Please do NOT post requests for the spreadsheet in this thread. Please post requests for the Ulta GWP google spread sheet in this thread: http://community.sephora.com/t5/Off-Topic/Ulta-GWP-Google-Spreadsheet-Request-Thread/m-p/2753063#M11...

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 |

And emails are rolling out
Diamond gift
A couple other brands specific GWPs
Updated list for the body acne deal
And the email claims this is an Early Access item, but it doesn't have the usual Perk symbol
Cashback options for today:
RMN 8%
Mr Rebates 5%
TCB 4%
Rakuten 3%
@RGbrown theres also rebatesme, which is 3%, which I've been using if its the same as rakuten, as you get paid 30 days after purchase, and can cash out as soon as you have $10 in cash back, instead of having to wait every 3 months, like rakuten. 🤓
It's definitely important to find a CB vendor that's reliable and has terms you like. I rarely use Rakuten anymore (unless I happen to be shopping on a 10%+ day) as their usual 3% for Ulta isn't competitive, and Mr R and RMN generally have much higher rates. Mr R takes about 3 months to change a transaction from pending to available, but you can request a payout any time after that instead of having to wait (min $10). RMN pends charges for about 6 weeks before releasing them, and again, you can request payout whenever you want it after that. Personally, I'm ok with a longer wait for more money back in my wallet, but I get that some folks are willing to trade a few points for speed 🙂
@RGbrown exactly, and I've already cashed out w/them once, w/my signup bonus, so I know theyre reliable, even if their English is a little iffy sometimes. 😅 there was a $15 bonus for sephora when I signed up. and yeah, unless there's 10% at ulta, rakuten isnt that great. Idk why sephora never seems to be above 3% either, but thats why I've been using rebatesme mostly now, so I can cash out sooner. the only annoying thing is having to clear your cart before you click the link to shop. 😒
I havent used any other CB site besides them and rakuten tho, so I'll have to look into the others and see if they have good bonuses. 😏🤗
Perk Day!
MULTIPLIER
GWPs
Item numbers and contents of the $150 bag are in the spoiler
EARLY ACCESS
DEALS
See @ohheyitscindyk's post below! 😘
Good
Deal glitches!
Platinum/Diamond deals on Murad, bareMinerals, and body care glitch the skincare gwp if they qualify for it, reducing the threshold needed. They also glitch the $150 bag.
BM skincare counts for both the skincare and makeup gwps (but doesn't glitch the $30 threshold for makeup gift, unfortunately).
AND...the makeup gwp glitches the $150 bag, so all you need is $120 for it 😄
ETA: as of 1030am central, the makeup gwp doesn't count as $30 of the big bag anymore. But, so far at least, the perk sales are still glitching out the $150 needed, so it's still possible to get the $150 bag for under $150 if you want Murad/bareMinerals/lorac/body acne stuff
Perks Day has been confirmed for tomorrow 🙂
One new brand tonight: Spectrum Brushes!
...only one item, and it's not actually in stock yet, but it seems like I've heard good things about this brand, so I'm hoping more items show up soon
Drunk Elephant is live!
10% off BOPIS orders, now through the 16th
Holiday gift sets are starting to flood in as well, so be sure to check out the new releases page. I've heard rumblings of shortages and delays in all sorts of industries, so if there's something you will kick yourself for missing, it might not be a bad idea to jump on it sooner rather than later.
Unfortunately the INSPIRE20 code has expired. Congratulations to those who were able to take advantage of the offer.
New gwp at $65, and an $85 step up
Item 2588946 and 2588947
Ah yesss, Ulta got the Hourglass holiday palettes this year! They didn't last year, so I'm happy to see it...this might finally be the year I grab one in a points haul 🤞
I am super mad at myself ATM. I had the Universal palette and the new Tarte eyeshadow palette in my cart. I hemmed and hawed for too long (about 7 hours) and both palettes are OOS. Congrats to anyone that picked the Hourglass up I hope it's super pretty. Ugh I'm so mad at myself I had made up a cart that was $128 and was going to cash in points to pay for it but my dumb brain took over with the reasoning that I didn't need another eyeshadow or blush palette. That's the last time I stop to think about a makeup purchase 😅 JK.
