I've also got the $0 to $3 search book-marked and it still works, if you want to be a geek for 30 seconds, here it is, it'll save you a step or two. 

http://www.sephora.com/search/search.jsp?keyword=%241&pl=0&ph=3

If you'd like to search for different $ value, just substitute the number at the end with your desired $ amount and it'll bracket the results specific to your input.  Example if you substitute 8 for the 3, it'll give you the range from $0 to $8 and other related results.  
Bookmarked!  So awesome, thanks.

Why can't i pick which one i want? I don't want that stupid Illuminator /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I hate Orgasm, I already have like 3 of the blushes... I don't want it anymore, please stop offering the same shade in everything Nars : (

EDITED: I know I can enter any code I want, but they only sent me ONE in the email, so I only knew of one until I checked the boards, and then it was too late for me to get what I wanted. Why don't they send all the codes in one email or all of us the same emails. :/

I think the VIB-R was a bit of a hair-brain concept, more hype then susbstance.  I certainly over-purchased last year to qualify for the Rouge.  Am glad I'll have it for the rest of 2014, but the revenue and profit that I gave them far exceeds the value that I got in return.

I'll no longer be in a rush to buy multiple sets or items to stock-up, am waaaay to stocked up and Sephora feels like a vacation fling...

You can use any of the other offer codes, you are not dedicated to using the one that was sent to you.  Of course inventory availability is a whole other issue...

I know that, but they sent me ONE code, and was only informed of ONE option. That is what bothers me. By the time I checked the forums I saw the other codes and it was too late for the lipstick that I wanted :/

Same here. Every email that I get from them still says VIB at the top. I would email CS, but the last time that I did they stopped sending me emails for a couple of weeks.

Woohoo got my order with the nirvana samples and they threw in a viva la juicy sample too! That's 4 perfume samples on a 4 dollar order. I'll take it.

I placed 4 orders over a 4 day period (mainly because I didn't read this thread first and kept finding about codes or new sample I wanted). Two were over the $25-$35 limit. Those order received no samples. One $2 order received the samples but not the ones I chose and my last $2 order was canceled for no reason. Sometimes I hate sephora. I know they were free samples but I was looking forward to the (whatever brand) Amber cologne. I want to get my husband a cologne for valentines during the 3x points deal. Plus 2 of my kids had surgery. On Tuesday and these orders were pick me ups for having to nurse them by myself (hubby had to work). When one is canceled and 6 samples are missing it takes some of the fun out of it.

Wow! @ohsailor and @tinkerbll695 ! It's already out of stock! I never even got notification about it! No email or anything. /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> Well that's not very good Rouge service.

i never got any email about the Rouge perks.....

I also don't get email regarding Rouge (or VIB) perks. I emailed them over and over but nothing changed. I'm thankful you guys post about them. Even if it's too late sometimes.

Yeah, I get it and I empathisize.  I got the Cartier fragrance VIB code and none of the others as well.  

I notice that if and when I do receive some of the promtional emails, they are usually 3 to 5 days behind the MUT, which means they are staggering the emails, which displeases me.

This VIB-R thing is so unevenly played and the specific release of codes to some and not other and the staggering of the emails so that some receive these codes nearly a week after that codes has been in play is totally back-firing.

It doesn't much make me feel special, just duped.

@Charity1217, isn't this like the 2nd or 3rd time that they didn't enclose the GWP for you?  I'm sorry that your kids are going through surgery and that you are having to man the ship yourself.  I hope that they recover well.  

I think Sephora's actions are kinda more like the eccentric ubber wealthy kid on the block handing out party invites and trick-or-treat candies, flippent and whatever the mood may be... then a business with appropriate accountability.  

It's not a consumer experience that I am getting happy points for, it's tarnished...

Sorry about the mindless renting, I'm not much liking it myself.  Am going to change my actions to not have to complain anymore.

Has anyone had a order that has been canceled for being out of stock when it's still in stock?  I am Rouge and made a $30 purchase last Friday, and a $28 purchase on Monday.  Then I saw the code for the Nirvana perfumes and placed another order on Monday for $2.  The following day when the glam glow eye mask was offered as a sample I placed another $2 order.  I just received a email saying that last order was canceled.  It said "We apologize, but your recent order #XXXXXXXX was cancelled due to one or more items being out of stock."  I went back to Sephora.com and re added everything I had before and everything was in stock.  I had just bought 2 of the Sephora shower caps and the samples (I didn't add the nirvana code this time).  Why would they cancel the order? I remember this happening when people were being banned but I thought it has stopped.  I wonder if Sephora is limiting the less than $XX amount purchases with free shipping by just canceling them with offering excuse or if it was just a quirk.  I went ahead and placed a $10 order because I really want to try the eye mask but I am worried about placing small orders again. 

This happened to me back in October. I made an order for around $35, when I checked the status of the order it said, "Sent to warehouse" for several days. Then it got cancelled because one of the items was out of stock. The item was not out if stock so I just reordered everything and it shipped right away. I thought it was odd.

Ugh that is so frustrating and lame. I swear sometimes they just throw stuff in boxes all willy jolly and hope for the best. I get that it's free but they shouldn't let you pick what you want if they're not going to send it!

For as much as I complain I really do like the product selection, promo codes and samples.

I guess part of me knows I have a drugstore foundation ($12) that rocks and yet I will constantly purchase $35 to $60 foundations, because of that I want extra service/perks. I know the markup on these products is 1000X over cost and so I want the products to really preform or to feel like I received value for the "upcharge".

AND if I spent well over $1000 at your store and YOU offer perks for that, I want the perks! Why do they offer different/varied perks??? In this age of social media people will find out and rather then feeling special your clients end up feeling duped. Oh how I love and hate you Sephora...

*also this is not the best code ever, but if anyone is interested in one of these masks it's w/$25 purchase

Here's a 10% off your purchase V436CB (one time use for VIB and up)

Aargh!  My Nirvana Black double-sized sample smashed all over the pavement today when I was trying to try it for the second time!  Sigh.  At least the garden department entrance of the St. John's Fred Meyer smells good.  It desperately needed that.  I've placed another order for some shower caps (which I keep meaning to order anyway since I want them for a trip at the end of March) using the code for the deluxe duo *and* added pick-three-free version as one of my order samples, so I hope I get them both.  I need to try fragrances at least five times on different days in different weather before I know whether I can safely buy it.  It's weird, but I have a problem with fragrances, weather, and headaches, which is why I have to try scents under different weather conditions (I already crossed White off my list for headache reasons, but I really get the feeling Black is a winner for me).  Here's hoping they all arrive and don't go *smash* before I get to thoroughly test this fragrance!

 

[lioness90]

I used the "NARSROUGE" promo code. I read online that the Illuminator is 1.0 oz. The full size Illluminator ($30) is 1.1 oz so the perk is almost full size.

That's smart! I am also super weird about fragrances and get headaches from them- so I understand that need.  I may have to start doing that though!  I figured out though what smell it is that gives me a headache, so all I have to do is smell it once to know whether or not it'll be safe.  Some of them though give me the small headaches- not like, full blown migraine, and I may try this method to figure that out!
