Cheap kitchen scales?

buzz3d269 · February 2015

Hi all, not sure where the best place to post this was...

I'm currently traveling in the US, and would like to buy some kitchen scales to weigh up my food when I'm in one place for a while. I was wondering where the best place to buy some from are - I had a glance at target, but they were all about $25-$30. Am I likely to find any cheaper? Suggestions?

If it helps, I'm currently in Tucson, AZ.

Thanks

I got one at Target for $30 and am returning it! It fell apart taking it out of the box! I think I am going to just invest in a good one for the house. However, if you are just using for a few days/weeks a cheap one (I saw one for $5.99 at Target) might just suffice.

I hate WalMart, but I'm on a budget. Mine was less than $20 and works great. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Professional-Electronic-Kitchen-Scale/38241740

I also got mine at Walmart for under $20. I love it.

I've had the Biggest Loser kitchen scale for about 6 years now. I've replaced the battery twice and it's still working great. You can find it for $20 or less. It's $15.61 on Amazon now.

I bought mine for $15-$20 dollars a year ago from Walmart. Its digital, it still works well. I recommend checking that out. Other than that, Amazon. You can set specific search perimeters for price and find one with good reviews. Good luck!

Edit: My scale is actually the one @csch79‌ posted. It works really well, I recommend it.

Ivation Lightweight Digital Kitchen on Amazon is working out very nicely for me. Got it about a month ago and I really like it.

I bought mine on Amazon $9.99 in May 2014. I haven't had any issues with it and I haven't had to change the batteries yet. I use it everyday, several times a day. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DGLU1SG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I got mine from Canadian Tire for $18. Its Starfrit, a very sleek little thing that I can easily fit in my purse if I need to.
