Anyone here use a foodsaver?

[angelbears]

Any tips? Does anyone know the cost breakdown on the bags compared to normal freezer bags. Know the cheapest place to buy bags?

Thanks!

I use one but rarely and your bets bet would be online

We have one that we use for packing venison during hunting season. We use gallon-size freezer bags for grinder-bound scraps and butcher paper for roasts, but those vacuum bags work great for the chops, steaks, loins, etc. We buy the off-brand bags at Shopko and haven't had a problem yet. You definitely don't need to buy the Food Saver-brand stuff to get the most out of it.
