What a fantastic idea! :thumbup:

No more spilled dried beans, macaroni, etc.
Don't have to grapple with rubber bands that are tied too tightly.

How to seal a bag and make it air-tight!

Cut up a disposable water bottle and keep the neck and top, as in photo.

Insert the plastic bag through the neck and screw the top – to seal. (see 2nd photo)
(Pull the opening of the bag through the opening of the cut bottle.)

The bottle is made to be air-tight, such that water will not leak,

the secret lies with the top and screw!

Good for us and the environment too.

:lol:

I bet these could be used in the freezer too. I will try this as I have lots of plastic soda bottles. What a neat and uncostly idea!
