$5 & $10 CVS Scenarios for the Weekly Ad of September 21, 2014

Below are deal scenarios for the CVS ad for the week of 9/21/14.   Included in the scenarios are StarBucks Refreshers and in the $10 one, bottled water.   These are great for shoppers just starting their CVS shopping adventure or who do not have any or many extra bucks on hand and do not want to spend much cash. There are scenarios for $5 out of pocket cash and $10 out of pocket cash.
