CVS Scenarios - week of 10/26

There seem to be a variety of deals this week. A number of them are buy $10 or $20 get ECBs type deals. These can be pretty good if you have some coupons to match, of course the OOP is not as low as normally expected, but the cost on the items works out to be pretty good.
