We use Lakeland's film on giant rolls that last a year or two. No
problem. It's in a wall-mounted box with a serrated cutting edge, that
works reliably until right at the end of the roll, when things start
getting tricky.
But for sarnies we've gone over to using Tupperware-style boxes (me) and
used magazine mailing bags (her).
