Let's keep this thread on topic!
Ulta points refresher (because yes, it is that complicated):
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
Links are not allowed. In lieu of links, please read this:
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.

OUCH!!! Like the other poster said, last year, they creeped up from $125 to $150, but dang, now $175??!! For mainly repeat samples, it's getting easier to NOT make purchases there.....
@Cyncynn Great point! For $175 buy in, I'd rather be getting some la mer samples and other high end brands.
Product ID 17721047
Ho hum, silly rabbit tricks are made for kids.๐ถ๐ฝโโ๏ธ
When I got this email I literally thought they accidentally sent out an old email. Then I saw the $175 and was in complete shock ๐ !!!
Maybe for Cult, Barneys or Space NK type deluxe samples but not Ulta samples unless thereโs major stacking going on. Maybe they are testing the waters here. I sure hope itโs a flop for them so this doesnโt become the norm.
I mean if you're trading in some points on a big purchase anyway, this is a good stack with the lip set that's back in stock and some of the other nice brand GWP offers, but HOLY COW that's a heck of a buy-in. An easy pass for me, unfortunately.
$175? ๐ต
The jump from $125 to $150 last year was bad enough, but daaaaang, this is getting out of hand.
Hopefully we'll have a nice Platinum Perk day on the 4th instead.
The bag itself being used again isn't common...I've seen that once or twice before, but it hasn't been the norm. Items do repeat a good bit though; they'll show up in all different configurations, but if you see an item once, it'll typically surface again in another bag or gwp later, except maybe some of the full size non-drugstore stuff. Like in this one, I'm not sure I'd expect to see the Lorac mascara or the Buxom gloss pop up again.
The more I look at this one, I'm seeing stuff I want after all. Must.walk.away ๐
@RGbrown LOL Stay strong, unless you rilly rilly need $185 worth of stuff right now. ๐
Knowing similar bags are likely to show up again will be a help with whether to bite or not the next time one comes around, hopefully with a lower buy-in!
Love the items, but I have them all. Will be passing for the sake of my wallet๐
New multiplier!
Also, lots of nice brand-specific multi-piece gwp's went up for the holiday weekend, all with various end dates from the 26th through the 2nd. The lip sampler is still available as well!
I really wish Ulta would get the drybar "big crimpin" in stock. I want that! But I'm waiting for ulta to get it before I actually purchase it. D4mn loyalty program making me so loyal. Drybar is having a 20% off sale on their website, too. ๐
I have been waiting for a decent hair tools multiplier. Thanks to this 5X I basically received an additional $125.00 reward. I purchased the Dyson Dryer. I hope the hype is real. When I use the Bio Ionic 10X Dryer, it takes me between 10 - 15 minutes to dry my hair.
This order pushed me only $103.57 away from Diamond Level. I also added the 16 piece Beauty Bag, the lipsticks and Pureology Hair Mask.
@Loretta55 Let me know what you think! I'd shell out the money if I knew it was amazing, but I'm not willing to spend the money for something that may perform just as well as a $200 dryer.
@itscarin I have been curious about the Dyson Dyer also and I was waiting for a multiplier to try it. I will gladly post my thoughts once I try it. I have thick wavy shoulder length hair.
