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.

@ohheyitscindyk no!!  well, the full sized perfumes DO count toward the blanket, but not 5x pts.  and the fragranced body kits don't count toward either.

[ohheyitscindyk]

@treestar86 How frustrating!

[treestar86]

@ohheyitscindyk totally!! 😩

[Loretta55]

My thought is that Ouai is known for their hair products @treestar86. Perhaps that could be the reason.

[treestar86]

@Loretta55  true, but the perfumed items are under 'fragrance', so it seems they should qualify.  not sure why no one at ulta can answer that lol.

[Loretta55]

@treestar86 , Ouai is a new to Ulta brand and they probably are still trying to figure out how to classify it. I do agree with you that they should honor the 5X points.

[treestar86]

@Loretta55  yes, it's weird...also bc I noticed that the perfume DOES count toward the blanket, but not 5x pts...so if it counts toward blanket then its obviously 'fragrance', so why no 5x pts.?? lol.  strange...

but I was more interested in the kits since theyre on sale, but...they dont apply to either.  le sigh. 😔

[Loretta55]

I do agree that it is weird @treestar86. If you do decide to purchase the fragrance set maybe you could get a point adjustment in the future.

[treestar86]

@Loretta55  yes, I got one yesterday.  its such a pain trying to get the points afterwards, they kept insisting I did get them, but that was for another item and the 250 extra pts. yesterday.  they FINALLY gave me them, but I moreso just wanted them to correct the issue so I can buy more of them, lol.

[Loretta55]

I understand @treestar86. I wish that I could wear fragrances again. My husband became allergic to most fragrances. I just feel shopped out.

[treestar86]

@Loretta55  that's a bummer!!  I love perfumes but don't really wear them much since they can give me a headache...I've been trying to buy 'cleaner' ones since they arent as offensive, but theyre usually so much more expensive. 😩

I understand being 'shopped out' lol.  I havent been shopping much due to funds, which is why I jump on any good bonus pt. or gwp offer (and they tend to be on perfume, so I guess thats why I have so many lol)

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all! 🎅🏻🎄

Does anyone have a best guess as to whether Ulta will repeat their 2019 offer of 450 bonus points with order? I have a cart waiting to go and need a little sweetener. 

[savvy4]

Thanks @civ2ru and @RGbrown, I may as well wait until tomorrow to see what shows up. You guys have me so spoilt with all the GWP, freebies and bonuses that I can’t bring myself to buy anything without a little something extra. 

Now if Ulta can just persuade Santa to deliver we’d all get everything in time for Christmas!

[RGbrown]

@savvy4 

Member Appreciation has moved to Sundays this year, where it fell on Fridays last year. There's a decent chance we'll have something tomorrow, though I dunno that it'll be the same exact offer.

[civ2ru]

Last year's 450 points with $75+ was on 12/20/19, which was a Friday. If 2020 followed the same schedule, it would have happened yesterday. Having said that, some promos have been happening off the beaten schedule, so there's really no telling... That's my best uneducated guess.

[Imightneedthis]

If anyone has an extra 20% off code, I would love to have it. Thank you!

[civ2ru]

@Imightneedthis Just sent you a PM. Enjoy your goodies!

[Imightneedthis]

@civ2ru Thank you so much for spreading the holiday joy! My shopping is complete thanks to you! Woohoo! Thank you again! Merry Christmas!🎄🎁
