Oh mannnn I am so excited that I scored a Breville Die Cast hemisphere blender off craigslist for $175 bucks (they retail between $300 and $400). It was quite obviously barely used (with some dust on it). Took it home and made a banana, blueberry, raspberry, spinach, whey protein smoothie. Heavenly! So glad I have a working blender again, I can do one liquid meal per day now.
