Bulk up on early Prime Day Deals while making meal prep more efficient with a blender to whip up all sorts of food and drinks from your kitchen. Countertop blenders make for versatile kitchen appliances to mix, puree, and emulsify ingredients. From making a healthy batch of hummus to something as tasty as milkshakes or margaritas, the best blenders open you up to a whole new list of possibilities. The Ninja Smart Screen Blender (CT650) is currently selling at a discounted price of $82 on Amazon, a sweet 37% price cut from its list price of $130.

The countertop blender from Ninja is designed with a sleek matte black frame and base with a responsive touchscreen to take blending a notch higher. The blender is equipped with four chef-designed Auto-iQ programs of pulsing and pausing. These pre-set patterns make it easier for you to create something as simple as a smoothie to transforming frozen ingredients into decadent ice cream.

With one tap of a finger, the smart touchscreen lets you switch between automatic programs to manual so that you can freely craft and customize recipes to your exact specifications. There are a total of three manual controls for low, high, as well as for pulse settings. Unlike blenders with mylar buttons, the touchscreen attached to this blender makes it more intuitive, durable, and a lot easier to clean. It is important to note that you should refrain from using abrasive cloths or brushes to clean as it may scratch or dull the surface of either the motor base or the control panel.

The 1,000-watt base of the CT650 blender comes with Ninja’s Total Crushing Pitcher that can blast through almost any tough ingredient such as ice or whole fruits within seconds. There may be fancier blenders available in this market but the Ninja Smart Screen Blender (CT650) has enough power to deliver 64 ounces of finely blended drinks, sauces, and dips for a quick pick-me-up in the morning or to cater a spur-of-the-moment get-together.

Blenders are a great addition to any kitchen as it simplifies various processes and brings you closer to enjoying delicious concoctions with mere presses of a button. The Ninja Smart Screen Blender (CT650) is yours for $82 — that’s a $48 in savings from Amazon. After all, blenders are meant to break down ingredients, not wallets.

Amazon Prime Video free trial: Stream for a month for free
The Amazon Prime Video app icon on Roku.

If you've ever shopped on Amazon -- and these days, who hasn't? -- then you've likely heard about the option for an Amazon Prime membership. This subscription is mostly touted as a way to save on shipping costs when purchasing from Amazon, but it also comes bundled with some other handy features including access to Amazon's streaming service, Amazon Prime Video. You'll find a range of movies and shows to watch, but if you're not sure whether you need yet another streaming service, there is an option for a free trial to see if you like the service before paying for it.
Is there an Amazon Prime Video free trial?
There is indeed an Amazon Prime Video free trial, but it's tied into the Prime free trial, which lasts for a month and may or may not be available to you. To see if you're eligible, you'll need to and check. The general rule is that the Prime free trial (and by extension, an Amazon Prime Video free trial) is available to Amazon accounts that have either never signed up for a Prime trial or have not had Prime -- either a trial or paid membership -- any time in the last 12 months.

The Prime free trial is usually for 30 days, similar to the Hulu free trial. If you're not eligible for the Amazon Prime Video free trial, though, then be patient: Sometimes, Amazon will sometimes offer free trials to its loyal customers, so if you have an Amazon account (but not a Prime membership) and shop on the site regularly, you might find a Prime trial offer sitting in your inbox one day. Often, though, these are shorter seven- or 14-day trials rather than the 30-day trial. Nonetheless, it's obvious that Amazon is a bit more generous with these trial periods than other services -- there's no Disney+ free trial or Netflix free trial, for example, but it's thankfully much easier to get an Amazon Prime Video free trial.
