I think I need a vacuum packaging. Or maybe shrink packaging? But i have no idea how to do it. Because even cheapest device for it is pretty expensive. What do?

Save your money. If you intent to sell on SR, you will NEED a food grade vac sealer, at the very least.
For the time being, buy some cheap moisture barrier bags on ebay. Use a house hold iron to seal them.

Yes, that will do. You NEED to get a vac sealer. You dont have to spend a stack on an industrial one. Bottom of the line FoodSaver, $60 bucks, will suffice. Just be sure to seal each pack multiple times. Smell is permeable threw each bag with in 24hrs typically.
Since where on the topic, also, be sure to wear latex gloves when packing and handling customers merchandise. Im sure you know not to try any make the packs smell like anything, such as perfume or dryer sheets. Best of luck.
