hurry to get it so other than that it was good except it is made in China which wasn't much of a surprise.

@mmessy00: The shipping's free, so why not? I've purchased single small items like this over a dozen times from meritline. With the slow free shipping, it's like sending myself little surprise gifts.

I am surprised that it is still alive. Great addition to the Zombie
Apocalypse preparedness kit.

Purchased (coupon code still works). I already have a flint like this, but I see no problem having multiple as these things are awesome.

Still good as of 11:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time.

I also don't understand how it isn't worth it to get one of these for $1.49 delivered. Admittedly, it will take about three weeks to get here, but it will be a nice surprise at that time.

@publiclurker: I still got one, but I wish they would let me get a dozen at that price. Great gift idea!

Picked one up. Good enough price to have it in my gear for camping/kayaking this summer.

Too bad, I guess I will have to wait until a good price comes around again.

@mmessy00: I'm pretty sure they do this as a loss-leader. they don't make any money at that price, but they may get people to buy other things while they are there. I know that I've gotten a number of items this way.

If you have a Harbor Freight near you, these are a good alternative: http://www.harborfreight.com/magnesium-fire-starter-66560.html

Sometimes Harbor Freight has them on sale for less than $2.00

I saw them at Walmart too, in the camping department, but I don't remember how much they were there.

edit: looks like Harbor Freight wants to be a pain in the ass with linking. Search for "Magnesium Fire Starter".

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
