With the FoodSaver, that freezer would pay for itself too. You can buy all kinds of things in bulk. Just don't do what I did at first, keep buying in bulk and not use what's already there
Don't wait too long to tell someone you love them.

If you go to
www.foodsaver.com, they have three that are on sale for less than $100. The best one is the Pro III, but it runs $300. The three on sale look like pretty good ones, not top of the line, but not bottom either.
I just reviewed the sales info again [it's on the web sales below the main picture] and they all seem like a pretty good deal so I couldn't recommend one over the other, AND, the price is right!

I don't know Billy about those lower priced ones. I told Tracie to skip them and keep saving for the Pro model. The way folks around here cook, I don't think they'd be happy with those. (my opinion only...
)

If'n it was me Jean, I would save for the Pro III too, but I don't know what people want/need. You can't go wrong with the Pro III and might not like the lesser quality ones. My oldest sis bought one of the cheap models and hates it, but it wasn't near the quality of those on sale.

I have the Pro 11, and love it. I used to have one of the cheap ones. Then Billy sent me a package of something ( can't remember what) in the mail. When we opened it, we took one look at how the bags were vacuumed and sealed, and bought a new one.
