How to Save Money on Left-Overs With A Vacuum Food Sealer
Vacuum Food Sealers can save food by keeping it fresh up to 5 times longer! In fact, you can save thousands of dollars a year on wasted food alone. For example: If you purchased $4845.00 at the super market or $2760.00 at a warehouse club a year, you could realize a potential savings of 43% or about $2080.00 a year* (or $175.00 a month) just by vacuum sealing your food left-overs. Not to mention, think of the gas savings by not traveling so much to the grocery store all the time.
Simply put, AIR is the enemy of food, as well as collectibles and documents. The oxidation caused by air robs food of its fresh taste and causes collectibles to tarnish and documents to fall apart with age. By using a Vacuum Food Sealer you can realize dollar savings or memory savings.
Here’s another example: OK, so you just got back from the grocery store. Sales were huge so you bought a lot of food to try to save money. But wait, there’s no more room in the refrigerator to put it. Well if you had a Vacuum Food Sealer you could then prepare a bunch of meals for the week then seal them up in individual packages and put them in the freezer.
Just think, when you get home from a busy day at the office and don’t feel like cooking, go to the freezer and pull out a ready made meal, cut open the bag, put in on a plate, pop it into the microwave and poof you’re ready to eat.
Here’s something that I do. I prepare a meatloaf with about a pound of hamburg, bread crumbs, a couple of eggs, ketchup and onions. At the same time I make enough mashed potatoes and green beans for about 3 to 4 meals. When everything is all done, I prepare a meal on as many paper plates that I have food for, slip each meal into a Food Sealer Bag and seal it up then just put into the freezer. You may want to cover the meal with another paper plate just so you don’t squash everything together.
You can do this very same thing with just about any meal combination you can think of. The benefits? Well, after a long hard day at the office, I don’t have to spend a long time preparing something to eat. I just go to the freezer, find what I want to eat, slit a hole in the bag and pop it into the microwave and poof dinner is ready in minutes.
