Has anyone seen this in the stores yet? I am wondering if I could use my cannister sealer for my food saver and just buy the bags?

I bought some of the bags for this today. I am going to try using the attachment for my foodsaver and see if I can get it to work. I will report my results.

I bought one and love it. It's small and the bags are inventive. The object freaked my daughter out though. She looked at it, picked it up, started yelling (because it was on the kitchen table) "Oh my god, what is this? What is this?" and suddenly said "Oh, thank god, it says Reynolds on it." I couldn't resist replying "Yeah, Reynolds makes breast pumps for cats now." That's what it looks like, a tiny breast pump. I do like it though.

So there is a little suction cup that goes over the opening in the bag? Hmmm.

Yep. It literally does look like a breast pump for cats. It has a suction cup and then a chamber for any liquids that might get into it. And you have to have the bag flat on a hard surface to get the seal right.

I might get one. I think they were about 9 dollars at Kroger.

I saw them at Target this weekend and they were about $9.00. Looked at it and then put it down. All I could think was yet another thing to store somewhere.

Personally, I use freezer wrap paper. It's inexpensive and has always worked for me. I write the date, where I purchased the product and what's inside the package on the outside. Usually, I only buy what I will use within the month.

I can't decide. I already have the Foodsaver, I probably don't need it. I should figure out a way to attach a suction cup to the foodsaver.
