Has anyone got Weight Watcher scales? We bought some yesterday in T**** but are having to take them back today. sometimes they will activate and sometimes not. Wondered if anyone else had the same problem with them.

Sorry, Ann although I need a new scales, I don't know about the T**** one. I have a very old one which I nudge along the bathroom floor until it shows what I consider to be an acceptable weight! BC XX

The ones I had kept telling me that they only worked with one person at a time on them.

AnninGlos Report 4 Jan 2012 12:57

Lol! But you can have an awful lot of fun taking turns to jump on and off to see if you can activate them.

Thankyou for that, Merlin, ha b****y ha! :-P

Ann, I have just had a look at the WW website and, I must say, the scales certainly do more than normal ones. I had a look at the instructions and wondered if you are putting in your own user numbers before you use them each time.

The ones we have don't have anywhere to input user numbers Wend theya re just basic scales. (320). I think the others may be more expensive. I'll leave it up as a fun thread for now.

Just looked on the web and I reckon they are made specifically for Tesco.

Wend

Wend Report 4 Jan 2012 15:26

Ah, I see. You'll probably have to take them back then. Very annoying!

AnninGlos Report 4 Jan 2012 16:05
