P.O.
I just bought one, so I can't yet comment on it's usefulness, but had I known that JCPenney had a similar item for half the price, I would have gone there!
I did, however, get mine for $48 at Linen's & Things by using one of their 20% off coupons... I get them all the time. If you don't have one and need one, I have some more for LNT and tons for Bed, Bath & Beyond (I think BB&B has the Magic Bullet, too).
Shoot me a note and I'll mail you one, if you need it. But, I would probably go for the $30 one at JCPenney!
