Save 15% on DoorDash & Ulta Gift Cards This Graduation Season

If you’ve been putting off buying graduation gifts — or just want to stretch your food delivery budget — Giftcards.com has a deal worth jumping on right now.

Through a limited-time promotion, you can grab 15% off DoorDash gift cards using promo code GRADDASH, and 15% off Ulta gift cards with code GRADULTA. There’s also a smaller Nordstrom offer — $5 off a $50+ gift card with code GRADNORD — but the DoorDash and Ulta discounts are the real headliners here.

Why This Deal Is Actually Good

Gift cards don’t usually go on sale. The whole model is built around people spending at face value, so a 15% discount is legitimately notable — especially on brands people use weekly. DoorDash isn’t a novelty brand; it’s what a lot of Southern families reach for on busy weeknights, late game days, or when the summer heat makes standing over a stove feel criminal.

For Ulta, 15% off is better than most of the sale events Ulta itself runs in-store. If you’ve got a daughter, a wife, or a grad who shops there regularly, a $50 Ulta gift card bought at $42.50 is a real win.

The Stacking Angle

Here’s where it gets smarter: there’s currently a PayPal offer running for 5% back on Giftcards.com purchases. If you check out through PayPal and that offer is activated on your account, you’re looking at roughly 20% total savings on these gift cards. That’s not a small number.

Who Should Buy These

DoorDash gift cards make the most sense if:

  • You’re buying a graduation gift for a college student moving out on their own
  • You use DoorDash weekly and want to pre-load some credit at a discount
  • You’re shopping for a busy parent who’d rather pay for convenience than cook every night

Ulta gift cards are a great fit if:

  • You’re gifting a teen or young adult grad who’s into beauty
  • You want a safe, universally appreciated gift that doesn’t require knowing someone’s taste in products
  • You regularly shop Ulta yourself and would be spending the money anyway

What to Watch For

The promo codes are framed around graduation season (GRADDASH, GRADULTA), which strongly suggests these won’t stick around long. There’s no hard expiration date published, but deals like this typically run a week or two at most. Don’t sit on it.

Also worth noting: gift card purchases on credit cards are sometimes treated as cash advances depending on your card issuer. Pay with a debit card or PayPal to avoid any surprise fees.

How to Grab It

Head to Giftcards.com [AFFILIATE:giftcards_com], add the DoorDash or Ulta gift card to your cart, and apply the appropriate promo code at checkout. Before you do, check if your PayPal account has the 5% back offer activated — if it does, use PayPal as your payment method to stack both discounts.

Fifteen percent off something you were going to buy anyway is the best kind of deal there is.
