You know, I've got them but almost never use them. Too much stuff to clean. I use a sharp knife, a large spoon, my hands (for kneading dough, after first washing them thoroughly), whatever works. I don't use a blender unless I have to puree something, which is rare.
What is it you are trying to mix? Different things are done in different ways.
I only use my blender for blue cheese dressing, but many people use a blender for smoothies or milk shakes. If you don't make blue cheese dressing and you never drink milk shakes, smoothies, or margaritas you maybe don't need a blender.
Never saw a need for either one of them. I have a couple whisks, and an egg beater. I do have my mother's old electric hand mixer but don't use it that much. Don't really need it. Main thing I used the whisk for was an occasional instant pudding snack. Found it so much easier, and less to clean up, to put it in a sealable container and shaking it up
You can “mix things” with a spoon. But you can’t puree a soup that way.
What exactly are you trying to do?
