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.

Im trying to use my $10 off birthday coupon and it's saying I haven't met a minimum. How we it's lot any of the excluded items super annoyed

[RGbrown]

@civ2ru 

Yeah, I just played with those $75 gifts an hour ago or so too, and nope, they won't go free. They were marked as one day on the front page yesterday, so I guess they ended at midnight, but why in the everloving fuuuuuuudge are they still up then? Surely it's not an intentional part of this new update to keep showing old gwps? I hope not. Meanwhile, I still had some of the Perk Day gwps in my cart, and while most were pulled as NLA, one of them was still sitting there with my other items as if it were available for purchase (not free, of course). 

I'm still at the "I'm not risking an order" stage of my relationship with Ulta at the moment. Which is fine, my wallet appreciates the breather lol. 

[civ2ru]

@RGbrown Funny thing is, that GWP worked in the morning and turned free fine. Should have placed the order then. Or shouldn’t I have? 😉

[RGbrown]

30+ re-released deals from this week sounds an awful lot like "whoops, our site is a trainwreck and our sales are way down because so few folks were able to order, please give us your money today, thanks" 

😬

When I click through, I get 136 items on the list, so if you missed it last week, there's a decent chance it came back today!

 

[civ2ru]

How did we miss these GWPs? Threshold is insane, but still… Item 2610243 and 2610244.

[RGbrown]

@civ2ru 

Egads. I checked at midnight and again around 2am before I went to bed, knowing that we had a gwp on this day last year and being mildly surprised there wasn't one for today. Sigh. Thanks for catching it!! 

[civ2ru]

@RGbrown Happy to help. Hey, it’s not your duty to catch every single one! Just, you know, 99.9% of them… 😂🤪😉

[RGbrown]

@civ2ru 

No pressure, eh? 😅

[civ2ru]

Ulta swears that website & app issues are fixed now. Are they? 🤔

 

[KateGreen]

I can't even log into my account. Says my account isn't found and I'm diamond 😞 

[Loretta55]

Call customer service @KateGreen. That is what worked for me.

[CattyT3]

I wasn't able to get through to customer service on the app chat feature or texting [just after 11am EST] - so waiting on the phone ended up taking so long that I couldn't cancel my order I wanted to delete in the 1 hour limit.....
Will see what happens & if I end up with 2 Fenty highlighters or not 😅

[RGbrown]

Scattered reports on Reddit say no 🤷‍♀️ Their systems were down in stores yesterday and I'm somewhat convinced that while this says "site and app", it was really prompted by the store outage being resolved. They're such a mess lately 😐

[RGbrown]

Member Love came early this week, good thru Monday 

 

[civ2ru]

@RGbrown A generous multiplier, not limited to BOPIS as listed in the mail catalog. Looks like somebody might be trying to compensate for all the recent site redesign mess… 🤔 “PLEASE give us another chance and try the site again!!!”

[greeneyedgirl107]

@RGbrown what might we expect for Labor Day sales or GWP?

[RGbrown]

@greeneyedgirl107 

🤷‍♀️ Lol

With 21 Days going on, Ulta hasn't really done much for Labor Day in the past. Last year there was a gwp on Saturday and a beauty break on Sunday, and a select brands multipliers on Monday that ran through the week. I haven't checked the sale page this week, maybe they've added a few items today, but I couldn't really say for sure. Next best chance for new sale items would be Sunday. 

[RGbrown]

The Dash to Beauty code has been released, 584841 for half off CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum thru tomorrow 

 

[RGbrown]

New gwp, choice of two at $60, 2616408 or 2616409

 

[greeneyedgirl107]

@RGbrown these both look good!

[civ2ru]

A new Dash to Beauty for those willing to brave the site/app! 🤪

P.S. Note that Ulta’s pricing on this product is overboard ($21.99). It is currently $14.90 at Amazon, or less if you subscribe.
