My local Acme is having a clearance sale on their store brand "Signature Select" soups.  2-for-$1 !!!!

I just bought a BUNCH.

So check your local Acme to see if they are having same clearance sale.  At this price they wont' last long.

but are they any good (tasty) ?

I would say they are in the middle.  Not the best, not the worse.  I like the "Chicken & Dumplings" a lot. 

And how much can you screw up "Chicken and Rice" or "Chicken Noodle"??

I also look at it as a way to stock my shelves / prep in as inexpensive way as possible.

The expiration on most of the cans I spot checked seemed to be 2023.  I'm sure I'll have used them all up by them and hopefully will be able to take my time in replacing them when other similiar items are also on sale.

They've had sales on the progresso and campbell's soups as well in the past.  I've bought a bunch the last time to sample, and keep a running log of ones I like/dislike.  Like you I look at it as a cheap/easy way to prep.

So personally, I'd take that as 3-5 years passed "use by date" if you haven't rotated stock by then.
