Not just that, with a vacuum sealer it is more practical to get stuff like the Costco/Sams whole cuts. I've avoided those previously, even though they were quality meat at a great price, I knew that some would be wasted or frozen improperly. With one of these things I'll buy them.
I've wanted one of these for years, and put it off for varying reasons (money, wife, counter space...etc.). This time I just said "screw it, I want it." I find myself saying that more and more as I grow older.
And this is a good deal. At the list price, I would probably want the thing to have at least one more "vacuum attachment." Well, we are saved from that requirement.
