Reynolds is marketing a "new" approach for vacuum food storage that I think may be of interest. Called "Handi-Vac", it's a hand held, battery operated vacuum pump that uses special quart and gallon sized zip lock bags with a vacuum valve on them. Pack the bag with frozen fruit, seal the zip, then vacuum the air out. Takes less than a minute.
Bags are can be opened at the zip for food removal, then reclosed and re-vacuumed.
Price is under $20 for the starter kit with the vacuum and some bags. Bag cost is not much more than name brand. I've had one for a couple of months and its been working very well for my frozen gooseberries. I long ago gave up on other, more expensive vacuum sealers but this one has been worthwhile.
(Hope this is not consider OT)
