Anyone have a Foodsaver system?

I received one for Christmas and absolutely love it. I want to get some of the accessories like the mason jar sealers and the canistors and was wondering if any local stores carry these. I know I can order off of Amazon but would rather be able to locate these things so I can see them first.

We get our supplies from BJ's wholesale club.

Kohls, but they're always overpriced it seems unless there's a sale. Target might have them.

What a great invention...so many uses for it

We got ours before Christmas and love it too!

I had no idea I can buy accessories. Not even sure what kind you can get. We got some canisters with ours. Dh promptly sealed up his precious coffee

I think you can get the accessories at Wal-Mart also.

I was wondering about them myself. Good to know a lot of you like yours!

I've always wondered if people actually use them. I kind of want one- but thought maybe it would just be another item, to have around, and not use.

So convince me that its not wasted money.

I always have left overs. Usually enough for a meal for one. I took some ham and beans I made and put them in a plastic bowl and froze them over night. They came out very easily as a block. I sealed it and stuck it back in the freezer. I did the same with left over spaghetti sauce. We'd had it for a couple of days and were tired of it.

Dh travels a lot and sometimes doesn't eat dinner. Although he never asks me to make him anything when it's late it will be wonderful to have something I can just pop in the microwave for him.

I'm still getting the hang of this.

I want to get some canisters and also the mason jar sealers. There is also an accessory for wine. The canisters are used when you want something sealed but do not want to crush it. Chips, cereal, fruit, veggies.
