Hi everyone,
Just been reading this thread and seriously considering buying a vacuum sealer.  Those who bought them from ebay from the site that Amanda posted, are you still happy with them and do you use them much?
Thanks!

Yes Karen I am still happy with mine - don't use it all that much but it is handy when I do need it.  If you buy meat in bulk I imagine it would be extremely handy.

Used mine the on new years eve as I deliberately went to the super market half an hour before they closed to get meat bargains. 8kg gammon joint on the bone for £5!  Home, butchered and vac packed ready for smoking later in the year.
Vac packed blanched sprouts at £1 for 10kg  why waste a bargain?  vac packer pays for itself over and over.
This year going to try cooking sous vide..........

Hally I used mine to vac pac all the sweets prior to Christmas as we travelled on mass to Ayr for Christmas - all froze and travelled well.  The difference in price to the ones available in the stores here the bargain was too great an offer topass and I have had no problems  :)  :)
