Hi everyone,
I know it seems odd to ask, but could anyone tell me where I could get matchbooks from? I am from UK and it seems I can normally get matchbox but not matchbooks, as I need some for fire trap (signed coin in matchbook). Do I only get it in restaurants or hotels only? Thanks Bob
Best Regards,

Start a collection. Get your friend, girlfriend, wife, drinking buddy, etc. to pick you up a couple of match books everytime they visit an establishment that has them. Pretty soon you'll have a whole drawer full.

Advertising Specialties.
You know.....pens, balloons, pads and other advertising items. They sell nice matchbooks. Then you can do quarter in matchbook. Or try a smoke shop. Nez

In the US at grocery/drug store you can pick up a box of matchbooks as THEGUY stated for next to nothing...
