Today, I used my Foodsaver for doing something that I've used it before a number of times - keeping non-food items from drying up, keeping them as good as new, until needed. This time, it was some Sharpies - I had just opened a box of a dozen (I use these a lot, marking things in my workshop and garden, so I buy them in large packs), and took 3 out, and Foodsavered the rest. Sharpies keep fairly well, but eventually dry out, but not this way! I also do this with Gorilla Glue - the polyurethane glue that goes bad fairly quickly, just absorbing humidity out of the air, even though they have caps on them - learned this the hard way! Using this method, I have never wasted any.
Another use for Foodsaver - keeping Sharpies, and similar items from drying out. Will stay fresh for years. by pepperhead212, on Flickr
