John, all three 100 packs of bags in the VacMaster close out section were between $15-$25 per pack. Total of $55 for 300 bags of very good quality. I am very pleased with the sealer and the bags.
Have vacuum sealed several steaks from Walmart that were marked down. I also took the two pack of Boston Butts that I got from Sams last weekend and vacuum packed them individually.....just to see if I could do it. Had to go to an 11.5" roll (Ziplock) that I got at Walmart but worked just fine.
Lastly, took Greg's advice and vacuum sealed the majority of the bulk wood that was delivered in the last couple of weeks. It was unbelievable how well it worked for doing that.
So if you get the Pro140 from the VacMaster website, don't be afraid to give it a work out! It can take it and you'll have a blast!
