Disposable lighters
Walgreen Co. of Deerfield, Ill., is recalling 53,000 disposable cigarette lighters sold as part of the Smoke Tote set because the lighters' child-resistant mechanisms could fail to reset themselves, allowing children to ignite them.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and Walgreen are not aware of any injuries involving the lighters.
The lighters, sold inside a vinyl pouch, come in red, yellow, blue, white, black or green with matching cigarette case.
The items come in a pack labeled "Perfection Smoke Tote ... Free Child Proof Lighter and Fashion Case."
