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):
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
Links are not allowed. In lieu of links, please read this:
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.
Multiplier | 1 | 1.25 | 1.5 | 2 | 2.25 | 2.5 | 3 | 3.25 | 3.5 | 4 | 4.25 | 4.5 | 5 | 7.25 | 7.5 | 8 | 8.25 | 8.5 | 9 | 9.25 | 9.5 | 10 | 10.25 | 10.5 |

What is the "this" in question?
That said, the most recent Platinum Perks I can think of were the Benefit bag set and Estee Lauder set last week, and those were online only IIRC. Folks here are good about listing which ones Ulta designates as Platinum Perks. I think you should be fine with any of the current active freebies.
Some of the basic patterns of Ulta q's:
12 digit, all numbers (like it Cosmetics and Clinique samples below): in-store, generic q's, anyone can use, and codes are not unique.
19-20 digit, usually starts with P, mix of letters and numbers for the rest: in-store, unique code. (the free Ulta hand soap coupon has a code like this, which is why no one has posted it here)
10-11 digits, usually starts with 3, mix of letters and numbers for the rest: online, unique code.
There are other online codes that spell a word or phrase related to the discount or promo; these may be more or less than 11 digits. Examples would be sonagasparian and madeyewlook from recent GWP bag promos, or NYMLOVESULTA (recent coupon for $1 off any Not Your Mother's hair care). These are generic and can be used by anyone (and usually multiple times, though Ulta can and has restricted some codes to where they only work once per account).
Anyone have a spare 20% coupon? Thanks in advance.
I won't be using mine, I'll pm it to you 🙂
I'm not going to use my Clinique eye cream coupon so you're welcome to PM me if you want it!
EDIT: It's been claimed! Thanks.
It Cosmetics- Bye Bye Pores Pressed Deluxe Freebie!
Product ID: 14661075
In Store Coupon:
Thanks so so much!! I'm so glad I checked this thread before I made the purchase!! Got the Clinique eye cream, Hand soap and this powder for free!! YAY!
Wow, so it's starting to look like unique codes to get the freebies online is the new normal. How sad 😞
Eta: duh, I see now it's not a unique code. I didn't get this email and just assumed it was. Yay! It's about time!
I got 5x points on it Cosmetics; if anyone is interested in their stuff, be sure to check your account and activate that if you got it too.
Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this question but I got sent my birthday gift coupon to redeem. Do I have to purchase something or can I just walk in and redeem it? This is my first time getting the birthday coupon (even though I've been a member for years now) so I'm kind of new to this.
yes! you can walk in and redeem it in the store they have the gift behind the counter 🙂
My apologies if this is the wrong place to post this or if my request is annoying, but if anyone is willing to spare their Ulta 20% off coupon, I would really appreciate if I could have it! I'm hoping to save more money by spending it at Ulta since I'm planning on going on a no-buy after this month. Thank you!
Does anyone think that there will be a big GWP bag sometime before the 20% coupon expires?
I think I have my basket all set, just holding out for any chance of more freebies lol.
@StephaniLynn I went through my last years Ulta emails during the 20% off and found that there was a $25 buy in veriety GWP bag / white background with red lips, smashbox logo which I ordered the 4th day of the 20% off (Sunday). It was still available the following Wednesday. Then on Tuesday there was a full sized Exuviance glycolic $50 buy in GWP available while supplies lasted (which it did for several days). Then on Wednesday there was a one day only nice 4 price Ahava $40 buy GWP coinciding with the 4 hour Redline hair care set beauty break on the same day. On that Wednesday you could get all 4 GWPs offerings (veriety bag, exuviance, Ahava and Redkin) and the 20% off.
There was a really nice $75 buy in GWP variety bag released a few days after the 20% off ended.
It's hard to say exactly what will happen although I would imagine Ulta may have a surprise extra to try to steal the show from Sephora.
Thank you for all the info @PaletteAddict99 Ill probably order Wednesday 😊
Ur welcome! @StephaniLynn me too. I sure hope the stuff we want to order doesn't sell out by then 😫
Same! This also gives me time to edit my basket. I keep adding and removing things! I have a 5X Points on UD and those Vice bullets are so tempting. I only have a couple... at only $17 a pop it's so easy to add another one... and another one... and another one... Who know who doesn't need any more lipstick though? This girl.
I think you're very smart to wait! 🙂 @StephaniLynn
I have been anticipating that we'll hopefully get a big GWP before the coupon runs out. Even if it's just the normal Wednesday beauty break though, it's still smart to wait.
I went ahead and cashed in my 2,000 points and used my 20% only because I was worried about some of the stuff I really wanted going OOS. 😞
I wanted to make sure I got what I really wanted so I went ahead and jumped.
That's the same thing I'm waiting for 😂 aside from Wednesday's beauty break - I'm not too certain there will be another
IM not a platinum member yet 😩 So id anyone will not be using their 20% code please share it to me i missed the 21 days of beauty because we were in vacation 😩
Not to be greedy at all and I know several people have already asked, but if there is by chance anyone that is not going to use their 20% off coupon and would not mind pming it to me, I would so love and appreciate it.
I have already used mine, but have found some other things I wouldn't mind getting. Thank you 🙂
I won't be using a couple of codes I have
Free Full Size Ulta Hand Soap: Claimed
Free Clinique All About Eyes: Claimed
enjoy!
@phantompenguinx Thanks for sharing!! I used the hand soap coupon.
