I was losing money by throwing out frozen meat and vegetables with freezer burn. I purchased a FoodSaver in January and haven't had that problem again.

The smaller size bags are more convenient for single portions. I use these for small steaks, hamburger, chicken and veggies. I picked blueberries this summer and sealed enough in each bag for a batch of muffins.

The FoodSaver has allowed me to buy in bulk and save money. It's one of the best investments I ever made.
