I don’t remember if I have share this before (although I may have) but I shop for groceries monthly. With a large family to feed it is easier to do it that way. That also means I use a lot of freezer bags and aluminium foil. Sometimes though those can get improperly sealed or tear open. I always wanted a vacuum sealer but it seemed to be more money in the long run. Recently I had the chance to try out the Smarssen Vacuum Sealer at a fraction of the cost.
I will admit that I was nervous about this as I had only ever used one before and it was one of those handheld ones. You know the little one that you could seal your chip bag with? My Granny gave to me and I used that sucker until it died. We are talking about back in my college days as well. Chips were my life back then. I knew that if this sealer worked as well as I hoped then I could buy more meats and frozen veggies. I like to make single serve bags of my veggies since I buy the largest possible bag.

I live in a small Georgia town that you most likely have never heard of and I LOVE it! My house is more than full as I am a single mother of four & caregiver to my aging mother and uncle. Lover of all things Outlander. Goes to the beat of her own drum woman.

I have been wanting a sealer for some time. I havent heard of this brand, and it was a good post to read. I am a gardener and freeze rather than can, and this would be a nice thing and keep my tomatoes better! It looks like a good machine.
