Fitbit help

I bought a Fitbit a little over a week ago, and despite only just getting my head around its data and adjustments, I know it was a great investment (used from eBay, but practically brand new...and cheaper!)

My problem is, that I need a docking/synching station both at home, and at work. I founded and run a charity and can spend a great amount of my day there, but can't check on my daily progress until I get home, sometimes after 9pm.

If anyone in the UK has a docking station, that for any reason is spare, or knows someone who has, please let me know. I am willing to pay a good price as well as postage obviously.

I hope somebody can help!

    You know you can check the display on the Fitbit itself, right?

    ^^^This.

    And I believe you can order a dock from the website.

    Somebody else was after another docking station on MFP, and they wrote to Fitbit and Fitbit supplied another. Not sure if they would for a fitbit bought 2nd hand though, but it's worth asking

    Another option would be to carry the dock in your purse so you can use it in both places, that is what I do when I want to check it at work. You can use the same cable on as many computers as you like.

    I only have the one docking station, but you can check your progress on the display of the actual fitbit - just keep pressing the button and it will take you through each thing (steps, floors, miles travelled, calories burned etc). I usually like to wait and see when I get home (sometimes it is a nice surprise finding out you've done more than you think or more often I've done less than I wanted to) ;o)

    Yeah, I do check the display, but I guess I just like to see everything at once, against my goals as shown on the fit bit website.
    Thanks for the suggestions, I will look on the website for the docking station prices and decide from there.

    Many thanks
