I just happened to be at the dollar store and since its time to start harvesting from the garden I stocked up on some bags. These are my best value bags, 1.25 for 12 freezer bags, so that's 11 cents per serving.
Resized_20190819_151124_3195.jpgIf you notice in the news lately a lot of talk about banning single use plastic, I don't know what will come of this talk, but since freezing is my favorite way to store food from the garden I am going to be stocking up big time,and I mean big time, just in case!! 110 dollars will buy 1000 bags,cheap if you ask me! I think I roughly need about 4000-5000 bags of this size, that will roughly carry me through about 10 years of premade soup meals, I think I use about 300 to 400 of this size bags in a year.
I hope these bags don’t get hit with plastic ban. I reuse my bags until seal breaks down. Simply turn them inside out and rinse with hot water, let dry and reuse!
Either for food or for none perishable preps.
I only heard about this plastic ban thing second hand, I went looking to read up on it on line, and it looks pretty comprehensive and is coming fast. I am going to have to stock up, but long term I may have to find a good brand of reusable containers, but hundreds of containers will take up so much room.
