I'm looking to purchase a heart rate monitor. I'm a college student on a budget, so I would like something that works for good value. I also don't want anything bulky or obnoxious - does anyone have any recommendations?

    Take a look at a couple and then check for them on ebay.

    I got my current hrm for $40 off ebay, was still new in packaging.
    (Polar RS300x)

    I have just got the polar ft4, easy to use and not too expensive, got mine off amazon.

    I'm very happy with my $69 Amazon purchase. http://www.amazon.com/Quality-Navigation-Sports-Monitor-Compass/dp/B005IYSAOQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1371392809&sr=8-1&keywords=gps+navigator+watch

    It's not only a heart rate monitor but a gps watch as well. The watch itself is about twice the thickness of a regular slim little sports watch, but there's a lot packed into it. I've had no problems with mine and easily sync'd it to my computer. Had it up and running, gps signal and sync'd in under 15 minutes.
