Saving on purchases of food
By Donna Flood

10 February 2008 · Food

Today, February 10, 2008 an add was placed in the paper telling one of the discount foods store had potatoes on sale, 1.88 for 10 pounds.  By watching the newspaper these adds can be quickly spotted. I bought 30 pounds.Not all at once will I peel them, but concentrated energies will go to peeling these in a large bowl of water and sprinkling Fruit Fresh over them.  This will keep the potatoes from turning brown. Place them in a quart size baggie with some of that water and freeze. When you need potatoes for soup, frying, stir fry, there they are, all ready to go. I always make a point to serve the foods the stores are closing out. This weekend it is potatoes and cucumbers. The cucumbers are 3 for 1 dollar.The new potato crop will be coming on soon, so out with the old, in with the new!
