She's started to collect magnet 2 years ago. She collected 15 magnets so far and I also contributed to it too, haha. Most of the places of magnets she got is in the philippine islands. 2 are from another country. I think her collection is unique because many people are collecting stamps like my papa. Do you also have collection?

I also have a magnet collection!
I started collecting magnets about 30 years ago. I have some very old and very unique magnets. I think I have over 300. I have some very old Avon magnets and so many more. It is a fun item to collect. I stopped buying them a year or two ago. I also have a tea accessories collection and a collection of books about cats. But your sister collecting magnets interested me because I've never known anyone, besides myself, who collected them before. How interesting!

Zippo is a good lighter. If you keep it long enough it might be worth money one day. And if some of my magnets are antiques I must be an antique as well!
I think the Avon magnets may be worth something some day. But my magnets are mostly high quality in unique styles. One is an old fashioned looking case of Coca Cola. It's plastic but the case is made to look like wood and it has 12 bottles inside that come out and each bottle has a magnet on the back of it. I've never seen another one like it, although I looked on the internet. It was a gift I got about 20 years ago. They are fun to collect.

Magnets? Only 15 in 2 years time? I am not collecting them but we already have way more as 15 in my house. Nearly everything seems to be a magnet now a days. Including many toys and games. Or is she collecting only a special kind of magnets? I don't have a collection anymore. I did collect sugar bags years ago. Acutually I took over the collection of my aunt. Great sugar bags she had. My youngest started with collecting hem as well but she is not very fanatic (which means she doesn't mind to eat it as well).
