Holy crap. I recently got a Foodsaver GameSaver deluxe vacuum system. This thing is absolutely the $hit. If you like to buy in bulk to save dough, as I'd imagine most of the home kitchen warriors and smaller restaurant owners that don't have constant shipments of new product would, it's fantastic. Removing the air helps everything freeze better with no air to spoil, it thaws quicker when needed, and holds for more than triple the amount of time. Also, the hose attachment is cool. I got deli containers and my lunch meat (hopefully my own deli meat if i ever pull the trigger on this slicer) stays for double the time. The hose attach also connects to a specially fitted mason jar lid (not a substitute for real canning), and a wine stopper.
I paid about 160 bucks for the deluxe gamesaver and 2 rolls and extra bags. I will save that amount of money in wasted or forgotten about food in two months.
