Impulse Sealer

I am wondering if a vacuum sealer like the Food Saver or the Rival Seal-a-Meal can be used to seal regular plastic bags. I don’t necessarily need the air to be vacuumed out but I want to be able to reseal stuff like pepperoni or hotdogs or stuff from the freezer like chicken fingers etc (in their original packaging).
Has anyone tried this? I would not imagine it would not damage the sealer (as long as the plastic is thick enough).
