I second this paper towel way, it's what I do.

Food saver and a roll of paper towels...our new one ( about 3 years old) holds the roll in the machine...and has a built in cutter...

I have that same unit (I have both) but was disappointed how the machine required the insertion of the bag to start the vacuum automatically compared to the basic machine that requires you to start the vacuum by pressing a button. I found the cheaper bags do not have the same thickness and sometimes would not move the flap inside to start the vacuum. I also didn't like the amount of excess bag required to activate the vacuum. It does make for a more compact setup since the bag roll stores inside and allows for both hands to hold the bag during the process which may make it more attractive to people who aren't as cheap as me though. For now I still use my old basic seal a meal 95% of the time.

first believe that it's possible
that's the most important thing

then hold your arms up to the sky
face the direction you want it to go
and begin your chant holding a raven feather

seagull feathers don't work at all
in fact you might create a hurricane
HURRICANE Guppy - LOL

Craig, you try it first with a brown duck feather, you'll probably get snow with the wind, just saying
