Running armbands

Any purchase tips for armbands for carrying phone/iPod/keys - specifically do the cheap ones (eg Wilkinson) do the job? Anything to look out for?

I bought a Karrimor arm band from Sports Direct and find its perfect for my ipod but my keys are attached to my gloves and my phone goes down my bra There are elastic bits on the armband which could probably be for the phone but I haven't tried them yet. I think it was £4.99. Hope you find something that suits.

I tried an armband, but couldn't get on with it. I now use a waist belt which I bought from Sweatshop for £9, holds phone, keys etc - every thing is hidden out of sight but easily accessible when you need it

I use a Karrimor arm band from Sports Direct which is very cheap and comfortable, but there is a problem with it - the pocket for the phone doesn't take my Nokia so I have to take my very old mobile with me. My MP3 player, however, is also very old and about 6cm x 2cm x 1cm so fits very nicely in one of the elastic thingummyjigs on the side. My key still goes down my bra

I also have a waist belt which is actually a money belt from Boots, on offer for the grand price of £1.50. I use this if I want to take my camera with me, and tissues, and my car key, and the kitchen sink.
