David, Cabela's has one for $32 and I have it. Works fine for me. The reviews say good and bad, but I always wonder if some of them know how to really use it.
I would've taken better care of myself,if I'd known I was gonna live this long!

I recently bought an X-Spot portable bow scale from 3-Rivers.  It gets good reviews and works great.

I bought a luggage scale at Wally World for $8 that works well.

Every once in a while I will test it by weighing a new bag of dog food or cat litter or whatever and its always dead-on.

I like the old fashioned mechanical Hansen scale, it's what you see in most bow shops and is practically bullet proof!

Farm supply/feed stores have them sometimes. Google          Hanson Viking scale.
