No no, I have the same "piece of shit" as Noobie.  But mine works.  Guess I'm just lucky.

You can thank walmart shoppers for the lack of quality available these days.  They only care about the cheapest possible price with no regard for quality.  A few years ago we could still get decent hygrometers for $10.  Now, they've all gone out of business and all you can get are made in china copies for $5, but they're total shit.

If you do manage to find a decent one at a cigar shop, don't use the salt test.  It calibrates for the mid 70% range.  The damp towel test calibrates for 99% which is much closer to what you'll operate at.

lol i agree i've been shopping for all my supplies the past week, got everything i needed, except a hygrometer so i went to wally word to do some grocery shopping lastnight and the ONLY one i could find was only 3 bucks, i knew it was a joke from the beginning but i figured what the hell i'll try it, i can get a better humidity reading from listening to what my pet dog tells me it is.

I really got lucky with Envirolite digitals. All three of mine worked fine. Min/max thermometers with min/max hygro too.
I killed one through carelessness, gave one away, and one I treat like a precious lab insturment.

I think I either got them on eBay or at Lowe's. I was doing some heavy searching locally, but I don't remember if I found them here or not.
You'll need to check any hygrometer. I check at 99% with a damp towel, 75% w/ wet salt, and check local RH vs weather reports.
