you move your digital scale to 7 different places in the same room and get 7 different readings, the lowest and highest of which are 7 pounds apart.......
haha
(I'm going with the lowest one)

LOL, I would too, of course it is the higher value that is most likely to be true, a scale not perpendicular to the direction of gravity will always read lower than true, for instance, if at ten degrees off level, your weight, say 150 lbs, would read 150 x cos(10)=147
However, if you are getting different readings it means your abode isn't just simply not level but not flat either. On a flat surface, regardless of angle, you will get the same reading no matter where you move the scale, so you either have a damaged scale, a really warped floor, or very uneven flooring. I advice using a board or large book under the scale leveled with shims.
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

You know you are a girl when you move your scale 7 times to get a better answer?
