There are no blind spots if you adjust the mirrors properly. It can be a little disconcerting on the test drive, simply because most people are not used to using the mirrors alone.

As others have said, turn the mirrors both outward as far as they go. You shouldn't see YOUR car in the side mirrors at all, or you won't see THEIR car, which is what's important. You don't need extra mirrors to see all around.

If you are trying to look over your shoulder, you're not doing it right. You're not going to see smaller cars and motorcycles 100% of the time, you have to use your mirrors. The windows back there are too small to be useful. You'll easily lose them on the right side, and on the left side...well, I don't know how the hell you think you're seeing back that way without sticking your head out the window.
