You can use fprintf - very nicely explained here with examples - http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/fprintf.html

x = rand(5,1);
save example.mat 'x'
is simple and can be easily recalled with
load example
Alternatively, you may look into controlling random number generation with rng. By controlling the seed number you can consistently get the same "random" numbers every time you call rand.
