Default Need A Good Scale But Don't Want To Pay Too Much For It

Can anybody recommend a good scale for me to purchase? I'm thinking a digital one would be best but I don't want to pay an arm & a leg for it.

Can anybody suggest a good scale to purchase?

Thank you!

I bought this scale at Linens N Things with one of those 40% off coupons they're always sending out. I really like it.

The Weight Watchers scale is really good, but a little pricey...good luck!

The scale I have is from Costco and it's a Health O Meter. It's not digital, but it's the same one as my doctor's office has. It's very accurate, and with a coupon they had at the time, I only paid $25 for it.

I have a Healthometer digital scale which weighs in .2 increments up to 330 lbs or 150 kg and has a memory for 2 people (I think, I threw the box out). If you use the memory function, it will tell you what you have lost or gained since the last time you weighed. This is a pretty simple scale, no BMI calculators or anything and it cost me around $25 at WalMart.

I have also known other people to get great deals on scales from ebay.

I think I have the same scale as melekalikimaka (geez, that took me a half hour to type that name )..

That Healthometer scale from Walmart is very accurate...we check ours all the time with 5 and 10 lb. weights, and it is spot on every time.
