Most of the time I wait till they are one sale for $1 or less. The price you see of $22.08 for 16 is not out of line, but can be better depending on where you shop or live. Perhaps the cost of living where you live is way high? **Q: are you really charging almost $8.00 for a box of pastina? there surely must be some mistake.** A: I got one box for .79 cents. Maybe prices fluctuate? I've kept coming back to buy some more but now it says "unavailable". **Q: Do you really think $51.11 is a reasonable price for this item?** A: Hi there - We're so that this happened. We are aware of pricing inconsistencies on some of our products sold by third party sellers, and we’re doing what we can to work with retailers in solving the issue. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I will buy it again *by G***S on June 5, 2026* Good stuff… I made Pastina for my sick Aunty…. she really loved it… 🥰 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great pasta for those with issues swallowing *by B***R on February 26, 2026* This is the only pasta I can eat due to issues with swallowing.
