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

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.

[RGbrown]

New GWP!

Item 2596674

 

[RGbrown]

Spring Haul is up, now through the 16th!

Sadly, the $35 gwp went oos 😖

And we have an app exclusive deal as well

 

[RGbrown]

New GWP! It's nice to see a lower threshold bag again; valid through the 10th (or while they last)

Item 2596528

New brand: REM Beauty (available for browsing now, available to purchase on the 17th)

 

[greeneyedgirl107]

My $35 GWP.  I didn't look closely enough - this was a great bag for the buy-in!

What I got with my $35:

[ArmyChick84]

I received it in the mail today and for a $35 GWP, I am impressed. 

[greeneyedgirl107]

@RGbrown Thanks for posting!  I didn't get my Ulta email today, so wouldn't have known about this!  I just placed my order.

I was searching for things to buy...was shocked to see that CeraVe PM was $18.99 at Ulta, and only $12.99 at Target.  I thought the difference was only a couple dollars.  Needless to say, I didn't buy that.  Plus, I've been thinking about switching to the Target knock-off anyway.  But still...

[mwg1]

I’ve needed a new bottle of Cetaphil so I’ve been keeping track of prices of it at Target, CVS, and Ulta and CVS won thanks to coupons. Full price it’s $14.99 but I got it for $5.50 plus tax. 

[greeneyedgirl107]

@mwg1 Great deal!

[RGbrown]

@greeneyedgirl107 

It wasn't even in today's email, at least not mine, so that wouldn't have helped anyways 😋

Yeah, Ulta seems to use MSRP instead of competing on price like so many other places, but it can be offset with sales, points, and gwps. Spring Haul (probably) starts tomorrow, which is typically sales on drugstore stuff like CeraVe, so there may be a nice deal coming up between a possible sale plus this gift and the points!

[greeneyedgirl107]

@RGbrown You totally called it on the Spring Haul!  And I agree with you about the sales, points and GWP which is why I usually try to get as much as I can from Ulta.  Still, I was shocked about that one particular product.  Oh well.

If you go in store to spend your points but the item isn't available in store, could the store order it for you from online? Given that there's a limit for redemptions online, I'm wondering if this is a way to circumvent the limit. Thanks!

[iwantitfree]

What is the limit for points redemption online?

[shimmerbait]

@iwantitfree  4,000 points for online 

[shimmerbait]

@wwTraveler  I know in the past, ulta offered “store to door” but not sure if it’s still offered. If it is, stores can order for you for home delivery but to my knowledge, the same point limit applies in that situation. the item would have to be in stock in store to avoid the limit

please someone correct me if I am wrong, cause I’d love to be wrong on this one

[Indy701]

I’ve had the same experience where someone in the store will order it for me.  

[mwg1]

I got my order with the new faves gwp. The swaps were a Covergirl mini mascara for the Murad serum, the Better Not Younger sample is a shampoo not a mask, and the Origins is a Ginzing gel moisturizer instead of a serum, all of which I’m ok with. I got all the things I really wanted and the bag is really cute.
