Vac-Pac all the things...

Bloody hell I might try this

If you buy from Noel Lemmings you can use your Farmlands card, saved me $20 on the bags. I used to have a cheap vac packer but recently upgraded to a new sunbeam one. Very happy.

I vacuum pack a heap of lunches for my clients, some salami or similar, some cheese, raisins, a few cookies, muesli bar, choc bar etc etc. I buy the bulk boxes of bits and pieces at the supermarket, anything that might get squishy I put in a zip lock bag first. Then I throw all the bits on the bench and make up piles of lunch size food, then vacuum pack them. No 2 are the same, you can see whats in them from the out side, and the clients get to pick and choose.

And if Im fly camping I make up evening meal packs, everything needed for me and clients for an evening meal, including tea, coffee etc. Vacuum pack that all up and label it. And clients are told that if Im not back in time for dinner, then everything needed for dinner is in that pack and to start without me.

What are the costs of packing a small item like a sandwich for example?
Do the bags come in different grades?

I have issues with tools etc which sit in my boat and only get used in semi emergency situations. They deteriorate due to salt environment. Would the bags be robust enough to handle this?

Maybe if you put a coat of Lanox/Wd40/CRC on the tools before bagging them it couldn't hurt?
