I want to know where the deb files that are downloaded during the installation from the software center are stored.

Its easy to download I know, but here in my country, bandwidths are extremely limited and it would be better to get the deb file for te next time rather than waiting a complete night for download!

Aslo, I would like to know where the deb files downloaded during updates are stored.?

Thank you!

This does not mean you will be able to copy everything over to another computer and have them install without internet. normally there is a lot of dependencies needed. though it should save you from downloading large amounts of the same data.
