cigarette butt dispenser: This is a non-sense. One must not confuse "to dispense" (meaning "to distribute") with "to dispose of" (meaning to eliminate). A "dispenser" is not an object intended for the disposing out of something, but for the distribution of something. 2, record 1, English, - butt%20can

Boîte à mégots. L'entrée en vigueur de la loi sur le tabac [...] donnera sans doute un grand coup de pouce aux fabricants de cendriers extérieurs et de fumoirs. «Les Entreprises Butt Stop» ont pris une longueur d'avance en commercialisant des boîtes métalliques, avec orifices, d'où les cigarettes s'éteignent toutes seules. [...] La boîte Butt-Stop se détaille 160 $ ou 260 $, selon la qualité. 3, record 1, French, - bo%C3%AEte%20%C3%A0%20m%C3%A9gots

Le mégotier ci-contre [baril rempli de sable servant à recueillir les mégots, illustration non reproduite] se trouve dans une cave à vins en Bourgogne. Il est assez gros pour être visible. Il serait commode d'en avoir ici à la porte de plusieurs de nos immeubles dont l'entrée est jonchée de mégots. 5, record 1, French, - bo%C3%AEte%20%C3%A0%20m%C3%A9gots

Il n'est pas toujours essentiel d'inscrire la fonction du contenant sur celui-ci. Une simple mention comme «cendrier» ou un pictogramme peuvent suffire. «Butt Stop» est une marque déposée. Nous avons aussi vu la marque «Cig-Arrêt» (malheureux calque de l'anglais). 4, record 1, French, - bo%C3%AEte%20%C3%A0%20m%C3%A9gots
