Guest guest Posted December 21, 1999 Report Share Posted December 21, 1999 Hi again Carol. >Thanks for your advise. I have seen postal scales available at Costco that >measure down to tenth's of an ounce. Would something like that work? >Carol Yes, as long as it also measures in grams and has a tare function on it. Most scales that you buy today are battery or electric operated, I have older manual scales and I can only turn the tare function back so far and that is it, so I am not sure how the electric ones work as to maximum weight you can weigh. This could be important if you ever want to make large batches of soap, you will need a scale that can accommodate the weight of your container-preferably the mixing pot-and the weight of your oils.

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2000 Report Share Posted May 6, 2000 > I am having difficulity finding a digital scale that weights ounces. > Ex. 2.2, 2.5, etc. Hi Dorothy. I just bought a scale that was delivered a couple of days ago. It reads in grams or ounces, can be plugged in or operate on batteries. It will read to 0.1 gram, I'm not sure about the percent in ounces as I was interested in gram weight only. As this list does not allow us to mention suppliers I will email a link to you in a separate email. If anyone else wants the link, email me at the address listed below. Pat.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2001 Report Share Posted May 14, 2001 Try looking on Ebay or any other auction site. I bought one via Ebay. It just arrived and I haven't opened it yet, but there were many different types available. I got mine at the best price I had seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2001 Report Share Posted May 14, 2001 careful of the ones u buy on ebay, most of those are not worth it and they are over charging on them. There is one thats selling like mad on there now that has a lithium battery, you CANNOT replace the battery once it dies, you have to toss the whole scale..Oh shoot, I cannot remember the name of it, but there are hundreds of this one brand being sold on ebay and other auctions..I like the one I got from scalesusa.com and it has a 9v or a plug in (ac/dc) choice, which is really nice.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 You guys are a riot. Thanks for the laughs. I know they'll make this a much more enjoyable experience. I like your idea of hiding the scales. I'll just set them in the middle of my teenage daughtes bedroom floor and they'll sink into the pile. The problem would be finding them on the 8th week.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2003 Report Share Posted May 1, 2003 ----- Original Message ----- From: " Scarlet Hunter " <scarlet_hunter@...> > I do not have a scale at home. I think if I did, I > woulD surely have a much harder time at this. I think this is just one of those YMMV things. I need those numbers to stare me in the face every morning. Of course there's a fine line between using it as a tool and having it as an obsession. Someone told me that a recent study found that weighing often does help with weight loss. I looked at cnn.com and my local news website but I can't find any details. Has anyone heard of this study? Ann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
