🔮 The forecast doesn’t look great for the weekend, and with the holiday season nearing, it feels like the perfect time to skip the long lines, stay inside and have everything shipped straight to your door.
🔮 The days are getting shorter, the thermostats are dropping and you might be ready to shut your windows for fall.

Narrative

Shoppers are turning away from more expensive kitchen appliances in favor of a smaller, lighter and perhaps most importantly, impressively “very powerful” personal blender. The Nutribullet Pro Personal Blender has racked up thousands of rave reviews on Amazon and is currently on sale for 38% off at just $84 ahead of October Prime Day, which officially kicks off on Oct. 6 and Oct. 7 (though there are plenty of deals already live). The upgraded model boasts 1,200 watts of power, double the original Nutribullet and is small enough to stow away on smaller countertops.
