Made a green smoothie for breakfast today, a little hesitant about drinking it with all the pulp.  It was fantastic!  Also made the carrot curry soup recipe put out by Vitamix and loved that too.  I will be using this puppy daily and will not hesitate to replace it once broken with a pricey and shiney new one. :)

I like you am cheap, have to be being a teacher. Costco had the Nutribullet on sale for under $90. I have used to make my smoothies. I put too much ice in my protein drink this morning and it was like ice cream or a frosty. I love it. I too have the Ninja (a wedding gift). Want a vitamin, but the bullet will do for a while.

Awesome. I'm so glad you were able to get your hands on a Vitamix. They are amazing machines. I bought a refurbished model a few years ago for $100+ cheaper than new and have never regretted it. It still came with a 5 year warranty, and I honestly couldn't tell the difference. You can also save a few bucks using a promo code from someone like http://rawblends.com/vitamix-blender to get free shipping ($25+) and sometimes other special deals.
