Update (11/16 5:00pm): Neweggflash offers the Fitbit Flex in multiple colors for $59.99 with free shipping.
Activity trackers provide great motivation for getting off the couch. The Fitbit Flex leads the field at the moment, and 9to5Toys Specials currently has refurbished models for $70 shipped — 30% off the regular price.
By measuring the steps you take, distance you cover and the calories you burn, this Fitbit lets you see exactly how much exercise you are getting. You can then set yourself personal goals, such as hitting a certain number of steps every day. The Flex is also able to measure your sleep patterns, and if you tell it what food you are eating, it will keep track of your intake, too. You wear the device on your wrist, or just keep it in a pocket, with the collected data sent wirelessly to your phone or computer. Via the Fitbit app, you can then view your progress. The Flex has a battery life of five whole days, and it is water-resistant, too.
You can currently grab a refurbished Fitbit Flex at the deal price, with free shipping to the Continental US, and a choice of three colors (Grey, Black, and Blue).
