    Postal Scale

    Can anyone recommend a decent Postal scale?

    I just need it to get weight not to print postage.

    thanks

    Just get one at your post office

    I think they're like 30 dollars-ish

    Probably could get a cheaper one at Walmart

      My 10 lb. cost $40 at the post office.
      They have less weight scales, but I went extra and got this.
      It plugs in the wall or a 9 volt battery. Not sure if this is the norm, I didn't look after I got this.

        Office Supply stores like Staples and Office Depot offer them at prices cheaper than the Post Office.

        We have one and it has always been accurate.

          A kitchen scale would also work. Those go on sale some times. Or a second hand store might have one.

                  Most of them are fine.

                  The post office lets you ship within a range of weight so it isn't really necessary to have a digital scale that measures to a 1/10th of a lb. We bought just a standard postage scale at one of the office supply stores and have never had any problems since we usually print off the postage from home and have our postman pick it up from our home.
