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.

[RGbrown]

And a Surprise Sampler (not marked as a Perk), item 2611832, over 2600 items starting at $2.99

 

[Buootiful]

Probably not gonna buy but here's my inspo shopping cart to get the skincare and makeup gwp🥰

 

[civ2ru]

@RGbrown Thank you for posting, especially a few deals not found on the main Diamond & Platinum Love List landing page. I bet that 40% off nail care sale, coupled with a nail GWP, does not interest you in the least… ☺️

[RGbrown]

@civ2ru 

Meanwhile, I didn't think to check multipliers apparently 🤦‍♀️

I was excited to see a nail deal listed, but the selection of stuff isn't super interesting to me, and I'm not a huge fan of the Essie Gel Couture, so sadly, it's a bit of a bust (which is fine, I have too much polish as it is 😅)

[civ2ru]

@RGbrown You? Too much? Nah.

[RGbrown]

Beauty Break, item 2610363

 

[civ2ru]

Whaddaya know, they did end up doing the 5x switcheroo like I had guessed/hoped… 🙂

Here is also the current app-exclusive sale.

Also, 44 Lancôme items are 30% off (makeup):

And Jane Iredale brand is 20% off (coincidentally, also 44 items):

Member Love: 3/4/5x for fragrance, today only

 

[Loretta55]

I noticed that in today’s email towards the bottom was a special in store offer. Purchase a pack of two $25.00 gift cards and you receive a bonus $10.00 gift card while supplies last. I am waiting for the Cashstar offer.

[civ2ru]

@Loretta55 Yep! I actually posted about it last Sunday.

[Loretta55]

Sorry that I missed your post @civ2ru.

[civ2ru]

@Loretta55 No worries. Also, as @greeneyedgirl107 reported in a comment, that $10 reward is valid 5/15 through mid-July, in case that matters to you.

Is anyone else having difficulty with Ulta's site on their desktop?  I've been having issues for days.

[WinglessOne]

@greeneyedgirl107  Ulta's been redesigning their site for at least a month. For a while, I couldn't even log into my account because the "sign in" link kept quickly disappearing from the main nav of all Ulta pages. 🤦‍♀️ I complained to them about it (hopefully I'm not the only one who did) and about a week later, I noticed it was fixed. So if you're having site issues, try using Ulta's site feedback link to report bugs. Their dev team (whether in-house or contractor) might not know of all current issues—and considering the way Ulta seems to do IT/design-related things, that wouldn't surprise me. 

Some pages are still in the old site design, like all my account pages. That's fun because those pages are missing the persistent top nav, including the cart link. 😂 On a positive note, I notice I don't get randomly logged out nearly as often as I used to. And I kinda like the recent updates to the cart page(s). Kinda. I also like how they changed the method of filtering product results; the old way always drove me nuts from a usability perspective. (Scrolling through the old filter boxes was an unexpected challenge via certain browsers.) I'm still getting used to the new overall navigation scheme, though. 

That reminds me that you might wanna try clearing all your Ulta-related cookies if you haven't yet, and if your browser lets you delete site-specific cookie. (Chrome does.) The cookie dance doesn't always fix issues, but it's worth trying. 

[greeneyedgirl107]

@WinglessOne thanks so much for taking the time to type all this!!!  I cleared my cookies on my desktop but the problem persists.  I contacted CS and was informed by Ulta that they are unaware of any site issues!  I wish I could find that email and copy and paste it here. I'll have to look more closely to find that "site feedback link" you mentioned.   I'm being pulled in so many directions recently it's hard to keep up.  Bookmarked your response. 

[WinglessOne]

@greeneyedgirl107  Heh, I'm not surprised Ulta CS doesn't know what's happening with the redesign, especially if CS and/or design/dev/IT are contracted out. 

On the homepage, look at the far right edge of the screen and you should see a small black "Feedback" box. (If the sign in pane slides open, close that; it covers up the feedback box.) That black box is a link to where you can submit website issues. 

If you don't see the little black box, look down in the site footer > “Get Help” column of links > “Feedback” link (showing as last link in that column for me). 

[greeneyedgirl107]

@WinglessOne this is excellent info!  I'm bookmarking this for when I have more time to let them know in more detail what's going on.  It's driving me crazy. 

[SportyGirly125]

@greeneyedgirl107 @Not me 

[civ2ru]

It’s that prestige coupon time again! Check your emails, title may be “Ooo, $10 off? 😉👏 All right here!”

P.S. Since the member offer last Sunday was “5x new and exclusive” instead of “5x fragrance” like last year, do we think Ulta might do a switcheroo and drop 5x fragrance multiplier THIS Sunday? I sure hope so.

[Maria88]

Is this a unique or generic code?
