I like to freeze a lot of vegetables during the summer for use in the winter, and just using ziplock bags, I have a lot of freezer burn. I'm glad you 'got away' for a few. I enjoy reading your blog! Thanks for all your input and reminders, also your recipes are great!

I have twist ties on everything and if it's to big for a twist tie I use rubberbands. I’d use it to reseal my bags too.

We have an older foodsaver that we use all the time to store the meat from my husband's hunting trips as well as meat and other items bought in bulk. Like you, we like to keep our freezers full and really stock up when there is a good sale. Our current Foodsaver does not seal anything but the foodsaver bags, so I would love to have the newer version that seals all types of bags.

A Foodsaver would make it so much easier to put up 80 pounds of ground beef at a time. We also hunt, so come fall we put venison in the freezer. I really enjoy reading your blog, thanks! Terri S.

I can imagine buying in bulk and freezing up enough for a month or more. That sounds great to me. Love your blog Judy.
