There's nothing worse than getting to the check-in counter at an airport and realising your bags are too heavy, and the embarrassing mistake can soon turn costly depending on airline luggage fees (which tend to vary).

However, Amazon shoppers are in luck because for a limited time, you can save over £8 on the FREETOO Portable Digital Luggage Scale, which is now just £11.89.

It's perfect for having at home before you travel to your next destination.

The advanced scale has a maximum capacity of 50kg and a deviation of no more than 0.01 kg, meaning precise measurements every time.

You'll be able to see your measurements on the easy-to-read LCD display, as well as four different units to weigh in: pounds (lb), grams (g), ounces (oz), and kilograms (kg).

With the inclusion of an auto-lock and tare function, the scale obtains an accurate reading with minimal effort. It weighs a lightweight 90g and is compact enough to carry with ease wherever you go.

Notably, the scale is equipped with an auto power-off feature, to conserve energy, whilst a low battery indicator ensures peace of mind.
