Odd I know, but I have a ton of 3 gallon buckets and lids from publix bakery trips. Do they exist?
I'm getting too much dead space with smaller bags and need to pack another pile of rice, beans, elbow pasta, salt, sugar, etc.

They sure do! Get yourself a 5 gallon bag. Put it in your 3 gallon bucket. Fill until bucket is full. Cut off excess. Seal.

Keep excess, make smaller bags. Fill. Seal.

Can you get airtight lids for them? Why not pack with smaller bags, then fill the dead space with rice/beans as needed and seal with an oxygen absorber in it?
