Shoppers are rushing to buy Ninja's 'absolutely brilliant' ice cream maker
While the heatwave has given us dry lawns and restless nights, it also brings with it the perfect excuse to eat more ice cream. There's no need to head to the supermarket for your frozen dessert fix, because the Ninja Creami can do it all.
The Ninja Creami gets rave reviews from shoppers, which is little surprise considering how versatile it is. It will make ice cream, gelato or sorbet, as well as milkshakes, and there's full control when it comes to the ingredients used. Want protein ice cream? That's what you'll get.
Ninja currently has an exclusive offer on the Creami too, not only discounting this ice cream maker, but bundling in four extra tubs. Saving over £50, the Ninja Creami is £169 from Ninja direct.
The regular Ninja Creami comes with three tubs, so there's the opportunity to double your ice cream output, meaning more flavours ready for your next party.
While this is the deal I'd recommend, you can get the Ninja Creami slightly cheaper at £158.16 on Amazon - it's £10 cheaper than Ninja's deal, but you don't get the extra tubs for all that ice cream you make.
The Creami is loaded with features, offering a wide range of frozen desserts and as is often the way with Ninja, it's seemingly gone viral, make it eally easy to find recipes online.
When using the Ninja Creami, users first have to make and freeze the ice cream base, before using the Creami to turn it into the dessert of your choice once it's frozen.
What the Ninja Creami doesn't do is the freezing, which is where some rivals have a slightly different solution. The Cuisinart ice cream maker - £54.99 on Amazon - uses a frozen bowl, so users can make their ice cream in about 25 minutes instead.
A pricier alternative, to the Cuisinar option, is the Lakeland Compressor Ice Cream Maker, which currently has a small £20 off. This can make 1.5litres of ice cream 'in under an hour' as stated on the brand's site.
Customers praise how easy it is to use and how easy it is to clean, with one saying "It's super easy to use, in fact the hardest part of making super creamy ice cream is having the patience to wait for it to freeze for 24 hours."
Others love the variety that comes with making your own ice cream at home: "custard ice cream, strawberry and yoghurt, peach sorbet … pineapple sorbet and sweet potato ice cream."
Some have called out that it's a little noisy "it is very, very loud so if this could be fixed, it would be amazing".

Amazon accused of driving up prices for Britons in class action lawsuit
Amazon has been accused of driving up prices for Britons in a new lawsuit seeking to secure refunds for 45 million UK shoppers. The tech giant is facing a new class action lawsuit over allegations that it stopped sellers from lowering their prices on their own websites below the price at which they were selling on Amazon. The Association of Consumer Support Organisations (ACSO), a non-profit, claims this policy stops 'healthy price competition' between websites, meaning that UK shoppers are forced to pay higher fees when buying online. The consumer rights group has applied to launch a new collection action against Amazon on behalf of the more than 45 million customers who have bought products from the online retail giant over the past six years. The action is being brought on an 'opt-out' basis, meaning anyone who has bought items on Amazon since August 2019 would be included in the claim and able to get a refund if the action is successful. Matthew Maxwell-Scott, the founder and executive director of ACSO, said: 'Millions of people in the UK make purchases on Amazon every day. Despite the company's assurances that it is above all else 'customer-obsessed', we consider there are strong grounds to argue that UK consumers have paid higher prices because of Amazon's pricing policies.' He said the action would 'ensure that consumers can obtain redress for the considerable losses they have suffered'. Amazon's legal woes It is the latest in a series of legal challenges to Amazon's pricing policies. US regulators have already taken aim at the tech giant, arguing it wields 'monopoly power to inflate prices'. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) sued Amazon in 2023 over claims the company had stopped rivals and sellers from lowering prices. Parts of the claim were later dismissed by a judge, although the case is still moving forward to trial. Amazon argued at the time that the FTC has a 'fundamental misunderstanding of retail'. The move to launch the action in the UK comes amid a rise in class-action cases in Britain after the Consumer Rights Act 2015 opened the door to more US-style collective disputes. In June, researchers from the European Centre for International Political Economy, a think tank, warned that these disputes could cost the UK economy £18bn as the threat of mass litigation deters investment. Amazon has previously faced scrutiny from UK regulators over its pricing policies and in 2013 pledged to make changes to address concerns that they were leading to higher prices. Earlier this year, Doug Gurr, the former UK boss of Amazon, was hired to lead Britain's competition watchdog.

Maryland's first-in-the-nation tax on digital ads violated Big Tech's free speech, judges say
Maryland's first-in-the-nation tax on digital advertising violated the Constitution, a federal appeals court says, because blocking Big Tech from telling customers about the tax violates the companies' right to free speech. Supporters say Maryland needed to overhaul its tax methods in response to significant changes in how businesses advertise. The tax focuses on large companies that make money advertising on the internet such as Meta, Google and Amazon, who say they're being unfairly targeted. The ongoing legal fight is being watched by other states that are considering taxes for online ads. Maryland estimated the tax could raise about $250 million a year to help pay for a sweeping K-12 education measure. Maryland's law says the companies must not only pay the tax, but avoid telling customers how it affects pricing, with no line items, surcharges or fees, said the appeals court Friday in siding with trade associations fighting the tax. Judge Julius Richardson cited the Colonial-era Stamp Act, which helped spark the Revolutionary War, and wrote that 'criticizing the government — for taxes or anything else — is important discourse in a democratic society.' The plaintiffs contended Maryland lawmakers were trying to insulate themselves from criticism and political accountability by forbidding companies from explaining the tax to their customers. 'A state cannot duck criticism by silencing those affected by its tax,' the judge wrote. The unanimous ruling by the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reverses a decision by U.S. District Judge Lydia Kay Griggsby and sends the case back to her with instructions to consider an appropriate remedy in light of the panel's decision. Trade groups praised the decision. 'Maryland tried to prevent criticism of its tax scheme, and the Fourth Circuit recognized that tactic for what it was: censorship,' said Paul Taske, co-director of the NetChoice Litigation Center, said in a statement. The law imposes a tax based on global annual gross revenues for companies that make more than $100 million globally. Under the law, the tax rate is 2.5% for businesses making more than $100 million in global gross annual revenue; 5% for companies making $1 billion or more; 7.5% for companies making $5 billion or more and 10% for companies making $15 billion or more. The law has been challenged in multiple legal venues, including Maryland Tax Court, where the case is ongoing. The Maryland General Assembly, which is controlled by Democrats, overrode a veto of the legislation in 2021 by then-Gov. Larry Hogan, a Republican.

Amazon beats Dyson with £100 off cordless vacuum that 'makes cleaning so much easier'
Amazon beats Dyson with £100 off cordless vacuum that 'makes cleaning so much easier' Amazon has undercut Dyson on its 'most powerful' V8 vacuum cleaner, offering Brits more than 31% off. The Dyson V8 Advanced is 31% off at Amazon. Amazon has beaten Dyson as it slashes more than £100 off a cordless vacuum that's said to make cleaning 'so much easier'. In a new limited time deal, shoppers can pick up the Dyson V8 Advanced Cordless Vacuum Cleaner for £229. This represents a 31% price cut from the usual £329.99 and is slightly cheaper than Dyson's own £229.99 price tag. This model is touted as Dyson's 'most powerful' V8 ever, delivering 10% more suction compared to previous Dyson V8s. It boasts a digital motor that spins at up to 110,000rpm to generate 130 Air Watts of suction, with two settings including Eco mode or the more powerful MAX mode for more intense cleaning. It's powered by an advanced six-cell battery that provides up to 40 minutes of runtime, while a de-tangling motorbar cleaner head prevents tangles and sucks up long hair and pet hair from all floor types. This also ensures deep cleaning of carpets and removes dust and debris from hard floors. The V8 Advanced is said to be lightweight for quick and versatile cordless cleaning and can also be transformed to a handheld vacuum for getting into hard-to-reach places around the house and car. As well as the vacuum cleaner, buyers will also receive a combination tool for quick switching between cleaning and dusting tasks, plus a crevice tool for narrower spaces. Other affordable devices include the Shark PowerPro Cordless Stick Vacuum (£179.99), which is hailed for its 'exceptional cleaning performance' and 'powerful hair pickup'.

There's also the Hoover HF1+ Home Cordless Vacuum Cleaner (£99), which comes with a specially designed tool for tackling pet hair.

One happy customer said: 'I'm really impressed with the Dyson V8. It's super lightweight, powerful and makes cleaning so much easier than I expected. I love that it converts to a handheld – perfect for the sofa and the car. The battery lasts around 35–40 minutes and it does a great job picking up even pet hair. It was worth every penny.' Another said: 'This is brilliant. The suction tremendous, and best of all the pet hair remover. I have three dogs and with all my other vacuums I had to clean the brush head constantly, but not with this one. I have used this several times now and not once had to clean the brush head.' 'It's lightweight, powerful and makes cleaning so much easier'. Article continues below Others have criticised the Dyson V8's 40-minute battery life, as this buyer said: 'The battery does not last long enough and the replacement is too expensive to keep purchasing.' While another five-star review said: 'Lightweight and easy to use, excellent cleaner. Purchased this for my elderly mother and she finds it easy to use. Powerful without being too heavy to push around. The battery lasts long enough to do the full house.'
