    How Many Times a Week?

    Foodsaver on sale!

    I rarely post, but I read all forum messages. I have to jump in with my 2 cents on this product. I wasted my money on 2 of these Food Savers before deciding to bite the bullet and get a quality product. These Food Savers are great if you need to save a PB&J till tomorrow, but for quantity...
