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.

@muddlepup

It would be nice, but considering Chanel fragrance is in-store only, and has been since it launched (which was well before the makeup...not certain exactly when Ulta picked that up, but it has been months, if not years), I don't foresee the makeup going online either any time soon. ☹️

Two new beauty bags are up, with a $75 purchase.

Details about what is in each bag are in the spoilers 🙂

I'm just wondering....if you get a GWP and place a multi-item order, but then you decide to return something from the order, and that would bring you under the $$$ benchmark that let you qualify for the order, do you have to return the GWP, too? TIA for any help. 🙂

[ohheyitscindyk]

@Harobedb The return policy states you get to keep the gift 🙂

[Harobedb]

@ohheyitscindykThanks! 🙂

I'm seriously trying to avoid this offer by sorting samples and barely used products into bags for donation, family, friends, and to list on Swapidu. My 2am mantra is- I need EltaMD day & eye creams with 20% off; I only want the superbig shiny GWP that would give me immense but temporary pleasure when I open it and result in a living room full of samples to sort in a few weeks. I neeeeed EltaMD... (All, my Swapidu is SD_NatureGirl. Find me if you're up for swaps!)

[KaitTheKatfish]

@NatureGirlSD there's a website where you can trade random things with people ??? Oh no, I can already feel myself getting sucked in

[NatureGirlSD]

@KaitTheKatfish Right??? I don't have listings since I haven't taken photos yet, so for now I've listed what I have under my 'Swap Notes'. The photos will likely include products fighting Godzilla or a stuffed hedgehog to make them more interesting.

[KaitTheKatfish]

@NatureGirlSD  😂😂😂

[PaletteAddict99]

Uggggggh 🙄

[RGbrown]

I spent so much time grousing about them that I forgot to check their site 😅😅😅

Thanks @ohheyitscindyk!!!

[ohheyitscindyk]

@RGbrown HAHA I was waiting for you to post & I was like, "Maybe she went to bed" 😄

[RGbrown]

@ohheyitscindyk Nah, no bed yet...just had a little paperwork I wanted to finish up before calling work done for the day, but didn't realize how late it had gotten. 

Hmmm, I'm seeing a few interesting things in each. Gonna have to debate...not quite sure either is enticing enough on its own, but throw in the 5x+3x and I might have to grab something. Not sure I can scrounge up $75 in wants after the 20% last week though 🤣

[ohheyitscindyk]

@RGbrown Same here, it'll be hard for me to make a $75 purchase right now. I do have a lot of the samples, but I am tempted, with the bonus points.

[RGbrown]

@ohheyitscindyk

Fun (and free) lip stuff gets me every time. I'm eyeing the Girl Boss bag just for those. Nevermind that I could buy both, full size, for less than $30 🤦

[ohheyitscindyk]

@RGbrown I always think like that, but then I eventually find a way to justify the purchase for the samples lol.

[RGbrown]

@ohheyitscindyk

I do too, and my wallet hates me for it 😄

[RGbrown]

So I just opened my email about the Origins Beauty Break and found a 5x multiplier for Origins mentioned, but it isn't on my list. Is it showing up for anyone?Valid through 4/28

And speaking of missing multipliers...has Ulta done away with the Anniversary 5x? My Ulta anniversary is in April, and for one week during the month last year, I had 5x everything as a bonus. That hasn't happened this year, and we're on the last full week of the month. I don't see it listed as a benefit on the rewards page (but TBH, I don't recall seeing it on there last year either...it was a surprise to me when I got it). Has anyone in Jan/Feb/Mar had an Anniversary multiplier this year?

[ohheyitscindyk]

I did some googling & it appears that Ulta will no longer be offering the 5x anniversary multiplier.. This apparently started on March 1st 😞

@RGbrown

[RGbrown]

@ohheyitscindyk

Well d@mn 😥

I guess those points are now being funnelled into the Diamond tier perks instead, so it makes sense, but I'm still sad that it's gone.

[lippieaddict19]

@RGbrown My understanding is that it is part of the 5X Natural brands that came out last week. Do you have that multiplier?
