    I would love this gadget. I am someone who loves food and cooking, but I get really anxious when there is food in my fridge I can’t eat. I would love this machine so I could save my leftovers and not worry about if they will go bad in the freezer or not. It would allow me to try out more recipes in the kitchen and bring out my inner Julia :)

    This would be a great thing for me because I generally buy meats, especially, in bulk. With my hubby being in the military, he is GONE a lot so when I make things, I generally have a lot of left overs.

    Honestly, I would give this to my mom if I won it! Since it’s only her and my dad who both work long hours, they often don’t finish food before it goes bad! I think they could definitely benefit from this!

    I really need it for produce! There are only two of us in the apartment so this would be perfect! We usually don’t like buying too much produce at a time since it spoils so quickly!

    I hate to waste food!!! It’s just me and my husband and it’s hard to use things up in the fridge before it goes bad. This would be a real money saver. Have looked at getting one before. Would love one for Christmas though!

    I would use it for produce. I buy fresh produce each week and need to store it. I also buy meat and need to store that as well.

    I would love this! I have to walk to the grocery store (no car) which is normally fine but I can only buy enough produce as I will eat in 3 or 4 days, which means a lot of my time is spent walking to the grocery store. I’m an engineering student, so it’s hard to find! It would be great to keep the produce fresh longer so I could buy more at a time.

    My fiancee just asked for one of these for Christmas! (Too bad I already bought him something else). We both work full time and are students so it’s hard to find time during the week to cook meals. We tend to cook a lot on the weekends. This would be great to save our extras to eat throughout the week!

    This would be perfect! I have one of those mini hand held ones, that are ok, but this would do a much better job. You can make meals and make your own frozen dinners… or buy in bulk and freeze portions knowing that they won’t just get freezer burned. It looks less bulky than some of the other vacuum sealers too.

    I’m in college right now so cooking “in bulk” for later, easier meal prep is very necessary!! This would definitely help with storage!!

    This would be a great time/food saver. Every Sunday my husband and I cook up a few meals for ourselves and my parents. This would be much easier to distribute the portions and wouldn’t have to shuttle tupperware back and forth with the parents.

    My husband and I love to cook, but it’s only the two of us and we haven’t yet mastered cooking for two. I could use this to store all of our leftovers so that they stayed super fresh!

    Wonderful giveaway…thank you Tina. I would love this because I tend to eat breakfast foods for dinner and dinner foods for breakfast…and if I can cook them and save them at the wrong times (make sense) and then just eat them at the rigth times if I want, confusing…but I think you get it. :)

    This container saver would SAVE me because I’m a broke grad student, who loves to cook. So I spend most of my sundays making meals for the week. Then I freeze a bit of them for around that time of the month right before paychecks… so I still have something delicious to eat.

    I have been wanting to get a food saver or something similar to help streamline my meal prep. As it stands now, I usualy make an additional meal or two on Sunday afternoon to either eat later that week or freeze for future consumption. This would be a great product to ensure my food stays fresh and more importantly-no freezer burn!

    i love variety but when i buy several different kinds of fruits and veggies in a week, it’s hard to eat them quickly enough so they don’t go bad. looks like the foodsaver would help solve that problem.

    I’m a very poor first grade teacher who loves taking my breakfast, lunch, and snacks to school each day. This would help me keep all of my meals super fresh, especially since I’m around germy (but very sweet) children all day! :)

    I would use the vac machine to keep my food fresh! I would use it to sous vide cook a lamb shank dish I have been dreaming of making at home. I would use it to bottle up my sauces and make individual portions for ease of use in the kitchen. I could even imagine using it to keep tea, and herbs fresh. Finally, I bought some vanilla that would probably love it as well!

    on Dec 7th, 2009 at 8:51 am

    I would love a meal saver! I’m a student living on my own for the first time and cooking just for 1 person. When I make a dish, I usually end up having to eat it for an entire week since expiration dates become more like radioactive dates when you cook for only yourself. A meal saver would allow me to eat different things since left overs could last longer!

  63. #63 Coley Reply to this comment
    on Dec 7th, 2009 at 8:51 am

    I want one of these so badly!! I am a college student, and buy food in whatever form it is cheapest – aka bulk. But its only me, so a lot of times my food goes bad, and therefore not cheaper at all. So this would really save me some money!!

    I have been DYING for one of these! I am vegan my husband is not BUT he doesn’t like leftovers and won’t eat them. I have it figured out with soup – I freeze it in tupperware and give it to him a couple weeks later then it is “new and fresh” but I can’t quite get the non-soup meals to work like that. They need to be air free,

    this is so funny that this is a gift you are giving away because yesterday I was just browsing for one of these. My father has been wanting one for two years now and always makes an excuse why next year will be the year. My father hunts so we always have tons of deer meat plus he makes big batches of deer bbq, chili, stews, and more and we never know what to do with all of it. I want to buy him one for christmas but it is not in my budget haha. I would love to win this gift!!!

    Since my boyfriend and I eat mostly separate meals, I mostly am cooking for one. I always have tons of leftovers and I’d love one of these to freeze individual portion sizes that I could take out of the freezer for myself on a busy day.

    Oh my word I definately need this in my house. The FH thinks that it’s not safe to freeze anything in bags unless they are sealed using something such as a seal a meal or the one you are giving away. But they are too expensive so he won`t allow us to get one! instead he just always throws left over food away! I`m sick and tired of making a meal eating left overs once and him throwing the rest away! so frustrating!!

    My husband and I desperately need one of these! Things easily go to waste when just putting them in the fridge, but the freezer leaves an awful taste into foods and things often get freezer burned. With a vacuum sealer, we could save things longer and make soups or sauces and freeeze them in individual packages making smaller meals easy! We may actually start shopping wholesale knowing we could freeze the leftover food! :)

    One of the key components to living a healthy lifestyle is planning meals ahead of time. For me, this involves relying on a lot of frozen produce and protein.

    I am a FREAK about food being left in the fridge. I know it’s weird..but I have a sneaking suspicion that leftovers will go bad super quickly. I also feel bad about cooking on the weekend and saving it for the week when I’m too busy with classes to cook,even though I’m only cooking for myself..big food waster :(

    My fiance and I are actors, so we are on a tight budget all the time. We try to shop at big box stores for our perishable items, unfortunately they do tend to spoil so a vacume packer would be great for sealing all those very fresh things (meat/veggies) that are so good that tend to spoil so quickly without nasty preservatves!

    I try to stock my dad’s freezer whenever I’m home since he works long hours and usually doesn’t have time/energy/motivation to cook for himself and my little sister – so this would be great for me to make sure they’re getting good meals that aren’t all freezer burned (since all they eat when they run out of my meals is pasta, sandwiches or takeout! )

    I love to mix big batches of bread, pizza dough, biscuits and freeze them in a few portions – with a vacuum sealer they would last much longer. Plus my boyfriend just bought a deep freezer so that he can go hunting this year. A vacuum sealer will be great for protecting the wild game.

    I commute 3 hours each day to get to and from my job. In order to eat healthily, my husband and I cook healthy meals the Sunday before. This would be a great addition to our kitchen, as our meals would last longer and taste much fresher than keeping them in standard containers for the entire week.

    Thanks for the chance to win. Happy holidays!!

    Over the last year, I’ve started using my freezer probably 12x as much as I used to. I do a lot of cooking specifically for the freezer, which means I go through a lot of ziploc bags, plastic wrap, and plastic bowls. A vacuum sealer would condense a lot of this and would probably save me food that ends up going bad when a bag or bowl is broken.

    I have 3 kids at home, all teens & early 20’s that have schedules that never match up with dinners. While I end up making enough for all of us plus my fiance, end result is tons of leftovers. The great part is, even when the kids don’t want the leftovers because theyv’e eaten crappy take out foods… .I end up eating healthier when I have them around (I make better healthier foods so of course eating those leftovers would be better for me than going for take out). Add to that the fact that I need to watch my money, limited income on disability after cancer. Having the ability to keep leftovers fresh & handy to reuse quickly…. what more could I ask for?

    I try to make food ahead of time and save it for later but it always ends up going bad before I can eat it. Cooking for one can be difficult when recipes are made for multiple servings. This would be a great food saver!

    When trying to eat healthily on a budget, fresh food can be a nightmare because it can go bad fairly quickly. It would also make it easier to prepare meals in advance, so that lunches and meals on the go can be more healthy.

    I’m working on making better choices with my food. And with the help of this, I could plan ahead and make a big batch of something and throw it in the freezer and take it out on days when I’m starving and in a hurry. And then I wouldn’t be tempted to eat junk because it’s more convenient. It would also allow me to preserve veggies if I’ve bought more than I ate that week.

    I basically live at home alone most of the time. My dad’s an airline pilot so he’s always off at work so it just leaves me here. It’s so hard for me to eat things before they go bad so this would save me a lot of trouble when it comes to expiring!

    well, i have to admit, i have a grocery shopping addiction, and like you, eat mostly whole foods. so, in turn, my fresh veggies go bad quickly because my little snack bag ziplocs and glad-ware just don’t do the job! so, this would save me $$ and keep my greens fresh!

    This would be great for me since I make seperate meals for myself. Unfortunatly my whole family is not on board with the way I eat & although I work hard to change that, it is not there yet so I continue to make seperate meals for myself. This would sure make less waste & room in the freezer.
