Ulta GWPs

This thread will be for Ulta GWPs only.  Share ulta promos here.  

 

Please do NOT post requests for the spreadsheet in this thread.  Please post requests for the Ulta GWP google spread sheet in this thread: http://community.sephora.com/t5/Off-Topic/Ulta-GWP-Google-Spreadsheet-Request-Thread/m-p/2753063#M11...

 

A list of in store coupons is here: https://community.sephora.com/t5/Savvy-Shoppers/Ulta-GWP-Coupons-no-chatter/td-p/3866521

 

Let's keep this thread on topic!

 

Ulta points refresher (because yes, it is that complicated):

 

Spoiler

Item #1 - $53.50

Item #3 - $108.50 (and is eligible for a certain item/brand 5x multiplier)

* There is also a 5x all purchase multiplier and you are platinum so you get 1.25x

Total Spent - $162

Base Points Earned - 162

Platinum .25x Earned - 41 (162 * .25 = 40.5, and rounding up)

5x All Purchases Earned - 648 (it ends up being 4x because you don't count the base points)

5x Item/Brand Earned - 434

Total Points Earned - 1285

Spoiler

Please add product id numbers and sku numbers so people can find items on ulta.  

Just to clarify, there is an item number that Ulta lists on the website, right under the picture of the item.

 

The product id is the number given to the item in the URL.  So Ulta's site follows this formula of having the url and then the very last part of the url is "productId=xlsImpprod" followed by an 8 digit number.  If you use that "productId" number you can get to the page of any item on ulta. 

It's not a search, but the direct url to the page. 

Click on any product, and then view the url in the address bar.  It will look like this: ulta's website (not using the actual domain because BT admins don't like that) /prep-prime-fix?productId=xlsImpprod15921204  Replace the 8 digit product id of the item you want to see with the id of the product you're looking for.

 

My very unofficial Ulta point multiplier to approximate percent discount chart:

(This is a number where I use the multiplier to divide by 2000 to see how many dollars I would have to spend in order to redeem a $125 reward.  E.g. 2000 points divided by 1 point multiplier means I have to spend $2000 to get the $125 reward.  Adding how much I had to spend ($2000) + the reward ($125), and then using the reward ($125) to divide the total purchase ($2125), I get a discount of approximately 6% based on the total purchase.  Note: the total purchase is based on the concept that you are spending just enough to reach the next $125 reward and combines the reward value with how much money you had to spend to get that reward.

Re: Ulta GWPs

Thanks for the responses @jeansx3 and @dd0214! I see someone else already posted a photo of the in-store coupon, but that's good to know for next time.

Re: Ulta GWPs

Silly me. As I sent the link to @quetzalina, I actually clicked on the link for the first time and saw that it's a real travel size that let's you screw the lid on and off, whereas the one I have just pops on and off (hence nothing to pull product off of the brush with). So this should be a much better sample than the one I have!

Re: Ulta GWPs

It always helps to have more info! In case someone was going to make a purchase just for this. And yesterday I was trying a new full-size mascara, and felt it had this problem, and thought about this post!

Re: Ulta GWPs

Thanks for the link! Updated the spreadsheet, sorry it took so long, got sidelined!

Re: Ulta GWPs

Thanks for posting this! PMing you now

 

 

Re: Ulta GWPs

I got a 5x points multiplier email for tarte at ulta. Be sure to activate if making any tarte purchases!

Re: Ulta GWPs

Hi guys! Would anyone happen to have an Ulta eyeshadow GWP coupon that they're not using? I, unfortuantely, didn't get that email and would love to use it if someone isn't going to. 

Re: Ulta GWPs

@GuavaLove I have one that I'm not using - would you like me to PM you the code?

Re: Ulta GWPs

Yes please! Would you be able to PM me the actual coupon (with the barcode on it) cuz I usually go in store for my purchases. Thank you so much!

Re: Ulta GWPs

I'm trying to send you the coupon but I'm only able to paste the top part of it (without the bar code) in a PM. Would you like the code, instead?

Re: Ulta GWPs

Sure!

Re: Ulta GWPs

actually, check your PMs - I may have been able to send the whole coupon 🙂

Re: Ulta GWPs

Just wondering, 

 

how many people actually get their ulta orders on the date/before it's expected to deliver? 

 

Ulta is driving me nuts because my stuff always arrives multiple business days AFTER the expected delivery date. Im not sure if it's because of where I live? I don't live in the middle of no where...

Re: Ulta GWPs

For me, Ulta orders actually arrive faster than Sephora's Flash Shipping because I live maybe five hours from their distribution center. So, I get true two day shipping from Ulta while Sephora usually takes three days (sometimes a week if I order perfume). 

Re: Ulta GWPs

@pinyo I live in Miami, and I have this is issue very frequently. I usually get the shipped notification email, but it really sent shipped until 3-4 days after that. It will only say "billing information received" meaning all that has happened is a label was created. It really frustrating that I don't get my orders until around 2 weeks later.

Re: Ulta GWPs

No issues like that, @pinyo. I had one issue where it got put on the wrong truck for delivery to a different city, but then it got redirected correctly for a one day late delivery.

 

Since this happens all the time for you, maybe ask your delivery person first about the possible routing issues, then ask the delivery company about the problem and possible solutions.

Re: Ulta GWPs

THanks for the advice @Anonymous @kromance. I'm definitely going to look into it because it's very inconvenient and happens on 90% of my orders. 

 

My most recent order said it would be delivered Wednesday, then the day of, changed to Friday, then on Friday, changed to tomorrow.

 

 

Re: Ulta GWPs

My order arrived the day it said it would. I have never had any delivery delays with Ulta so far. I have ordered from ulta while living in Chicago and didn't come across any delivery/shipping issues either. Now I am in Atlanta and its the same consistency! Thank God!!!! I think the worst shipping that I have personally encountered is from Colourpop cosmetics. It takes forever to get those packages. @pinyo

Re: Ulta GWPs

Was that last gift bag a fluke? Or did it really sell out that fast?

Re: Ulta GWPs

i think it was a dud! now to impatiently wait for Wednesday...

Re: Ulta GWPs

Has anyone gotten the Ulta 12 piece gwp? I would love to hear your opinions on it. How's the eye shadow palette and face duo? Thanks in advance!
