1. A dual magnetic interlocking pin system for attaching an item comprising: a. a chamber having an opening, at least a bottom wall, a side wall having a side wall top and wherein the side wall is connected to the bottom wall opposite the side wall top;b. a magnetically attractable inner plate fixed within the chamber adjacent the bottom wall;c. a free moving magnet with a first magnet flat side and a second magnet flat side opposite the first magnet flat side, wherein the free moving magnet is disposed in the chamber for moving between the opening and the magnetically attractable inner plate, wherein the free moving magnet is not removable from the chamber, and wherein the free moving magnet provides a magnetic field with a first field size;d. a first outer plate secured to the side wall top having a thickness and magnetic attraction strong enough to movably hold the free moving magnet adjacent the first outer plate; ande. an engagement pin comprising: (i) a pin head;(ii) a pin stem connected to the pin head, and wherein the pin stem has a diameter small enough to slidably move inside the chamber and the pin stem comprises a magnetically attractable material capable of moving the free moving magnet from a position adjacent the magnetically attractable inner plate to a position adjacent the first outer plate, wherein the pin stem moves relative to the opening, and wherein the pin stem is selectively removable from the chamber; and(iii) wherein when the pin stem is inside the chamber the free moving magnet moves to engage the magnetically attractable inner plate. 2. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 1, wherein the item is a lighter, a flashlight, a keychain, a writing utensil, a lip care product, a cosmetic product, a medicine bottle, a memory card, a MP3 player, a portable media, a cell phone, a wallet, a cigarette case, eyeglass cases, eyeglasses, sunglasses, horse bridals, wake boards, or ski boots. 3. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 1, wherein the first outer plate is secured to the side wall using a fastening means selected from a group: an adhesive, a fastener, an epoxy, other bonding materials, or combinations thereof. 4. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 3 wherein the first outer plate is removably secured to the side wall. 5. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 1, wherein the chamber is round or polygon. 6. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 1, wherein the pin stem is cylindrical, conical, or polygonal with at least one pin stem flat face for engaging the first magnet flat side. 7. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 1, wherein the chamber comprises a left side wall and a right side wall. 8. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 1, wherein the free moving magnet is a cylindrical-shaped magnet or a cube-shaped magnet. 9. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 8, wherein the free moving magnet is a solid magnet and all sides of the magnet are magnetic. 10. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 9, wherein the free moving magnet is a rare earth metal magnet. 11. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 1, wherein the pin stem and the pin head are a two piece unit. 12. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 11, wherein the pin head is removably attachable to the pin stem. 13. The dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 11, wherein the pin head and the pin stem are made of ferromagnetic material. 14. The a dual magnetic interlocking pin system of claim 11, wherein the pin head has a diameter larger than the pin stem.
