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.

@bratknits  😮 $100 off what!?

[bratknits]

$100 off $100. Essentially $100 gift card in coupon form. I'm a little amazed the women in line didn't strangle him for getting the big one. 

[treestar86]

wow...my relatives are coming down also, I was trying to get them to go but since there are no girls, I didn't think they would, but now...

[itscarin]

@bratknits @After you thank him, can you strangle him for the rest of us?!  🤣🤣🤣. Each store has a $100 card and there are other denominations. I know there’s a $10, and I’ve heard there would be a $20 and $50 as well, but o think 90% of the people are going to get $5. 

[bratknits]

The woman at checkout told him that there was only 1 $100 coupon. My jaw hit the floor when the got here and handed me the other half with the $100 off services on it. I booked highlights for tomorrow morning first thing so sis and I can check out tomorrow's deals. For THAT I'll drive the half hour.

[bratknits]

And tah-dah highlights on ulta with the coupon. Hubby grabbed a quick photo for me before the snow started. They were having giveaways again in the store today, was the same as yesterday. 

[Loretta55]

Very pretty @bratknits!

[treestar86]

@itscarin  probably the $40 "gwp"

[treestar86]

what!?  but what about that "cashier" that said they'd "DEFINITELY be worth getting" (which I was kinda suspicious of...how do we know they're a cashier? lol)  now I think that they must have just been trying to mess w/ppl, or they don't even work there. this is very misleading.

[bookwyrmm]

I was planning on going since my Ulta is only 7 mins away and my daughter needs a Wet Brush, but now I'm not sure.

[bookwyrmm]

Well, I got the $5 off, but since what I needed to buy was $7, it was definitely worth it. also got a nice perfume sample.

[treestar86]

mine too!  which is why I was going to go...lol.  but then I thought, since they have the same thing tomorrow, maybe I should see what it is first.

[itscarin]

@bookwyrmm If it’s Easy for you to get there then I don’t think it’s a bad deal. My closest ulta is 6 miles away and a 20 min drive each way, so 40 mins rt. I’m sick af right now but I was still going to go because fomo. 

I think it’d have to be a 5 min walk for me to get out of bed for. A $5 coupon is just not that tempting. 

[RGbrown]

New gwp; pick one of six perfume minis

All pimprod unless otherwise marked:

Burberry 2012024

Lancome 2012011

Moschino 2012023

JLo 2010282

Kenneth Cole 2012010

Versace xlsImpprod6481526

There's a new brand up as well: Brookstone!

[alexalicious]

I managed to snag the fragrance mini, even after my fragrance total dropped so long as my cart was over $35, so it might be worth playing around with. Also I'm not sure why Samsara was so discounted, I'm guessing it's been discontinued or this is old packaging. I'll probably be using on my faux floral arrangements anyway. Happy shopping everyone! Please post pics of your giftbag goodies if you are so lucky as to snag those this morning 😊 Ulta is opening an hour early and I'm so curious about these goodies for the first 100 customers.

[alexalicious]

lol @RGbrown that figures! I was so tired I hadn't read that right and ironically it was being fussy about staying my cart. I miss the good ol days of stacks and glitches and deluxe freebies for days.

[RGbrown]

@alexalicious 

The fragrance mini is with any purchase, not just fragrance 😊

I'm going tomorrow to check it out! Will post deets (and I hope it isn't a bust)!

[amylynnez]

Any idea what will be offered during the weekend sale? (16-17)  

Since it’s apparently an in store only event, I’m trying to figure out if they will release sales information before the sale begins?  

Interested, but not enough to drive two hours without even knowing what their sales will be. 

[ohheyitscindyk]

@amylynnez I think the only thing that's been announced so far is 30% off Kylie Cosmetics.

[Buootiful]

Here are my 2  Ulta  hauls for the week. . The sampler pack was 10 fragrances, eh. Surprisingly, the $30 gwp had better stuff that I can use than the $35 gwp stocking. There were only 6 packets(pur, too cool, smashbox primer, derma e , EL ceramide capsules and bedhead) while the rest were mini/deluxe sizes. No sweet spot labs but a deluxe size of the Caviar cream.

The MAC gift is pretty cool and worth $30 or more if bought individually at the MAC store. The Milani bag is very big, cant wait to test out the highlighter brush 🙂

Stocking StufferMAC and sampler

[Luvstravel]

@Buootiful, Great purchases. I really think the $30 GWP was great also. Please get back to me on how you like the Bliss pads.
