Perfect Present For The Travel Junky: Digital Luggage Scales

I just love finding great gifts like this. I'm for-ever trying to get my suitcase on the scales at home and trying to see if I've gone over the weight limit. I'm normally found jiggling around and lifting the case up quickly to try and get a look at the read-out before it returns to zero. But now I don't have to do that if someone bought me a digital luggage scale.

You see nurses weigh babies with things like this. But you're probably thinking that you can't lift up a suitcase with one hand and try and measure it. Or your thinking that your parents or grandparents couldn't possibly use it. Well think again.

Its extremely easy to use as you don't actually have to lift up your case. All you do is attach it and gently pull. When the slack is taken and it begins to lift off the ground then read the weight.

They're also very light scales so you can chuck them in the case (leaving enough room and weight) and you can use them for your return journey when you've bought have the nation's supply of wine, fags and sombreros.

You can get the digital luggage scales from I Want One Of Those for £19.99 or Drinkstuff.com for £19.95.
