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.

@luvgloss13  5X is still a great multiplier though. If it's something you've had your eye on, you're not on a low-buy. and you can work in it to your collection, it's still worth getting with 5X imo. The extra 5X of course would have been awesome, but just one is pretty darn good too! 

[luvgloss13]

TY  @alexasteph  I will wait. it is a nice deal. But the double points made me want it. Which means I need to back away. LOL. 😉

[Aaliaa]

More power to you for stepping away! @luvgloss13

[alexasteph]

@luvgloss13 Oh I understand, trust me! You might be able to pick it up with a 20% off while redeeming points later. That's what I do when I'm picking up things I've been on the fence about for a long time. 

[luvgloss13]

Yes TY. I am hoping for one at the end of the month?  I would also love a nice gift too. Hehe 

[luvgloss13]

I want in on the deal! LOL 😉

Does anyone like subculture ?

 I have swatched it , but never used it. I can usually make shadows work if they are hard. Does anyone love?  🙂

[RGbrown]

@luvgloss13

Check your multipliers before doing anything; my second one is gone, so it's just 5x now instead of a super stack. 

5x is still nice, just not quite as nice as it was lol.

(I havent tried subculture so I can't speak to it, sorry)

[luvgloss13]

Ty hun ! @RGbrown I am so glad I checked , the points just went down. 😞  

Not worth it. I will wait for some 10 point days. 🙂

[Maria88]

On the ABH multiplier: when you are checking out did it have the extra points already calculated? Or was it after you had actually processed you purchase that the 9.25 showed up? Because right now for me (before hitting submit) it just has enough points to merit one 5X.

[Ispend2much6]

@Maria88  The points showed up as I was checking out, at the usual place where it displays the points you earned with your order.

I just put a Glow palette in my cart, went to checkout, and right above the "place order" button, it told me I would earn 470 points for the order (the palette is $40.00.)  So, it looks like it's still working.

Did you activate both ABH 5x multipliers?  I hope I don't offend you by asking, that's the only reason I can think of that would explain why you're not getting the extra points.

[Maria88]

Yea I have both active, no offense taken. =). I singed in/out and now it seems to be working. That was weird because in my first session both bonus offers were showing. Weird. Thanks @Ispend2much6 

[Ispend2much6]

I could cry.  I was so excited about the "deal," I forgot to use my points for my order.  My $300 order...

[tsavorite]

@Ispend2much6,

Get on the phone and call Ulta now.

Tell them that you want to use your points, or just cancel the order.

[Ispend2much6]

Am on now. The rep is really nice; she put in cancellation, and also thinks my points are listed wrong (she thinks I should have more.)  Hope so- thanks!  

[Ispend2much6]

Woohoo!  Got quite a few points added to my account that should have been there all along!

[Ispend2much6]

Ladies, now is an excellent time to purchase ABH products, if you get my drift.  I don't want to say more and jinx it. 😉

[gonerogue]

@Ispend2much6 Thanks for the heads up 😉 I was able to get 600 points for a relatively small purchase!

[Ispend2much6]

@gonerogue  Thanks to all of the ladies' help here!  I wouldn't have thought of it myself.  But, you're welcome for the reminder. 🙂

[shimmerbait]

Sooo it's stacking on top of a points redemption too.. 

[shimmerbait]

Between NYX and ABH, this worked out well!  Now hopefully it sticks!

[ZombieMetroAnt]

Ok, @shimmerbait - I'm going in!

I think I can hit Diamond in one blow! LOL
