I have six 10lb bags of potatoes, and I don't want them all to rot to hell before I can eat them. What do you think I should do with them?
Make them into alcohol!
Plant and grow them.

Make a bunch of different potato dishes and just freeze it all after.
Make a shitload of fries.

Stop after step 2 and freeze them for a while.

Could you boil it instead for the first step, so the skin doesn't get extra dry later?

You could boil it, sure. But I think that would probably leave you with a soft flabby skin. It takes a long time to get a good crispy skin on a baked potato, and the 2nd baking isn't long enough to do that. The 2nd baking is quick--all you're doing is reheating it as the potato is already cooked.

I can't advise boiling it, but try the recipe. It turns out perfect and the skin isn't too dry at all.
You can also slice the potato clean in half, do the mixture you want and add something like cracked eggs on top and stuff them back in the oven. Cook until the eggs are cooked how you like your eggs.
A Spanish omelette is also another good way to use potatoes.

I came here to make this exact post.
They freeze and thaw beautifully.
Take this chance to make about three different types of soups and stews. Place the cooled food into sandwich baggies for individual portion sizes, and then stack these bags in your freezer.
I rotate stew bags from freezer to fridge to bowl as a way to eat cheaply, but with a good variety. After a few Soup Saturdays, you won't get bored with your options.
first, they'll keep 6 mo in the cool dark space. next, slixe, parboil or fry, drain well, and freeze, your fries and hashbrowns will actually be better fir it.
mashed potatoes do not freeze well

I pressure can some of my white potatoes after dicing them. They are then the right size for soups or pasties. They will be cooked once canned.
They literally store for years if you can them. You can get mason jars for next to nothing on Craigslist and I rebuilt an old canner that I found on eBay. This is the canner and the info that I used to rebuild it:

I am a redneck and grow my own vegtables so canning is a super healthy, long term and inexpensive way to preserve your food. Plus, I make out during certain times of year and buy local inexpensive foods and have them all year.
