Cheap spuds at Morrisons

I cook potatoes that are sprouting,I cut the sprouting bits off and use them as normal. Why would you not ? If they're soft or black I throw them.

I should have been more specific, sprouting, soft and about to rot at this time of year, if they are last summer's crop.

My local morry hasn't had sacks of spuds for about 4 weeks so I would happily grab one for less than a 3.5kg bag!

I've been getting the basic bags and they sprout - so I just peel them a little more than I would normally.
Thanks OP.

went into to Morrisons today to stock up on their tins of car food 6 for £2.. and I picked up a sack of spuds for £2.. there were loads there, and I think practically every shopper that came in grabbed a bag lol...


I bought a 25kg bag of spuds last time from a farm shop, and they didn't last as long as they normally do, before sprouting etc... and I think they were roughly about £9 per sack....


so with these being 12.5kgs we will def use them up before they go on the turn lol...

I bought one of these bags of spuds yesterday. I'd cooked up some whoopsied mince in the slow cooker and now I have six plastic tubs of cottage pie stashed away in the freezer! Good, tasty, home made food at a bargainlicious price! And loads of spuds left over so on Sunday I'm going to cook some in their jackets for when the family come over to go with a buffet I'm doing. I love a bargain I do!

Yay we got a sack today - haven't opened it yet but it's got to be better than the sacks from a few months ago that were awfull.
Having said that, they didn't have any for at least the last 3 weeks here.

There's very little soil on mine.
