I've not found that growing my own potatoes is cheaper, but fresh from the garden potatoes are SO tender! In the past years I have tried to find cultivars that are tastier and more expensive to purchase than regular old russetts. I grew red potatoes last year, I really want to try yukon gold or something else tasty and buttery this year. I'm too chicken to try purple or blue potatoes!

I have grown potatoes in trashcans and grow bags the past few years...not terribly impressed with the yield vs how much I spent on potting soil. oh well, it's still pretty cool to do!
