Title: Handy little scales!
Post by: Teamroper on January 12, 2011, 02:24:24 PM
I picked this set of scales on Amazon but you can get them on Ebay too. They run from about $7-$10 sent to the house. The scales go up to 88 lbs. One big plus that I like about them is that they also have a thermometer in them. The only problem is that it records in Celcius.  :confused: Just remember the number and do the conversion when you get home.  :wink:

All and all I really like mine. It reads out to hundredths on the scale and it has a tare button and will lock when the weight settles down. And last, it weighs just ounces.

This is what is it called on Amazon and Ebay-  40Kg 28g Digital Hanging Luggage Fishing Weight Scale
Just paste and copy that title and it should come up.

If you mentioned Celsius around here to some people they would think the Romans were coming!  :alscalls:

You only get 100 degrees to go from frozen to boiling.  We get more.  Isn't more better than less.  (I know, this one is going to bite me in the butt.)

  Don't make a lot of cents to target Canadians with their less than 10% of your population :confused:.  Maybe there is something afoot down there that you guys don't know about yet :eyebrow:, check wiki for further updates :alscalls:.
