    I put mine in a basket covered/tucked in sheets of newspaper, leave in a dark cool place. They last me for weeks.
  • My potatoes last me months! i get them in September and still can be using them in March! I get given loads, plus i get them for free :D i love looking through for all the big ones at the farm before they get nicked by the chippy man lol
    Is a Bipolar bear :p
  • I started keeping mine in a small fridge in the garage one summer and that's where they go now - not really necessary in the winter lol - but I'm in the habit now.
  • the best to keep them in the carage, and don't keep them in fridge is not good.
