Marketing…

I quite liked the Mercadona ‘Pasta Salad with Tuna’, a huge (1 kilo I’m pretty sure) pack, as it was nice and easy to prepare and tasty, especially adding some spicey olive oil and maybe an onion. At €2, great value. I noticed that the packaging had changed and I examined it more closely.

The pack is now divided into two separate sections – quite reasonable really, as I never (rarely) ate the lot in one sitting. However, a little sticker had been placed on the pack, ‘new recipe’, and the price had gone up to €2.30. Still not too bad, really.

A little later, I was passing the shelf once again – when do men ever shop logically – when I spotted something else ‘new’ with the pasta salad. From a single 1 kilo pack it is now 2 x 400 gram sections. If it definitely was 1 kilo before, makes it a bit more of a price hike.

No doubt this would be: Secluded rustic country property with great potential. Minor renovations needed, would suit DIY hobbyist.
