*hyperventilates* Omgomgomgomg
LOL! ๐
Maybe I’m not reading it right, but is it just for the card holder? It says something about cardholder and guests?
That’s what I’m wondering….
The never ending pasta is for the named passholder and the soft drinks are for the passholder and their same-table guests. ๐
Everybody is asking a lot of questions for a promotion where only 1000 are available throughout the entire country. This will sell out faster than probably any of you can get one!
I got one… woot!
I got one too!
So it’s unlimited drinks for same table guest, but not unlimited everything else correct? Or is it unlimited (all the things listed) for everyone in table?
their web site says Unlimited Coca-Colaยฎ soft drinks for you and same-table guests, so I’m assuming the food would only be for the card holder.
Unlimited drinks only for the entire table. Unlimited pasta for the cardholder only.
I just called the unlimited pasta is for cardholder only. the drink is included for all other guests at the table, not the food/pasta.
Just the drinks are for same table guests. The pasta is only for the cardholder!
This seems incredible! Does it cover anyone at your table? For 7 weeks???
Only people who have the pass can get free food for 7 weeks. Others on the same table have to pay for own food but can get unlimited free drinks, as I understand.
I wasn’t clear from the website. Is this online or in store?
I got mine online.
Looks like it says only the holder gets the pasta, but the guests get free drinks.
Unlimited pasta for card holder and unlimited Coke products only for entire table.
The unlimited pasta is just for the passholder, but everyone at the table gets unlimited Coke drinks for free.
Here is what the website says: “Olive Garden’s Never Ending Pasta Pass entitles the named passholder to unlimited Never Ending Pasta Bowl entrees and toppings 9/22/14-11/9/14 at any Olive Garden location in the United States. One use per visit. Passholder and guests at same table also receive Coca-Cola soft drinks and refills. Present to server at time of ordering.

Contact Olive Garden Guest Relations at (800) 331-2729. Expires 11/9/14”
I think only the named passholder gets the pasta, but the whole table gets free soda.
Seems pricey unless you eat there A LOT!
I agree…!
Agree! Even if I go there 5 days a week x 7 days= 35 meals. So about $3 each meal plus tips. And that’s not counting how much I have to spend on my 3 kids.
And at the end of 7 weeks how long does it take to work those calories off? Ahh… tempted but I will stay away!
So fun fact- I recently won the $500 survey at the bottom of the Olive Garden receipts. Well, it comes with a free magazine subscription for a year. THEN you must pay for it for like 4 years and you can’t cancel. It ends up costing more than your prize money. How dumb! I said no thanks!
I dont get it, did you get your $500?
what kind of magazine costs $500 for 4 years?!
Exactly! It’s not legit. It’s like they charge you that much on purpose where you end up paying but don’t realize it. And nope- I said no thanks!
That sounds bizarre and not like something a huge company like Darden would be involved in.
It was one of the surveys on the bottom of their receipts. That always say “call and let us know how your service was for a chance to win”
The unlimited drinks is for all guests. The pasta only for 1
OG site explains meal is for card holder, drinks free for card holder as well as same table guests.
Whoa- that has the potential to be a 7 week binge to gain 50 lbs! Man sakes alive…unlimited fet. alfredo! Haha! Good thing it’s a 25 minute drive and costs to park…my family won’t be tempted. ๐
Oh my gosh that can not be healthy. At least I know I would try to get the most out of it and would end up eating pasta two times a day for seven weeks and that would not be healthy!
Agree!!! I would try to get the most out of it, as well and would end up gaining weight. This is why I don’t like to go on cruises. I will not be going for this deal.
can you order and carry out? must dine-in?
I’m curious too. We have an Olive Garden within walking distance but if it’s dine in only the tips alone will add up quickly and be quite expensive.
I would also like to know if this is for dine-in only.
Hmm I’m tempted. If I win I’d just go eat lunch by myself at olive garden every day to make it worth it. Maybe a couple times invite the hubby and kiddos. I’m so craving their breadsticks now.
The servers will treat the patron like in the movie ‘waiting’ if they see this card. LOL
Sooooo on point!!!!!!
Batwing!
DINE IN ONLY!!!!
Not a good deal then IMO.
Yea not a good deal. You end up bringing your whole family in every time and having to pay for their meals and gratuity.
Seems like a great deal (as low as $1/meal if you eat lunch AND dinner there EVERY day for the 7 weeks) *if* you can commit to eating at OG frequently. I don’t think I could, and I *like* Olive Garden. It mentions being non-transferable, so it’s not like I could (officially) share it with an immediate family member and trade off days.
Funny ๐ Yes, I would say that you could record the experience like in Supersize me except this of course is wht Olive Garden does to you rather than McD’s. ๐
It says once a day…. If it was lol maybe not e people would a insider but I thi k people would get tired of tem and never go again this is my a good deal at all.. U eat one time a day and its only pasta… U have to done in and it’s not clear if soup/ is I clouded last time we had something like this my cousin bought a card and was charged 5.99 for salad and breadsticks…
very tempting but 20 pounds gain in the end of 7 weeks may not worth it…as we tend to eat as much as we can to make the pass worth $100!
So true….
I was tempted for a minute thinking I could just eat a bite and take the rest home to family, until I thought of all the tip money I would end up spending. Yikes. So maybe this is only great for those that work by an Olive Garden and would use it every day for lunch…Still, I would get sick of pasta every day….
Interesting idea, though, for Olive Garden. They will make a lot of money off this promotion AND get people to bring in their family or friends….
You could probably just do the soup and salad some of the times!
This would not be good for this pregnant woman, lol. Id gain way too much weight!!!
If I was one of those lucky women who could eat all they wanted and not gain weight I would totally be all over this. lol Olive Garden is my absolute favorite. Kind of bummed as it looks like they won’t be bringing back Never Ending Pasta bowl for everyone. My fiance hates pasta but last year he actually really liked the promotion and took me there like once every other week.
Melissa, they’re bringing it back – they even have a countdown timer on the website ๐ 13 days!
WOW! This doesn’t seem healthy or a good deal unless you eat there everyday or something and this is coming from a person that loves pasta:-)
You still have to leave a tip….$2 per usage, if used daily…..that is another $100.00/So this is would cost the user $200.00, for daily use. Seems high to me.
Cool!
Is it for dine in only?
Yes, dine in only.
Does this deal come with a free gym membership at the end of the 7 weeks???
Please someone come back and tell us if they got this deal!
I was tempted at first, but when I have to add in the cost of my daughter and husband eating, it just isn’t worth $100. It would still cost us at least $20 before tip every time we went. It’s a great deal for anyone single or who tends to eat lunch without their family though ๐
what time is it for chicago
would you have to pay for toppings like chicken?
This is my favorite place to go eat at! Is this true cause I would love to win this!
I think this should be re-worded,it sounds like everything is for everyone at the table but it’s not and it’s a little deceiving…..
ummm this is a HUGE waste of money in my opinion unless you plan on going every day alone… pasta is the cheapest thing to make and this is only for basic pasta meals, chicken or meatballs, etc will be extra. NO THANKS
Yes, I agree. This sounds like a ripoff to me.
I didn’t think of it that way, but I can see your point. Yes, pasta is very cheap and if there’s no protein involved this wouldn’t be a good deal at all.
Yep, totally agree
How do you get the deal
Wow…they will be pulling in $100,000.00 in short time when this goes live.
Here’s more info – looks like takeout of the leftovers (you must dine in first, of course) is okay. https://consumerist.com/2014/09/08/olive-garden-offering-100-never-ending-pasta-pass-for-7-weeks-of-food/
