....Dear Robin. I will be off line (moving to Fl) at the end of this week; but as I have said before I will that I have walked in your shoes!!..I will continue to keep you and Mom in my prayers and will check in when near a computer..

I agree with Katy..doesn't seem to be a time saver.
btw..I found my second pressure canner at an auction for $20..someone posted on another thread recently about finding one at the Thrift store..I know this doesn't answer your question..sorry..
Natalie, before I started using the vacuum sealer, we would double bag ours in ziplocks and press as much air out as possible..I have a friend that pats hers dry, wraps in cling wrap and then bags them..?..haven't tried that..now we vacuum seal them.
