Walk-O-Meters!

Has anyone got one of these?

I've got one - I had to email their support team though, it took around 3 months to arrive!

It's tres funky

You can order one from the walkers website - http://www.walkers.co.uk.

They count how many steps you take, and if you reach the recommended amount - 10000 steps!

My sister just got her walkers walk-o-meter today (we ordered it in November and then forgot about it!) and it is pretty cool. I like to shake it, see how high I can get the number to go before I get bored. I'm going to wear it to school one day, very fun.

I had one, but my sister submerged it in water so I threw it away. It broke.

We got one in a box of Special K a while ago. I wonder where it is? Anyway, they are pretty nifty, and kinda fun.

Some of my friends have them lol. Yeah they're pretty cool

Hm.. well, I have a pedometer. I bought it for christmas, realised I had no one to give it to, so I kept it.

Some girls in my class bought Walk - O - Meters but I've never had one. I have a Skip - It (from when I was about seven and thought it was great) but I don't think I could walk around with that somehow XD

Oh wow, that sounds cool. Too bad they don't have that offer over here

I wanted to get one from McDonald's.

Skip-it...skip-it, everybody skip-it!

How does it know how many steps you take? O.o;; I want one just to try and fool it.

They're pretty fun if you put them on in the morning and completely forget about them.

The highest I've gotten, without cheating, is something like 8k of steps.

I think if they bounce they count it as a step. I used to cheat with my old Digimon toy by shaking it a lot.

Walk-o-meters...*funny story*

Well, not really (tisn't really a story), but I'll go on anyways.

I ordered some bows from Shar (string instrument supply shot), and I found a pedometer in with the packing puffies. I think an employee must have dropped his/hers--it was one of those that came from McDonalds.

My mom gave me one, but I seem to have misplaced it. I believe the real term is "pedometer." It's always fun to bring one to work, since we do a LOT of walking around. One guy wore one and clocked in over 40,000 steps in an 11-hour period (the recommended daily amount is 10,000)!

hehe...thats's were I got mine. Got a green one with one of those adult salad meals they used to have. I wish they would've kept those, I liked those.
