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.
Multiplier | 1 | 1.25 | 1.5 | 2 | 2.25 | 2.5 | 3 | 3.25 | 3.5 | 4 | 4.25 | 4.5 | 5 | 7.25 | 7.5 | 8 | 8.25 | 8.5 | 9 | 9.25 | 9.5 | 10 | 10.25 | 10.5 |

So I have a question about platinum status...I am going to just barely make platinum this year, if I make it at all. If I end up needing to return something after Christmas and i go underneath the 450 spend requirement, will it take platinum status for next year away, assuming I return after the first of the year? Thanks in advance of anyone knows 😊
So it applies to whatever year it is...if you return it next year you'll still be platinum you'll have spend $450 + what you returned to re-qualify for the following year. That's what happened to me a couple years ago...this is assuming it still works like this 🙂
Thanks so much!!
Last tear when I returned something from the previous year I lost points for the current year. So instead of needing to spend $450 to reach platinum I needed to spend $500
Perfect, thanks so much for your response!

I have my eye on the bags, but the next bag we got last year started the day after the 20% off ended, aka Christmas Day. Hopefully that isn't the case this year. I will post details once the links update 🙂
These are the Full Spectrum products:
And while we're at it, some other upcoming products that may be of interest:
I do not know if you saw it but @ohheyitscindyk you have been credited for the Sephora Two For You code on USGWP.
@Luvstravel I’m holding on to my 20% coupon too😂
I received a shipping notice for today’s purchase. Maybe Ulta is starting to play catch-up. Everything is shipping together. I feel like this has not happened in awhile.
Did anyone else get a survey email from Ulta? I wonder if they are revamping the reward program?
@wwTraveler Mostly about holiday shopping in general, how much shopping you have done so far, if you had shopped at Ulta for gifts lately, if you are familiar with the terms like Cyber Fundays, Merry Monday, etc. Then the second part was about how important it is for you (when choosing retailers) to be offered free samples, reward/ point system and such. It was quite interesting!
I had to work this morning and checked around 9am and both bags sold out. I don’t even bother getting upset anymore, but man, Ulta should make these one per person. Some of you ordered 2-3 bags, so nothing left for us. Way to have the holiday spirit.
@dd0214 As a person who only got one bag, I don't think the comment you posted was very kind. I understand your disappointment and frustration at not being able to get a bag, but singling out people on this board as the reason you were unable to get a bag is unfair. This board represents a very small subsection of people who received the bag.
Participation in this thread means sharing deals and letting people do what they will with that information. I don't think it's any of our places to judge each other on what we do with that information (unless you are actively trying to monetize said information).
There are plenty of other GWP bags that will come along. There is no need to be resentful or accusatory. As a goodwill gesture, I'm happy to send you my bag once it arrives if you want to pm me a mailing address. I hope you have a nice day!
Booo.. in the same boat as many of you. Had trial this morning so didn't have time to really check all the deals until 9ish and all GWPs OOS. Mostly bummed I missed out on the sweet Clinique trick and the fragrance one too, which would have led me to get the beauty bag. 😥
That being said, let's remember this all for fun and even though I'm disappointed, I totally get why people would make 2 separate orders and get 2 bags - to get the Diamond blush and the 20% off. Getting 3 bags may be a liiiiiittle greedy, but hey.. I'VE done it before. 😅 This is probably karma!! Personally, I think there should be a max of 2 per person, to be fair. 😊
Anyways, I love this community and how friendly and helpful everyone is! We're all here to get the best deal, after all, and sharing so others can enjoy too!! I SO appreciate everyone who posts the tricks and glitches!! Next Plat Perk Day, I'm gonna make sure to set my alarm AND check this and other deal pages for tricks and hacks early! Like someone else said, there'll be more GWPs and bags and it's not like we're all lacking deluxe samples heehee..
Sorry for the rant.. thanks to all again for all you do!! 💖💖💖💖💖
Ulta does in fact have an order limit in place. Orders from one account, or going to the same address, are limited to 6 per day. My sis and I share a house, and if there's something we're both gaga over, we have to coordinate to make sure we both get what we want 😋. Even though we have separate accounts, the order limit is still six between us since we share an address.
Any attempt to place more than 6 orders will be met with an error that says something along the lines of "payment cannot be processed", and it clears up after about a day.
