Hello all. I lost my first Fitbit ZIP the other day and was wondering if anyone could recommend a cheaper alternative? I just need the basics like, Steps, Distance, Calories Burned.... I was hope to get one around $20-$25... Any suggestions?

    I bought a basic pedometer from Walmart a while ago for $15. It's pretty accurate on distance. I don't worry about calories burned because I track those here. By the way, it even survived a trip through the washing machine.

    I believe Sport Stores like Modell's, Sport Authority, or Dick's would have the non-expensive ones that you latch to you pants that aren't too expensive. I would recommend checking out those stores/sites and seeing if there's anything you like.

    There are a few used Fitbit Zips on Ebay right now for that price.

    gb.mapometer.com/ is free. Handy if you're running outdoors and just need distance and calories.

    I don't use one, you can't get much cheaper than that! :)

    I think the misfit is relatively inexpensive.

    Your phone may be able to do it too, i know mine can track steps as long as I leave it in my pocket and then translate it to distance/cals with some additional input
