Save 29% on a vacuum sealer that works to save 'food and money'

While shopping for food in bulk has long been hailed as one of the best ways to stretch your budget, it can backfire if you don't actually get around to eating it in time. Proper storage is an easy way to ensure that your food stays fresh for as long as possible, and if you're looking to branch out past a sea of Tupperware containers, it may be time to invest in a vacuum sealer.

The Voriah Vacuum Sealer Machine has been trending at Amazon Canada, (sales this week spiked more than 14,000 per cent!) and it's on sale now for $50.

If you've never used a vacuum sealer on your food before, it may be time to consider adding one to your collection of kitchen essentials. When used on items like meat or vegetables, this vacuum sealer helps preserve freshness for up to ten times longer than other storage methods.

Thanks to a highly effective vacuum pump, this machine quickly suctions air out of most freezer bags to help prevent freezer burn and reduce food waste. It features multiple settings to tackle a range of foods, including everything from meat to dried goods to baked treats. Once sealed and frozen, your favourite foods can be preserved for up to three years.

Included with each vacuum sealer, you'll also get a user manual, power cord, ten vacuum bags, and an air straw set with two heads.

Amazon shoppers have called this "a great little sealer" that works well to keep food fresh. It's earned a 3.9-star average rating from hundreds of customer reviews, with shoppers praising its ease of use and value for money.

Shoppers agree that this vacuum sealer is "worth every penny," and works well on "foods like chicken breasts, steaks, [and] pork roasts."

It's also a great for "saving food and money," as bulk food purchases can be divided into smaller portions for use at different times.

If you're new to vacuum-sealing food, this unit has been called "a breeze to use," as it features simple one-touch controls.

"Other vacuum sealers can eat their hearts out!" added another.

While many reviewers say that the Voriah vacuum sealer works just as well as more expensive models, they note that the suction can take longer than anticipated.

"Both the vacuum and sealing cycles are slow," explained one reviewer.

Whether you're an avid gardener, a bulk shopper, or a meal prepper, a food vacuum sealer is a worthwhile purchase to help keep your food fresh for as long as possible. At its current sale price of $50, the Voriah Vacuum Sealer Machine is one of the most affordable options around.

Reviewers have been impressed by its suction power and ability to store food for longer. However, you may find that you have to give yourself a little extra time for this machine to do the job.
