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.

@ZombieMetroAnt haha about the smashbox primer. The seem to make their any in all my ulta orders. But the bag is so cute!! 😄

[NancieNano]

I don't know what it is lately but I am drawn to those poofs wherever I see them! I would've got that GWP just for the bag @ZombieMetroAnt

[trishavt]

@ZombieMetroAnt Ha! That's some great photoshop work you did there.

I have enough smashbox primer samples to keep a bonfire going for hours. Maybe I should bring them with me on my next camping trip. 

[pixiedust2]

OMG! Where's @NancieNano ?? That size of Smashbox is her dream come true 😄 @ZombieMetroAnt love that bag!

[NancieNano]

I would welcome that bottle with open arms @pixiedust2!

[KatieJiang]

@ZombieMetroAnt . That Smashbox photo had me rolling on the ground laughing!

Dang. I saw the calendar and was feeling proud thinking that I could skip the event since nothing really piqued my interest, but man, I'm such a sucker for those darn sample kits!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I went to my local Ulta today to get my birthday gift and it was still the Urban Decay Eyeshadow (Midnight Cowboy). They had a ton of them left and the cashier had no idea when it was going to change and/or what the next bday would be.

[gingerleigh]

Happy birthday! I hope the UD stays in stock for a few more days so I can get that instead of Porefessional. I have a ton of Porefessional, including an unopened full-size in a kit.

[Tamara76]

@willa25 Happy Birthday!  🙂

[niki172]

I got an email yesterday stating it's a deluxe size Porefessional, however it started that I would get extra gift due to being Platinum, but it did not state what it was - just to look out for the coupon to arrive closer to my birthday.

[willa25]

@niki172, I'm also Platinum but I have no idea what you're talking about it with the extra gift. I did get a code for a Julep nail polish but when I tried to use it online, it came back as invalid. Now that I'm reading your post, should I be calling to Ulta customer service tomorrow to inquire about this?

[Tamara76]

@niki172 In the past, the "extra gift" was a coupon - I don't remember if it had a specific dollar value or a one-time percentage off - please keep us posted on what you get - and Happy Birthday!

[niki172]

Thanks for your help @Tamara76! 

This is my first year so I have no clue what the extra gift is.

[willa25]

@niki172 & @Tamara76, the two gifts I got were a $10 GC and a UD eyeshadow and I am a platinum member. Is that what I should have gotten?

[Tamara76]

@willa25 The $10 GC sounds right!  I couldn't remember if it was $10 or like 25% off.

[dmay]

I also got the email about the birthday gift being a DS Porefessional. I appreciate that it's a free gift, but honestly my first reaction was

[NarNarNars]

baaahahahahah that's priceless! I 100% share that sentiment. 😉
