This is a digital pedometer that you can actually carry in your purse or pocket and not have to clip on. Unlike my old pedometer than clicked all the time and people could hear it even if I had it under my shirt, this one is silent. I find it is really good and worth the money.

I have been using the Omron pedometer for years - lost one so had to buy another - Walmart used to carry them but don't any more......Where can you buy them now? Also another good feature is that it stores a week's worth of information in it.

I'm on my second one (lost one on a trip) and love it- in a pinch I keep it in my sportsbra!

I have an Omron too and I love it!

Love that Omron's are silent. Doesn't seem like an unresonable thing to ask of the manufacturers.

I have an Omron and find that they are very accurate!

After looking at different models and reading various reviews on pedometers, I had actually decided earlier today that this was the particular pedometer I was going to purchase. Glad to hear you like it--I'm looking forward to getting mine later this week.

Every Step Counts
The Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer is a must buy if you are looking for a great pedometer. This little gadget counts your steps no matter if you have it on your belt, in your pocket or stuffed in your bag. It is programmable, has four functions and a 7 day memory.

I purchased mine on Amazon.com. I even purchased one for my sister. 57312311342231313
If you already wear a badge on a lanyard at work, why not add a pedometer? I wear a cute handmade lanyard from Etsy with my badge and an Omron HJ-203 ($20 @ Amazon) "pocket" pedometer. I like not having to connect to my waist, and my dress shoes lack shoelaces, so the lanyard is the way to go. Plus it's cute, and it has a handy clock to boot!
MORE INFORMATION:
I added a jump ring (very cheap, used for jewelry, see your local craft store) so the pedometer can be detached & worn in pockets on evenings, weekends. They come in pink (mine), yellow, purple, and black. When you make 10K steps, there's a little guy in there that cheers!
From the time I get out of bed in the morning until the time I go to bed at night I wear a pedometer. Sometimes I forget to take it off when I go to bed, DH says it's so I get all the steps from sleepwalking counted. My goal is to get 10,000 steps per day. I am lost without my trusty Omron pedometer.
MORE INFORMATION:
This is the pedometer I have and love, Omron HJ-720ITC Pocket Pedometer with Advanced Omron Health Management Software. I got it from Amazon.com.
