Ordered a medium priced juicer from ebay ($39.95). Shocked at the arrival time. 2-3 days. I have been having a wonderful time. It's a Black & Decker Fruit and Vegetable Extractor, something like that. Threw EVERYTHING in, carrots, celery, parsley, onion, salad greens, spinach, then 1/4 apple, and about 4 strawberries. Juice was terrific...although ugly as ****. Funny little side note, had the dang thing turned the wrong direction on my first run, all the juice ran onto the back side of the counter, OMY.

    I've had a juicer for 3 months and haven't used it yet. I think I will tomorrow though! I have fresh fruit, frozen fruit and a lot of veggies. Yummy!

    I'm so thrilled...and, if I see that I haven't used something, I can recycle it in the juicer. I will never waste anything again. A piece of celery, a piece of mango, cucumber, whatever. I won't have to hold onto things "just in case". I'll juice them, then buy them when I want them. No fuss, no muss! And, never any waste!
  • Every morning I juice 1 cucumber, 1 small pear, kale, romaine or spinach, 3 celery sticks, broccoli, and ginger. Love it!

    That sounds great...don't care so much for pears, but an apple will be the same. And I do have all the other fruits and veggies, thanks.

    eBay. It was new in package and free shipping. Black & Decker $39.95. I'm very satisfied with it. Never had one before, so nothing to compare to, but it's good for me. :happy:
