Howdy W.I.S.H. DISer's....I am looking to purchase a pedometer. My budget is about $25.00. Any suggestions. I want a real simple one...tells me my steps. Period. I do not need one that whistles, sings, tells the time etc. :laughing: Just the steps.
I bought two different ones from Target by Sportline. First one; after 3.5 months the battery died. :headache: Bought another one; more $$ and that will work sometimes and other times after walking 15 minutes if has recorded 20 steps. :headache: Back to Target. Return.
Any ideas?? TIA!! :goodvibes

The best is the Omron - it doesn't work like the regular ones (none of that tick tock mechanism).
It can be carried in your pocket - which I love - doesn't have to be upright.
Product Features
Unique dual sensor technology means the pedometer can be carried in your pocket or bag
Accurately measures your steps, as well as aerobic steps and minutes
Also measures calorie consumption during your workout, as well as the distance you've traveled
Easy-to-read LCD display
Comes with a detachable belt holder and security strap

Thank you so much, Melanie...I am off to buy THAT one!!! PERFECT, right in with my budget plan as well!!! :thumbsup2
I LOVE having/using a pedometer. DH and I try 10,000 steps daily (each evening) and 20,000 on Sat and again on Sun.........not having a pedometer with us that works properly has been ANNOYING!!!!
Many thanks, again. :goodvibes
Ohhh and the reviews look awesome!!!! :thumbsup2
