I don't juice because I'm too lazy to wash my fruits and vegetables, here's my solution.

This. Is. Brilliant. I was just searching Reddit for something like this because I'm a full time student, full time employee, land lord, and volunteer, and time does not freaking exist. I keep buying ingredients but they go bad because I don't always have time to juice. I'll blend but then my juice ingredients still go bad.
However, I did find to save time I take the bags that I put veggies in at the store and put that over the "pulp catcher" on my juicer. Then I don't have to clean it out. I simply remove the bag. You're idea takes the cake.
Do any other juicers have tips for making this faster/easier for others?

Let me just say that keeping a schedule like that is absolutely stupid. There's no reason you can't relax any our even all of those, some entirely, and when you don't you aren't fully there for any of them and will eventually get sick as well. I was engaged to a girl who always felt driven to run at 100% at all times, and she came down with meningitis...

Each bag contains enough for one juice, I made 9 bags. Everything in the bag is cut and washed, except the apples (so they don't brown, and it's simple to cut them when I'm ready.) I'm hoping to embark on a 60 juice fast, making it as easy as possible for me to make juice is key. I failed in the past because I'm really anal about washing the ingredients, and it would take like 40 minutes to get one juice ready. My hunger would get the best of me, and I'd give up.
Let's do this!!!
-Each bag contains about 4 celery stalks, 1 1/2 cucumber, 1/4 lemon, slice of ginger, one bunch of kale or collard greens (about 5 or 6 stalks), and one whole apple. It took about an hour and fifteen minutes to do.

How many days will the nine juices last?

I'm estimating only three or so, but when I run out I'll make a huge batch again. It's more convenient for me to make a couple or few days' worth at one time, than go through all the steps of washing and cutting for one juice.

For the apple, you could juice the lime when you put the bags together and use the juice to coat the cut apple pieces. This should prevent the oxidation.

Good job! I bought a masticating juicer so I can keep juice in the fridge for a day or two instead of having to make it fresh everytime. Helps a LOT for lazy people like us, might want to look into getting one!
Masticating juicers are awesome! I have an omega, and it makes delicious juices. I might consider making and keeping juice in the fridge, I guess I'm hung up on drinking it as fresh as possible. I do keep emergency juice that I've made, in case I really start to crack.
I try to make it fresh but Friday and Saturday I have to wake up at 6am to teach and I do not want to cook or make juice at 6 am so instead I can just pour a big cup of juice and feel good about it all!
