Bad Pedometer

I love to use pedometers. I like to challenge myself.
Anyway, I bought a new pedometer at Ollie's a few weeks ago. I thought I was set.
The only good thing about the darn contraption is that it has a clock. When I am on my feet for hours, instead of saying 10,000 steps, it says 700 steps! So, the steps part does not work. Major bummer.
I do not have the box or receipt. Anyways, the Ollie's store is quite a drive from my house.
The only pedometers I have ever had good luck with are Walmart pedometers. I guess after Christmas I can purchase one.

I've not used one, but know many do and keep track of what they do daily. Sorry yours isn't working. Ollie's might be aware of this issue and just exchange it for you the next time you are there.

The location is too far away to bother. Thank you for the advice though.

I am using a fitbit as the cheaper ones dont seem to work too good.

I don't use such devices. Sorry that you seemingly got a hold of a lemon one. Hope you can find one that works after Christmas. We have an Ollie's about 25-30 minutes away, went in a time or two wasn't that impressed with it. I don't believe I bought anything.
