Barilla Orzo (1 lb. box) for 78 cents with free shipping on Amazon, and my favorite summer orzo salad recipe


I absolutely love this deal because 1) I have so many great orzo recipes and it's such a great, light summertime dish 2) even though it's a Subscribe & Save deal, you only need to buy 8 boxes, not 12 3)  78 cents per lb. shipped, holy cow!

Amazon has a fantastic deal on this 8-count pack of Barilla Orzo, stacking a high-value 20% off coupon with a Subscribe & Save discount, which brings this in as low as $6.24 (!!!!) or just 78 cents per box.

Ok, so first, "clip" the 20% off coupon.  That's 20% off the pre-discount price of $9.60, or $1.92.  So that means that you'll get a flat discount of $1.92, no matter what you end up paying on Subscribe & Save.

Then the Subscribe & Save pricing works out as follows:

Remember that you don't need to be a member of Amazon Prime to get free shipping on ANY Amazon Subscribe & Save deal...shipping is free for anyone.
