    My M&S does. Different branches stock different ranges depending on size. The current offer of pasta+sauce+two ciabatta for £3 (not £5) is a brilliant one and I've stocked up.

    Anyway....why does it have to be that exact pasta? Just think of the shape...you don't want tubes or skinny pasta like spaghetti, you want something flattish that will hold tiny scoops of the sauce. The most obvious choice would be farfallie (bows) as has been said.

    I have looked in Asda, mind you I have looked in Tesco, but I will look again:D
  • Pretty sure that Sainsbury's sell the pasta you wanted.

    Jamie Oliver did a lot of advertising with Sainsburys and they do stock a very big selection of pasta in the store I work in.

    They had this in Aldi earlier 99p a bag, although I'm not 100% sure on the size i'm pretty sure it was 500g.
