    I would go to a discount store and go over to the exercise equipment and get a 30# dumb bell then take that with you to the scales. If they don't come with batteries, I would get a pack (which I would buy on the way out) to go test them. I would only get a digital; most have recent chips that are very consistent. I would weigh the dumb bell and make sure it registers 30. Then I would weigh myself. Don't get self conscious about what it says; this is fully clothed during the day. Just remember the number. Step off, pick up the dumb bell and weigh again. It should be the previous weight plus 30. Repeat the test and make sure you get the same numbers.

    I really like the EatSmart Digital bathroom scale that I bought on Amazon a couple of months ago. It does not have the quirks that I have experienced with other digital scales.

    Me too! I have been to the doctor twice since I got one and weighed before I went. It was spot on both times.
