Posting my first deal. Hopefully I'm doing it right.
Was looking to spend my giftcard in store at JB when I noticed the deal a few weeks ago. I like an inexpensive heart rate monitor. However they didn't have any stock left and deal eventually expired. Appears this deal is back on now. Reviews seem average though.

Welcome OP - good first post :)
Hi all, to help fellow OZB peeps I have one of these. Feedback:
In summary - I like it! I would buy it again, and this is a good price.
I use the heart rate feature which is very accurate.
I also use the body fat % feature which is unique to this fitness tracker and at this price point you can't go wrong. They charge $50 to test your body fat at the Gym (its a con they do but still). You could always buy scales that also test this for you but I do like having it on the band and tracking it in their App.
It tracks sleep patterns but after wearing this the first couple of nights to bed I couldn't see the value in tracking my sleep.
The band is very comfy and sturdy, although attaches via two nodules that line up to holes which is a bit strange and on the very odd occasion can come loose, but this keeps it comfy.
It automatically wakes up if you raise your hand to look at the time which is convenient, and buzzes when you get a text or phone call and shows the person (if in your contacts) or number.
… and of course it tracks steps.
The App is pretty good and compares as good to the fitbit App I used to use imo.
Hope this helps!
