Now That's a Gadget I Can Use!

I know that I seem obsessed with our last trip to the States.  So please bear with me.  One of the things that makes your heart beat faster is when you are checking into the airlines and you put that first bag on their scale.
You are right...it is over.  How can that be you ask?  I know that we weigh and re-weigh ever bag at least 4 times.  How do we do this?  With the bathroom scale.  It really is quite funny to watch.  Someone usually me lifts the bag, balances it on the scale, and then lifts so that the other person can read the weight.  We never seem to get the same reading.  You can also stand on the scale with the bag in your hand and then subtract your weight from the total.  I never opt for this version as I hate math!

Well we have ordered a hand held digital scale to weigh our bags on our next trip.  There are several out there.  

Supposedly, you just wrap the strap around the handle of your bag, lift and it digitally gives you a read-out.
Sure hope it works as well as it is advertised.  I hate transferring items at the airline counter.
