The FoodSaver Space Saving Vacuum Sealer - VS1120 was a game changer.  After a few occasions where I had to throw meat away due to freezer burn because the store packaging was inadequate, I decided to try out a vacuum sealer.  It's amazing. It's not only small and compact so that it fits nicely in my cupboard (not sitting on a counter taking up space), but it's light weight as well. It's pretty self explanatory, so it is super easy to use even if you have never used one before. I had a packet of chicken vacuumed and sealed within 60 seconds! I love that I can pre-portion my meat, vacuum seal it and store it in the freezer for when I need it. I will absolutely be using this for all my bulk meat purchases in the future and I'm certain it will come in handy for other items as well.
