CVS deals week 9/28-10/4

Ugh! Once again we received a test market ad this week (Ohio). The ad is very short with very few deals- only 3 ECB's!!! The only good thing is the deals match up to this week's newspaper coupons.

Campbell's soup or Swanson broth 2/$1 (limit 6)- there is a $0.40/3 coupon for Swanson broth in this Sunday's newspaper insert

Coke/Diet Coke 12 pks 4/$13- get $3 ECB back (limit 1) so pay 4/$10= $2.25 each- any time Coke is under $3 we buy it up!

Folgers 11.3 oz $1.99 (limit 4)- there is a $0.25 off coupon in this week's P&G insert

Softsoap $0.99 (limit 6)- does anyone know of any Softsoap coupons? we did not get any this week

Colgate Total 6 oz 2/$5- get $2 ECB back (limit 2)- use 2- $1 off coupons in this week's paper

VO5 shampoo or conditioner 2/$1 (limit 6)- are there any VO5 coupons out there?
