I purchased a Magic Bullet at Wal-Mart. I love my bullet. It does a good job and it is easy to clean.

I have a Hamilton Beach Single Serve blender that I use for mixing my shakes with. It crushes ice better than any regular sized blender I own. I purchased it from Walmart for about $14. Yep, it's inexpensive but it works great!

J.C Penney has a Cooks Power Blender on sale in their ad today. It kind of reminds me of a Magic Bullet. Does anyone know whether this one is worth the cost even at half price? I have a very worn Krups that is in bad need of replacement.

Thank you all for the suggestions! I was worried about the Bullet- I've read bad reviews... I'll go shop around!

Consumer Reports doesn't think much of the Magic Bullet yet people seem to love theirs. What's up with that?

For anyone interested in getting a Magic Bullet, Walgreens has it on sale this week $10 off. I got a Cooks at Penneys which is similar and they have it in today's add for $29.99, which is half price. Nice to have options. Haven't had the Cooks long enough to know if I would recommend it, however.

I was at Macy's yesterday and went to check out that Magic Bullet and another similar one...

The cups seem so flimsy to me. And the funniest part was, the similar one they had on display had all broken cups!!! I thought to myself- "there's a marketing genius for ya"! LMAO

I still cannot decide... and I guess if it breaks or if you need more cups, maybe you can just call the company! :wink2:

From the posts on the boards I've been reading the past 2 years.......and from the customer reviews on Amazon.com - while MB works, it works great. But many of them don't last long, and when they quit, the customer service is non-existant. You might look over the reviews yourself and see wht you think.

I have had great luck, and so have many others I know, with the Hamilton Beach Personal Blender - $15 at WM or Target or Kitchen Connection. It crushes ice nicely and is just the right size for one shake.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
