Sometimes you see a product that can meet the needs for simple things that seem to meet the need for ppl on a budget.
Lighter leash:
http://www.lighterleash.com/home.htmlA simple retractable spool with 3 feet of reasonably strong line with a spool clip that was designed to keep a Bic Lighter close and secure. (I bought 4 at $1.99 each)
The attached ring can also mate up with a Swizz army knife.
With a few wraps of Duct Tape (would you ever be without it?) you can mate up a Mini Maglite with it.
