Yeah I have a handheld foodsaver and their mealsaver thing too. You can do a fair job though with simple freezer bags if you lay things flat and roll them up to force the air out.
Whole chicken is a decent deal too. 88 cents a pound around these parts and easy to butcher into whatever portions you want, plus you get the bones to make stock from. All old school stuff really.
I take my green onions and replant the root section (or just set it in a plastic tub with a 1/4 inch of water) and in a weeks time they're back up to almost full size. If I discover a clove of garlic has a sprout in it, I'll take another clove or two from the bulb and plant them. They shoot up pretty quick and the garlic chive makes a nice addition instead of a clove too. Very strong flavor, just add it later.
The list goes on and on.
