Food has gotten more expensive it seems every week. I buy meat, hamburger, pork chops and roasts, chicken, ham etc. when it is on sale. Then it shrink wrapped in the FoodSaver bags and put in one or the other of my two freezers in the garage. I have never had any spoilage over the years I have been doing this. It has saved me a ton of money over the years. Oh, I also have a load of fresh ocean caught fish.
I highly recommend the FoodSaver and bags. It not only saves me money but also not having to go to the store as often.
