Wow, I found a Food Saver 550 complete with 6 rolls of bags at a garage sale for $5. And the best part is, it works! However, there is no instruction book, so I'm just having to go by trial and error. So far, so good, except I think maybe I ruined some cornbread when I vacuum sealed the leftovers. Not sure yet, because I'm not ready to reuse it, however, it looks like it sucked all the air out of the cornbread itself!
So, anyone else use one of these. (I'm pretty sure my Secret Santa has one, because my wonderful homemade cookies arrived in what appeared to be a very long vacuum packed bag.) I'm just looking for tips on what works well, and what doesn't.
BTW, I have 2 sizes of bags. (actually, since you cut the bags to whatever size you want, I guess I have more than just 2, but there are 2 size rolls in the box that I got.
