Default Food Scale?

Hi All,
I am looking for opinions on digital food scales, are there any out there that are more preferred then others and are there ones that aren't worth even looking at? I just want to get a general take on things before I purchase one.
I am following the Beck Diet Solution with portion control and calorie counting as my two diet choices at the moment.
Thanks everyone
Jaye aka Midnightsun68

I got my cheap scale from Walmart for under $10, and tested it by weighing packets that have weight measured on the side- it's very accurate. I don't see any reason to buy a more expensive scale.

enjoynlife~ Biggest Loser makes a digital scale. It is a little more expensive ($15-18 depending where you go). I looked it up and it got nice reviews. I am looking for a scale. I will be getting this one.
