albertiger Posted April 7, 2006 #1 Share Posted April 7, 2006 saw this on AOL mainpage today, a suitcase with a built in digital scale on top near the handle! Comes in 2 sizes 25 and 28 inch, both about $200 by Ricardo. Now thats what I call a worthwhile invention!;) (it already knows its own weight too!)

Nancyquilts Posted April 7, 2006 #2 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Nice to know there's always something new. We bought our family hand-held scales for Christmas a year ago, so that works on any suitcase. Nancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisingChick Posted April 7, 2006 #3 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Too bad I already have 2 28 inch suiters, a 29 inch suiter, a rolling garment bag and many other assorted suitcase sets. I did see a portable scale in the Magellan catalog that I'm thinking of buying. http://www.magellans.com/store/Packing_Aids___Packing_OrganizersKT689?Args= At least twice now my bags have been over the limit and I'm at the airport at 5:30 AM rearranging things. Not fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonLou Posted April 7, 2006 #5 Share Posted April 7, 2006 It is a fabulous idea! I'm tired of my wife telling me to pick up the luggage and stand on the scale. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rollie Posted April 7, 2006 #6 Share Posted April 7, 2006 DonLou, your comment cracked me up. That exactly what I have to do everytime we travel. Rollie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzeyQ Posted April 7, 2006 #7 Share Posted April 7, 2006 What a great idea, especially since they're being so strict now about weight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeriNP Posted April 7, 2006 #8 Share Posted April 7, 2006 My packing strategy always works - I make a list of everything I could possibly need, lay it all out on the bed, then I put half of it back. Whatever's left is what I take, and I STILL don't wear everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
