Magic Bullet blender/mixer

Magic Bullet

Date :Nov-2014

Looking for a mixer/ blender works like Indian mixer???  

Magic bullet is an perfect product. there are some other products from magic bullet like Nutri bullet. Nutri bullet is something more powerful then magic bullet. 
But if you are using for a single family then magic bullet is sufficient. 

Magic bullet grind dry food in fine powder. 
It purees any food or fruit.  

It is available in some variations.  
1) 12 piece set (includes only 1 blade) 
2) 17 piece set (Includes 2 blades) 
3) 26 piece set (includes 3 blades)

Instead of buying some smoothie blender for cheap... magic bullet is an excellent option like an Indian mixer.

You can have look at walmart. It is available in $49-50. 
I bought it at costco just for $ 39 of 26 piece set. But I had mine in Thanks giving Deal.

The best thing with magic bullet is that it comes with several different mixing containers instead of just one big container. 

Replacement parts can be purchased very reasonably. 

Easy to use, easy to clean



how much it Costs to Have a Baby in USA

Based on my personal experience I'm sharing how much it cost to me so that you will get some idea to plan you budget.

Texas, Year-2014

Required around 10-12 visit

Dr. Fee for delivery
Delivery type normal :$2800.00
Delivery type C-Section :$3800.00


Hospital cost for 2 days : $9200.00 (in case of normal delivery and 2 day of stay at hospital, for mom & baby both)

Epidural Anesthesia : $3500.00


According my plan Cigna PPO benefits were as below
Prenatal care : $25 Copay(for all visit 100% after co-pay)
Including 3rd and 5th month sonogram
Deductible: $2000
Co-Pay & coinsurance for Hospital stay : $650 copay and then 20% of remaining amount
Cigna Discount : 1700

=Copay+deductible+hospital co pay+ 20 % total bill -any Insurance discounts
=25+2000+650+20%(2800+9200+3500-650-2000-1700)
=2675 + 20%(15500-2675-1700)
=2675+ 20%(11125)
=2675+ 2225
=$4900.00

Additional to this there may some cost for LAB test based on Insurance Plan
In my case it was $30.00 co-pay


Tip: When you make hospital bill you can negotiate bill with discounted rate. you may expect discount from 5%-20% vary based on mode of payment and hospital to hospital.

You can also meet Hospital, Prenatal account department to get quote and approximate cost. They can help & guide you based on your insurance plan.

You need to know your Insurance plan coverage for benefits.
