Is it cheaper to buy a juice cleanse or make your own?

After the initial investment, it's significantly less expensive to make juice at home. Plus, you'll save even more money by using your juicer to make your own plant milk, sorbet, and smoothies.

Buying Juice: Price Breakdown

If you bought one 12 oz. cold pressed juice 3 times a week, you would pay about $859.56 a year. That’s assuming the cost of a 12 oz. serving is $5.51, an average we calculated from mail-order juice cleanses, local juice bars, and bottled varieties. Remember, we’re talking about cold pressed juice, not the stuff from the carton.

Making Juice: Price Breakdown

According to our yield tests, it would take 0.43 lbs. of apples, 0.57 lbs. of carrots, and 0.47 lbs. of spinach to make 12 oz. of juice.

The average price of that quantity of those ingredients is $1.78.

If you made 12 oz. of cold pressed juice at home 3 times a week, it would only cost you about $277.68 a year in ingredients. That, plus the initial investment of our EVO820, comes out to $876.68 the first year. While it costs about $17 more the first year, investing in a juicer really pays off as time goes by. Just take a look: Year 1 Store-bought Homemade Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer EVO820 X $599 Average price of 12 oz. juice $5.51 $1.78 * Cost to consume 3 times a week $16.53 $5.34 * Cost of juicing a year $859.56 $277.68 * Total amount spend on year 1 $859.56 $876.68 Year 2 Store-bought Homemade Kuvings Whole Slow Juicer EVO820 X X Average price of 12 oz. juice $5.51 $1.78 * Cost to consume 3 times a week $16.53 $5.34 * Cost of juicing a year $859.56 $277.68 * Total amount spend on year 2 $859.56 $277.68 *Cost of ingredients calculated using the 2022 USDA national average cost of apples, carrots, and spinach. After the initial investment, it’s significantly less expensive to make juice at home. Plus, you’ll save even more money by using your juicer to make your own plant milk, sorbet, and smoothies.

More Reasons to Juice at Home

Homemade juice is free from preservatives and additives, both of which can alter the taste and nutrient value of your juice. Juice from the store is pasteurized, a process that heats juice to destroy bacteria. It's great for shelf stability, but the heat from pasteurization also kills beneficial enzymes and micronutrients. Homemade juice is customizable. You know exactly what ingredients are going into your body, and you can cater to your specific nutritional needs. Bottled or frozen juice simply can't compare with the taste of fresh squeezed juice.

Buying less juice = using fewer plastic bottles.

How many PS5 can you own?

highsnobiety.com - Sony Is Putting a Limit on How Many PS5's You Can Buy - Highsnobiety

As Sony's PlayStation 5 launch approaches, new details have emerged about its upcoming availability. According to a Reddit page that outlines data-mined information from a new PlayStation website — PlayStation Direct — customers will be limited to purchasing one PlayStation 5 per person. The webpage code suggests that customers will only be able to “purchase one version of the PS5™ Console: Disc or Digital” in their order. If true, this could be Sony's way of managing the supply and demand for the highly-anticipated launch (which is projected to comprise 10 million units). It won't be straight forward to sidestep this policy. Customers cannot simply pre-order from multiple retailers as pre-orders will be done directly via PlayStation alongside traditional third-party retailers. The backend code also reportedly reveals images for a “PS5 Compatible” badge, which Reddit users speculate could be used for cross-gen titles from the PlayStation 4. This corresponds with Sony's announcement that “almost all” of its most popular titles will be backward compatible starting day one of the PlayStation 5’s release date. Head over to Reddit to read the full summary of the PlayStation Direct source code leaks.
