Hey everybody! Hope you are enjoying the day.

I have a quick question...Where can I find an inexpensive (max. $25.) but decent digital scale? I've never owned one and the only time I got weighed was at doctor visits. I haven't been to a doc in 2 years so I've been guessing my weight and hope I'm over-guessing :wink:

Thank you and have a great weekend and to all you fellow moms out there Happy Mother's Day :flowerforyou:

    I recently bought a digital scale at Wal-Mart for $25. It says that I am the same weight as the dr's office - so it's accurate!!

    I just ordered this one on amazon.com and it is awesome!

    It is $28.95 but offers free shipping. I got it in 3 days. It had the highest ratings too. I stepped on my old digital scales, which works but didn't give 10ths of a pound like this one. They were EXACTLY the same and very accurate. My 2 year old was weighed at the dr.s office and I put her on there as soon as we got home and it was dead on!

    I know it is $3 over your price range, but the thing is awesome.

    I got mine from the Walmart website for $25, its a Taylor brand digital, and EXTREMELY accurrate! Id stay away from the Health-o-meter brand though.. my experience with those they are always off, and they didnt get good reviews either...

    I got mine from walmart....maybe $20. I just steer clear of the ones with memory and stuff that store your past weights. I go simple. :)

    The only problem is how accurate is it? i have a cheap, (Non digital) scale, but find it weighs rouphly 10 pounds light, not only that, all scales weigh differently, it depends on how their calibrated??? So the question is, what is accurate????

    Walmart and Target are good but you can always find decent scales for cheap the only thing that really matters is that when you buy one you only weigh in on that one. Since all scales are off by a couple of pounds. You can weigh at the Dr. and the scale say one thing then weigh at home and it could be different. For all you know it is the Drs. scale that is wrong.
