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.

really?  that seems weird...is there a thread about that?  bc I think that would be worth discussing so people can compare what offers they get... there seemed to be more offers b4...

thanks...darn, guess I missed it. 😕

@treestar86 

While this thread is titled "ulta gwp's", it's for all things Ulta. There's not a separate thread for multipliers.

Not getting multipliers may very well be tied to your email issues, sadly. 

Future tip for the site too: use the @ to tag someone if you are trying to hold a convo/get a response. That way the person you tag will get a notification.  🙂

[treestar86]

ah, ok.  didn't know how to do that. 😉 @RGbrown 

that's weird...I wonder if it's like discrimination or something, for not buying much lateley? lol.  that's why I thought it would be helpful to compare what other people get.. I'm also wondering how other people get these coupons and things, if emails were an issue for others too...

[RGbrown]

@treestar86 

Most multipliers are targeted. No one knows exactly how Ulta chooses who gets what, but a big part of the equation seems to be purchase history. Perhaps adding things to your favorites list helps, maybe they measure time spent on the site or what products you are browsing, etc. It's all a guessing game on our end. Folks are free to discuss which multipliers they did or didn't get here (and frequently do).

Getting glitched off the email list seems to affect someone's multipliers and coupons as well. Folks that don't get emails generally don't get them, sadly. Just keep at Ulta as best you can to try and get it fixed.

[treestar86]

@RGbrown  hmmm.  I add a lot to my cart...you'd think that would help!?!? lol. I just think that's BS, if that's what they're doing - after spending alllll that money to become platinum, and then diamond - you'd think you'd get the good offers, and be able to take a break from shopping at least...lol.  well I'm definitely not going to be buying much or be diamond again if they don't give me any good offers...that just seems counter-intuitive.  but thanks, I'll see what they say.  that's why I wanted to compare, to see if it was just me.

[RGbrown]

@treestar86 

Good luck getting it fixed 😊

[treestar86]

my account won't even show any bonus offers :'(  and I thought the 4x pts was good til tomorrow?

I'm having a hard time keeping things straight in my head anymore, so I'll apologize in advance in case this is a repeat. I stumbled across Yuni being live while looking for something else, and I really don't remember posting it, so I hope this is new info 😋

[PrettyPaint]

Thanks for doing this @RGbrown. I didn’t realize that they didn’t post them in order, so I would have never seen these otherwise! 

[RGbrown]

@PrettyPaint 

I swear, Ulta's new arrivals page is the bane of my existence lately. Sometimes new stuff is at the top, but mostly it somehow gets buried way back 🤔

[RGbrown]

(editing a post with pics on mobile is a bit of a pain, so I'll add my ETA as a new reply instead lol)

I got determined and went through the entire new arrivals page. The Good Stuff sounds vaguely familiar and might be a repeat from me (sorry if it is), but I'm 99.9% certain I haven't seen or posted the other brands before. Thank you, Ulta, for making it so dang difficult to stay on top of new releases 🙄

[donnainca]

Thanks for posting! The Yuni branded things look interesting

Really hope the Diamond perks are better this time around. This year has been really meh when it comes to Platinum/Diamond day each month. I didn't even buy anything during the 4X point offer. All my money has been going to Sephora recently, but I'm eagerly awaiting some of the "coming soon" items that Cindy has found and also the hair event.

[treestar86]

I'm diamond and haven't even been getting their emails for like over a month...wth?
