This weekend only (8/18/12-8/19/12) American Beauty pasta is on sale at Frys store for 39 cents/lb (package). You can also ad match this at Walmart during the same time period. Not only is this an excellent price, but it would be a great opportunity to increase your food storage.
Sister Ferguson will be getting the dry pack canner for use at her house very soon. About 3.5 pounds of pasta fits in a #10 can.
