Sadly mistaken. I do not buy my tomato juice. I make my own canned tomato
juice directly from fresh off the vine tomatoes that uses a Victoria
Strainer. Canned tomato sauce and paste is made from tomato juice boiled
down. I do this every year in September.

Your reasoning is also flawed. In the stores tomato juice is often cheaper
than tomato paste, over buying paste and add water for the same quantity.
Most fruits in it's natural juice taste better than adding tap chlorinated
water to tomato paste, so it is not the same product. Mentioned also, just
wait for paste to go on sale? Why not wait for tomato juice to go on sale.
