AUDIO: OLIVE GARDEN PASTA PASSES SELL OUT IN 1 SECOND
Olive Garden put 22,000 of its once-a-year Pasta Passes on sale last Thursday at 2 p.m. All 22,000 sold out in less than a second. The $100 passes entitle the holder to eights weeks of unlimited food beginning September 25 – including pasta, soup, salad and breadsticks. This will be the fourth year of the Pasta Pass.
* This is a great deal except for, you know, “Olive Garden”.
* Isn’t the basic message of this promotion: “Olive Garden – Featuring Food People Hate Paying Regular Price For.”
* They chose 8 weeks ’cause 9 weeks would kill you.
* Actually, around 5 weeks in, you’ll be too big to get in the door.
* “Pack on the pounds, carboholics! Swimsuit Season is ending!”
