Welcome!

Coupons for Causes LA is an organization that uses coupons to buy items to donate to Upward Bound House, a local charity. Upward Bound House assists homeless families with minor children by providing housing and support services along with food and personal supplies. Using coupons and sales we are able to save over 90% off retail on a variety of products, which means UBH gets more products to help families in need. The more coupons we have the more deals we can get, so please consider donating your Sunday paper coupons. Or you can shop along with us, as we show you where to find the best freebies and deals around town! Start your own donation bag, and see how quickly it fills up:)

$.34 thanks to the CVS coupon machine

One of my favorite things about CVS is the "magic" coupon machine in each store.  When you scan your CVS card it prints out in-store coupons.  CVS allows you to stack coupons, meaning you can use a store coupon and a manufacturer coupon on the same item.  So, the machine coupons can often turn into great deals. 

This trip I didn't need any manufacturer coupons!  Here is what the machine printed and what I purchased:

$2 off any hair accessory item
Bought Connair hair elastics priced at $2.34, paid only $.34 plus tax

$1 off any Nivea hand or body lotion product
Bought the blue Nivea Creme tin priced at $.99, item was free.

CVS also often prints coupons on your receipt.  This trip I got a $5 off any purchase of $15 or more, and a 25% off your next purchase (which only applies to full-price items, not sale items).  The combination of all these great coupons and a great coupon policy make CVS a really great spot to shop:)
