Acetone, where art thou?

I just don't get it, where the hell did all those bottles of acetone gone? Can't find it the supermarket, drugstore/pharmacy nor hardware store. I even asked my sis in the big city to look and so far none came up. Did the company making it gone bust? Did some nut swallow gallons of it and got poisoned so it was pulled outta shelves everywhere? I need it to wipe off laser toner off my printed circuit board coz its easier to use than anything else. But now where can I buy it? Not in this country? Sheesh.

Recent buy

Bought a multipurpose bench for exercise during a recent midnight sale:

It's an Impex Marcy SB240. The two small foam handles seem to be a nuisance but I understand their purpose, they're there to grab onto when doing leg raises. I do wish there was an additional stop between the topmost and mid position settings. I couldn't buy a more substantial bench, i.e. one which could hold a barbell since my residence is an old wooden house and a heavy bench could collapse the thing, so this would do. Used this last night and it was good.
