  • I will be buying a few packets (although not 88 :)). Thanks for this.
  • I don't think I could find the space to store 88 bags!!

    500g bags. I got some yesterday, thought it was a wrong shelf label, but went through!

    Might help someone!

    It's Tesco Value. I work at Tesco and can confirm that yes, we do value penne for 9p.

    What's funny is that we have them in the centre aisle (called the "power aisle") on display, right next to some kind of premium brand of penne, same size pack, for £2.99!

    :rotfl: I have a huge room for storage and storage bins for my non tin food :D

    88 packets should last until the expiry anyway :beer:

  • Thanks for the heads up on this - I have a Sainsburys and a Tesco near me - is there any difference in the pasta? i.e. does one taste better than the other? I usually buy the Aldi pasta because it tastes lovely.
