Hey people I want to get a body fat caliper so i can measure my bodyfat.... does anyone here know where i can get one and how to use it I have no idea.... Ive been told that I am around 12-14% but i want to be sure...... thx people!
I got a pair of calipers for 15$ from GNC. Call around to a couple supplement or fitness stores I'm sure you can find some. Using them is pretty simple and it should come with something explaining the proper use. Here's a good site for calculating BF % with calipers:

Go to your school's gym or health center, they should have something

You could always just do what i do...
1) Stand in front of a mirror
2) Flex
3) Jump up and down...
If it jiggles, you're too fat =) lol
Nah, GNC sells calipers pretty cheap.. Or see if your gym will do it for you.

The local GNC should have it, if not then go to some health place I am sure they have it all.
