This handy scale is the perfect tool for those of us watching our calories. Not only does it weigh your food, but it also analyzes the nutritional content of the food by portion size and calculates calories, protein, carbohydrate, total sugars, total fat, fiber, sodium, cholesterol, net carbohydrates and G.I. value. It has stored nutritional values for over 1400 foods and will store data for 100 recipes. What a great help this would be!

This lock will keep all your luggage secure from sticky-fingered baggage handlers, but they still let the TSA in to inspect your luggage if the need arises. If the TSA does need to inspect your luggage, the locks notify you that they’ve been opened (there’s a small green/red security window that can only be reset by entering the password). These are great gifts for anyone who travels - and they’re only $11.

Not only do they fit better, but they are waterproof, they have an extension cable, and they have a magnetic piece that helps clip them to their holder. These are a must accessory for any iPod user!
