Cool. Do you know if that coupon will work on any item?

Question: How many glasses does this make and how long does it take to make the margaritas?

NOt sure.... There was another one MP7W249 I found that says it is good on everything. You can just add to your basket and apply the code before you actually buy. It will tell you if it is good or not.

NO idea. I bought it for tailgating for my wife.

Yeah... I wasnt really expecting much. It was cheap enough that I could use it in the car without worrying if it got broke.

I don't know how long it takes to make the drinks...but I have a friend that has this and it works great. I didn't see her make them, I only drank them It makes really good slushie drinks. I was impressed especially for THIS price. I was going to get one when they were on sale for 99.00 at JC Penneys at Christmas. So $59.00 sounds GREAT to me.

Thanks for the post! I bought one for a wedding shower that I am giving soon! Great price!

It can make a gallon of drinks, so depends on how big your glasses are :)

 

And it takes about 8 minutes to make a batch. Sometimes longer if your ice cubes are bigger. I buy a bag at the store of semi small cubes and we have margs in 7-8 minutes usually. If I get the bigger sized cubes, it takes about 10 minutes. It is noisy though.

I saw that, but I have not had any problems with mine! It is awesome! I have no complaints. Oh, except it sometimes leaks from the spout, so I leave a small cup under it to catch anything. Usually it's just a few drips of drink.

Thanks first lady. :)

as an FYI, I just got my order conf, and the coupon code, that it accepted, was not there. I was billed $59.99 plus $10.99 shipping

This would be great to make slushies for kiddo birthday parties.

[Fishboysmom]

Are they allowed to charge more on your credit card then you authorized?

I would dispute whatever the coupon amount was with your cc company.

No, they shouldn't......I could dispute it....But honestly, it will be easier to refuse the package and NOT do business with them again. I think they are counting on me NOT refusing the package. But I am. They could have credited my card for the amount of that coupon if they really wanted me for a customer. Eh.....live and learn.
