    Can I justify $94.94 for tupperware scales?

    My kitchen scales are useless and I really need some new ones. I don't use them that much really - only bake about once a fortnight. Have always thought I might get the tupperware scales but got the latest catalogue and they are $94.95!!! Do you think you could justify spending that on scales?/ they have a "limited 2 year warranty". If they had a lifetime replacement like some of the tupperware does, I would go for it.

    i have chefstoolbox ones that are about same price, but i bought mine in a bundle with some cooking utensils and baking things for $150.

    I have not baked since ds was born so scales have been hardly used but i know i have them and they are good quality.

    Well being an ex-demonstrator i would say yes i can justify paying the $94.95 ......Tupperware will last you forever which is why i justify paying the extra, it's like everything else you pay for quality!

    Hmmm they aren't covered by a lifetime warranty. My scales are now nearly 8 yrs old and still working fine! Only changed the batteries once! Don't get me wrong I love tupperware... I have a HUGE plasticware fetish heh. But I still can't justify their scales JMHO don't shoot me down
