My brother and I called it "eating down the freezer" before we bought any new stuff.

an industrial vacu-sealer is a great item. i've lost 2 strip steaks & 4 filets to my fridge. in a few wks. many fresh veggies, too.
btw, my vacuum sealer is dusty & i could not get that thing shut half the time. & i lost the plastic to cut into bags. this is why it's now dusty. luv the cryovacs we used in school/work.
