We haven't run out of matches in ages: the last ones we bought were a 4-pack of strike anywheres. But, unbelievably, we are now running low. And in a timely fashion we stumbled on these colorful boxed matches at iomoi...

The matches come in two 250-count boxes for $12. The boxes are available in a selection of bold, unusual designs that are nice enough you'll want to leave them out.
I've seen it all.

I love these Iomoi matches, they inspired me to go on a internet search binge scouting other cool match box designs a few months ago when I first saw them!

These are interesting but I love my (Grandmother's) antique match box holder. And with a holder, you have the match at your fingertips. No more pesky sliding the box open. That saves me, what, 35 seconds a year?
