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 |

This just started happening to me as well. I tried to move something from my cart to my save for later list, and my cart disappeared. I tried clearing cookies, and I tried incognito, but no dice. I can see my cart until I sign in, and then it just vanishes.
The app is working fine for me (for now...), but I will throw a fit if I have to check out through it later today. I have a very specific routine and I hate deviating from it 👿
ETA: I think that wonky Armani gwp pouch above was causing me problems; the more I played with the app, the worse things got. I finally got rid of that glitchy beast, and suddenly everything was fine in both the app and on my desktop. I can't prove that was the culprit...but the timing of the fix kinda points to it.
I have a different weird thing happening. When I try to click on the 20% off in store coupon that Ulta sent out in that email Dec 1st -- the email @RGbrown brought to the attention of the thread -- it just goes to the Ulta home page. My email also included a code for the coupon to be used online, but all the pictures and words around the code in the email disappeared, it is now just a string of numbers and letters hanging out in a bunch of white space within the email. If I didn't know what an Ulta coupon code looked like, I would have to say, "It doesn't look like anything to me."
@gingerleigh My email was that way two days ago, but the ones I received today are back to normal.
I really don't like it when emails change after I receive them. @Ispend2much6 Imagine if snail mail letters did that! I get insecure feelings from glitchy software. It makes me not want to shop online with a retailer. Last night, I was moving things around in my Ulta cart, trying to deal with their phone app since the site was glitching -- and I saved a lot of things for later -- and they all disappeared, I had to go find them all over again.
Sephora's phone app is not any better, they really don't seem to be paying someone to keep up with it. Their website works better for the forum, but not much, and there have been times it has been worse, even really recent times (ongoing times?). As I'm sure everyone can agree.
@gingerleigh It gives me a weird feeling when I get an Ulta email for a Beauty Break, and then, after it's over, that same email has the offer crossed out with a banner, one that I didn't make! I'm locked out of my email account, this should be fun...
@iwantitfree @Feebee1115 I thought I was the only one who's having that problem. I think I better call CS.
I just called and they said they would just forward my account for review. Said there was no one I could actually talk to about a technical issue.
Very weird! If I use an incognito window and don't sign in, it shows the cart. As soon as I sign in, the page goes blank.
Help!
Perk Day tomorrow!
I really hope it is something that will tempt me. I haven't made orders on any of the Perk Days this year because I have reached Peak Stash and nothing on offer seemed like a must-have or must-try. And I won't be Diamond again next year (though I will be Platinum again). So that makes me feel like Diamond status was not worth it.
Sometimes I feel like I just can't bear any more little bottles or packets of stuff. I long to have one decent-sized product for every makeup and skincare need. I know I'm headed for trouble because as soon as I get holy grails, they will start getting discontinued, but I can't help wishing for a very small dependable stash.
I have been giving stuff away left and right, plus I have been using face products all over my body. This works out because a lot of it is too harsh for my face. Now at the end of the year, I can almost fit every product I own in my roll-top desk 😄
Edit: In and On my roll-top desk, lol
I agree @Lazybeautybeast and @alexalicious -- I'd love to see new gwp's and discounts at least 25% and up. I'm hoping for something nice tomorrow as a perk, and if so, I have a bunch of the Ordinary items in my cart that I might like to try, because the 20% coupon that @RGbrown told us all about the other day, does work on that brand at Ulta.
Here's my order. I hope those Ulta fragrances arent too strong. Has anyone had these? I really wanted the wintry wonders bag but it was oos before the Ulta c gwp came out 😔. Not bad for less than a dollar 😁.
The thing Im most excited is a non-beauty juice beauty prebiotix. Been tired of regular water since trying to drink less coke.
Thank you, I feel better about getting them (for free) 😁. Sounds like I will definitely need to take one to work 😃. @alexalicious
Someone posted this in reddit. Has anyone else heard of this? I just ordered one so a bit concerned that they are okay gifting them online if they really are pulling them from stores.
@yuline Thank you. I feel better knowing someone inspected them. Must have been just a few stores then.
