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

@ZombieMetroAnt Ahh yes they do expire, fingers crossed yours haven't yet!

Re: Ulta GWPs

ugh...of course they do Smiley Indifferent curses...

Image result for curses gif 

Thanks @ohheyitscindyk! Better rush home and double check...

Re: Ulta GWPs

@ZombieMetroAnt 

Even if it did expire, still give it try at your Ulta. I didn't know they expired either. Mine was only a couple of days expired but the Ulta rep redeemed it for me anyway!

Re: Ulta GWPs

Thanks for the suggestion @mganeshaly !  I'm totes gonna try Heart  Smiley Wink

Re: Ulta GWPs

A couple more examples of the items in the last round of samplers. There was some huge variation in them!

IMG_20191002_162553940.jpg

 

The top row is the first one. Only six items, but one is a 12 pod NARS lip sampler 😍 I generally hate pods, but I'll be testing out at least a couple of these soon! The other 10 items were in my other sampler, and I was pleasantly surprised to see two deluxe items in it. And of course, as always, what would any sampler be without Smashbox and Porefessional? Thankfully the second had both to make up for the fact that the first one had neither 🤣

Re: Ulta GWPs

that girl's always goin' somewhere...lol.

Re: Ulta GWPs

Wow!  I got three little crappy foils!  

Re: Ulta GWPs

nice! mine was smashbox primer and porefessional (of course...) and more foils -not a single deluxe sample or lip sampler. Even the foundation samples were concealer sized cards. Pretty disappointing but it's good to know some people got some good ones!!

Lol @RGbrown I'm slightly disappointed now when I don't s...

Lol @RGbrown I'm slightly disappointed now when I don't see that Smashbox primer in a freebie set 🤣🤣 I got my sampler yesterday, same as the bottom one you posted, pleasantly surprised, especially with the neck cream deluxe sample.

Re: Ulta GWPs

Re: Ulta GWPs

Thanks for posting, @RGbrown!  I actually like the brow GWP; almost wish I had an Ulta haul to place, lol.

@RGbrown, Thanks for posting!

@RGbrown, Thanks for posting!

Re: Ulta GWPs

Thank you for posting this @RGbrown. This only confirms that I have way too many hair products. I have been using my jumbo sized Devacurl products since 1St quarter 2018 and feel that every time I think I am making progress using them up, I feel that they are just as full as ever. 

The only hair product that I am making progress getting thru is the Wakemaker. I use a full sized tube every other month.

Re: Ulta GWPs

Thanks for the sneak peek @RGbrown!! 

Re: Ulta GWPs

Ughhhhh that picture for the Kenra shampoos just confirms my worst fears - they are reformulating all of their shampoos. I got the "new and improved" formula in their volumizer line and it makes my hair feel like a greasy mess. I guess it's time to drive around like a mad woman and pick up bottles of the old formula while I can. I hate it when companies mess with formulations that have been out for years and people are buying your products.

Re: Ulta GWPs

@niki172 

Uuuugh, I hate it when that happens! I went through the same a few years ago, and I scoured the city for as many old bottles as I could find.

 

I combat it now by keeping 4-5 different shampoos and conditioners in my shower and being loyal to nothing 😂😂😂

Re: Ulta GWPs

@RGbrown I wish I could have 4-5 brands in rotation. I have a really hard time finding shampoo that works with my hair. Before using Kenra I used Tressemma. When they changed formulas I went to every drug and grocery store buying up bottles. I wound up with 32 bottles, but at least I was good for a while 😂.

Re: Ulta GWPs

@niki172 

Start cracking open some samples...you might be surprised! That's what I did when I started running low on my beloved Nexxus, and I've been surprised that more works for me than I would have thought possible. I still have half a bottle or so of both the Nexxus shampoo and conditioner in my shower as a fall back, but haven't touched them in a while.

 

I'm considering going steady with Wella Fusionplex now...it's miles above anything else I've tried in the last couple of years. I really want to finish all the other stuff I have open first though...and I'm also a little scared of the heartbreak any future reformulation may bring, so I guess I'll be keeping my options open for now 😋

Re: Ulta GWPs

Thanks for the sneak peek, @RGbrown .  Now if only they'd put the Drybar buttercup dryer on sale, haha.

Re: Ulta GWPs

Have any of our lovely Ulta sleuths heard anything about a Fall Gorgeous Hair Event? According to the spreadsheet, the event happened September 30 to October 20 in 2018.
