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 |

If anyone has an extra Nars targeted GWP or not using his/hers, may I please have it? 🙂
ETA: Oops, I should have clarified that I was looking for the coupon, rather than the actual product (otherwise I would have gone to the trades thread 🙂 ). Regardless, thank you for chiming in, @Madeline7 and @Er667799!
Its out of stock 😞
Try calling your loca ulta they may still have it 🙂 Good luck!
So I contacted CS about the Algenist promo being a foil packet instead of a DS vial, and they sent me a $10 gift card. This was my first time ordering from Ulta and I'm super impressed with their customer service 🙂
If anyone else has a Nars promo code they don't want to use, I'd love to use it! For some reason I don't get the promotion emails
@Madeline7 glad your call to CS worked out. I love Ulta. Got super tempted to apply for their credit card when I checked my mail this afternoon and got a flyer for it w 20% off upon approval.
Pm'ing you the Nars code. Enjoy!
Ulta NARS targeted GWP is really nice. I was surprised at how large it is for a freebie. I expected it to be the size of the Bite multi stick sample from Sephora. But it's much bigger. Here are a few pics next to a Fresh mini (too lazy to look for the bite mini lol!). Check out the circumference!
wow lucky! thats a decent size
@petitesweetmom thanks for posting this! I went out and got it after I saw your post. I was being lazy about picking it up 🙂 This is a very nice gift!!
ok I just noticed that Ulta's beauty steal for the PUR pressed foundation, that the anniversary edition is also on sale at $18 same as for the beauty steal one. I may not be explaining this properly, due to lack of sleep, but I found it by searching sale items from PUR. well here's a photo that is likely much more clear than my words here....
Yay! I love the anniversary packaging. I wonder if it is $18 only while the regular one is that price as the beauty steal today. It was previously on sale for $29.
if anyone isn't planning on using the nars gift, would you please send my way thanx!
Lots of questions about predictions on Q's and Beauty Breaks lately led me to add a new page to the spreadsheet (tab titled 2017 Promos). While it won't help with current questions about what happened when last year, I have started tracking all of this year's promos so that we can have a better idea in the future what may happen when, and if GWP's are getting better or worse or more/less frequent, etc. I will keep it up to date as much as I can; I'm a deal-hunter above everything else, so it helps me to see what's going on...maybe some of y'all will find it handy too. I only started shopping Ulta in Sept or so last year, so I can't compile a similar sheet for 2016, but if someone has the desire, feel free to add one!
There may be some 2017 promos that I missed/didn't know about (Ulta doesn't send me emails for every GWP etc, so I rely on lots of other sources for info, but I still seem to miss some stuff sometimes); feel free to update what I've got so far if you see anything missing. 🙂
thank you @RGbrown
absolutely excellent idea and thanks for taking the initiative!
Thank you so much for doing that. I don't even have the original link but have been doing a lot more shopping at Ulta. Could you please send me the link to this spreadsheet? Thank you.
Can you please send me the link to the spreadsheet as well?
Thanks!
Such a great idea! Kudos to your deal hunting 🙂
Oh wow! Great thinking @RGbrown. Thanks for taking the initiative...
If there is a beauty break today, does it mean there won't be one Wednesday?
I should probably know this but I'm rarely an Ulta shopper, TIA!
I can't swear 100%, but during the crazy before-xmas shopping season, Ulta added in an extra Beauty Break several weeks, and I'm pretty sure that the usual Wednesday BB also happened those weeks as well. I remember seeing one on Friday some time before Xmas and thinking "dang, it's better than whatever they had on Wed...wish I had known an extra BB was coming" lol. So, I would say there will probably be one on Wed too, but I wasn't shopping Ulta this time last year and haven't been tracking their deals long enough to know for sure.
