It's very interesting and could well be an inexpensive alternative for vacuum sealing.

Works like a dream too.<br /><br />http://pump-n-seal.com/info.htm<br /><br />WinstonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429758274949022857.post-77498710347389742142011-11-29T11:06:58.226-06:002011-11-29T11:06:58.226-06:00Pretty good information, my friend!

HP, I like th...Nancy, thanks. I love my FoodSaver!<br /><br />HP, I like the idea about storing your personal papers. I really hadn't thought of that before! LOL We are still learning from each other after all this time! LOL<br /><br />Skippy, just keep looking for that dehydrator. One day when you least expect it, you'll find one. Have you asked your friends to keep an eye out for one as well? I lucked out last year and found my second dryer at a flea market for all of $2.00 after looking for one for almost two years. It seems they are getting more scarce these days. (or maybe that's just around here)<br /><br />North, those are some great ideas! Thanks for sharing them. Our truck is kind of like our BOB as well, although after reading your response I may have to rethink how I have things done in there! <br /><br />Rose, thank you for stopping by my friend!<br /><br />Kymber.... Bwahhhahaaahhaaa uhm... NO It's still around here somewhere but I'm not going to go looking for it!

My truck is a lot like my own big BOB. <br /><br />I seal some small blankets in bags. They stay clean and organized. In my truck sealed in bags are also a lot of the things you might find in a winter survival kit such as TP, paper towels, spare gloves, energy bars... all of these are vacuum sealed. <br /><br />My truck stays reasonably clean, but by using the vacbags I can be sure that the blankets are free of dust and that the energy bars are free of bugs. The TP and paper towels won't be dirty or cemented together from accidentally getting wet.<br /><br />Spare gloves stay as a pair. Blankets get compressed a little.<br /><br />If you have emergency tools that you carry, but seldom use, vacuum them and drop a silica bag in with them when you do. They will be forever rust-free.Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12778737553770514684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429758274949022857.post-43629298883488020422011-11-28T15:08:47.076-06:002011-11-28T15:08:47.076-06:00I inherited one from my MIL, but so far haven'...I inherited one from my MIL, but so far haven't sealed anything because we use up our stuff so fast and I have yet to find savings on bulk meats, fruits or veggies here. I think I have to look harder.<br /> <br />What I really want is a dehydrator. I keep looking at yard sales, but no luck so far.SkippyMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09479661523059481730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429758274949022857.post-23965252433779981462011-11-28T13:14:45.061-06:002011-11-28T13:14:45.061-06:00I remember (way back) when you taught me the trick...I remember (way back) when you taught me the trick of using their canister for sealing jars! I have used that trick so many times it isn't funny. I hadn'tthought of sealing cheese though...so again, THANKS!<br />We use it for putting out personal papers in for our BOB's. They won't wrinkle, yellow or get wet no matter what happens!Herbalpaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13122973060172005945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429758274949022857.post-20222079311299542672011-11-28T11:34:08.441-06:002011-11-28T11:34:08.441-06:00Wow!
