You'll probably not be able to achieve a good vacuum using ziploc bags
with a foodsaver. The food saver machine is designed to use only bags
made with a "channel" pattern. Of course, if you have a model that will
allow you to heal seal independently, you could achieve a seal.

Press out as much air as possible from the package then seal it. Sort
of like the procedure used with the Daisy Seal-a-Meals from several
years back.
