Olive Garden Says You Can't Share Or Sell Your $100 "Never Ending Pasta Pass"



PSA: Olive Garden Says You Can't Share Or Sell Your Pasta Pass
The Huffington Post | By Emily Thomas

Olive Garden’s sold out, seven-week-long unlimited pasta pass promotion just hit its first big hump -- if eating Olive Garden for nearly two months wasn't already considered an obstacle.

After all 1,000 of the company's limited edition, $100 "Never Ending Pasta Passes" were sold within hours on Monday, dozens of lucky pass-holders decided to capitalize by turning to eBay.

There's just one big problemo: Olive Garden says the passes are “non-transferable and may not be re-sold."

As of Thursday afternoon, 48 passes were up for auction on eBay, many listed at prices between $150-500. Fortunately for those who already purchased a pass on the secondary market, Olive Garden says it’s willing to be flexible to ensure pasta-lovers aren't turned away.

Never Ending Pasta Passes is worse than Olive Garden itself.

You just made a couple of hundred bucks off of your pass? Fine-- you must eat at Olive Garden every night for a month.

Hope you like breadsticks.
