Self-Weighing Baggage
My girlfriend
recently missed a flight because her baggage was too heavy at check-in. By the time she was able to sort it out,
it was too late to board.
For those of you who tend to stuff a few too many heavy objects into your bags, and then nervously worry during check-in that you will have to pay absurdly expensive surcharges for the extra weight, then we’ve got just the product for you! Ricardo Beverly Hills manufactures a suitcase that automatically weighs itself. A digital display near the handle ticks off the poundage contained within and lets you know when you need to take out that fifth pair of shoes or extra hairdryer; heavy suitcases will be a thing of the past! Yeah, right…

But, um, how much does the added technology weigh? If it means I can't bring back that extra bottle of wine...
