>> Perfect time to find another as I was planning to dry much more this year. <<
Found a new Nesco foodsaver at closeout and grabbed it a few weeks ago , so we’re duobled up also..

GREAT!
I particularly plan to do a large quantity of tomatoes - after trying blending them into powder and then using them in cooking, plan to do quite a few. Even plan to do the spaghetti sauce ‘leather’ that some have written about.
With the vacuum jar sealer, it should be terrific.
Was in town for a dog collar (to replace broken one for Lucky Dog, who lunges hard if anything comes in the yard) and stopped at the Big Lots to see if they had canning lids yet... They only had 48 boxes of Regular size (I took 40 of them toward 2011 stock - I already have them for this year - figured I would leave 8 in case someone desperate might be trying to find some) and the 99 cent price is history - they are now $1.25. Quart jars are $7.95 and pints are $6.75 - Golden Harvest brand.
One thing that some of you might be interested in - they had quite a few (about 15) Ron Popeil (sp) dehydrators (remember them from TV?) for $25 each. 5 tray models. Sounds like a reasonable price if you are looking for one.
