There are 2 passes.

One for $100 that allows a lone diner to eat as many plates of pasta including free drinks, breadstick, salad or soup as one can devour and make as many trips as they can between October 5th and November.

Then there is one for $300 that allows the purchaser to bring up to 3 guests and everyone gets the same benefits as many times as they want to visit until the deal expires in November.

Well, in the past prior to last year, every October to November, Olive Garden would had the never ending pasta bowl.

It's the same promotion except anyone can walk into one of their restaurant and get this promotion for $10 a person.

Last year they decided to sell passes in the shape of a plastic card.

So if you weren't able to buy one of those passes online, you can't get the never ending pasta bowl promotion.

I am the kind of person that would visit once and get my fill and never go back again during the promotion period so it wouldn't make sense to me to pay $100 to buy a single diner pass that I will only use once.

I guess that's what Olive Garden figured on.

People will pay $100 or $300 and only use it once or twice and they will make a bigger profit this way.

The single diner $100 pasta passes are being sold on EBay for as much as $400 which makes no sense for anyone to buy it even if it's $1.

When you receive your pasta pass, it will have your name on it just like a credit card and the servers at Olive Garden will check to make sure you are the person named on the pass.
