Vacuum-Bagging Fights Inflation ♦
Food packagers are trying to hide the inflation in food prices by shrinking the size of packages rather than raising the price of the old-sized package. It’s not working, really. Food prices are still going up, even as the packages get smaller.
Still there are some ways to fight back. Lou Dolinar recommends vacuum packing your food: buy a huge bag (or container, or what have you have) of food at a someplace like Sam’s Club. Then bring it home and use a vacuum packer to repackage it into smaller, more meal-sized packages. Freeze or refrigerate until needed.
I think it might be worth a whirl. Also, I like buying (and using) gadgets.
