Last time I asked for a scale that measured grams they looked at me like I was a drug dealer!

I bought one from Target.  It's called Chefmate 3-in-1 Digital scale.  Make sure you pick one that can weigh in both ounces and grams.  It costs $29.99 (tax not included).

I have a "LS-40 My Weigh" desktop scale. I have been using for few years, and is very good. It has gram and oz. You can switch between weight.
 
Just search the net for "My Weigh". You may find one in ebay.

If u were as good looking as myelf, u could go to ur corner store postal outlet to bother those old ladies, if any, to bother/ask them to weigh ur blades or combos for u for free...And she/they always said to me, after the weigh-in, "there u go, honey/sweetie! Would there be anyth'n else, dear?" I normally get this chore done for FREE!

Problem is you have to make sure that the old ladies are there when you need them, otherwise you will go there for nothingBig%20smile. The best would be to have one digital scale for ourselves.

@ Aeoliah..that was meant to be a silly joke. I happened to know that old lady for years n years. I know when she's on/off duty. I also happen to have a kitchen scale from CanadianTires. Also we have a digital scale in our office.

I bought this  scale from oldwillknottscales and have been very happy with it.  I ordered mine with the calibration weight.  The guy who sold it to me was very knowledgeable and shipping was fast.
