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.

These are the instructions Ulta is giving everyone on Twitter regarding the expired coupon.

[Anonymous]

Just called CS. The wait was less than a minute and the CS representative just emailed me a new code to use immediately. I would definitely try calling if you haven't used the code yet and had trouble on Sat.

[sonnydee]

I placed my order while waiting 30 min to talk to a csr. She gave me the option for either wait until it ships then I can get reimbursed my 20% or shell send me a egiftcard right then. I opted for the gift card just in case I would forget. But I waited 30 min.....😧

[gingerleigh]

I looked into using my coupon in store today, I thought maybe that would be easier, and the managers claimed they had heard nothing about the coupon being extended, and said that communication from corporate is "really good" so they'd definitely have heard about it. So whatever, I'm just going to hang onto my points for now.

[NatureGirlSD]

@gingerleigh I love how they threw in the bit about corporate. It would have been awesome if you'd tweeted Ulta in-store & waited for a response to help improve communication. 😛

[gingerleigh]

I'm too afraid the online CS would apply 20% off the balance left after using my points -- likely to be about 25 - 30 dollars -- whatever would get me just over $125 after a working 20% off coupon -- and I just don't want to go there because that would truly be too much trouble

[lippieaddict19]

@gingerleigh I would highly recommend calling them tonight to get a new code if you really want what's in your cart. I had the same worry as you (sometimes points make things more complicated than needed), but I contacted them about not being able to use my code before it expired and they just sent a new one that expires tonight. No hassle of waiting for a refund. Now my concern is if I should wait until after 12 CST to see if there are any new multipliers/GWPs or if I shouldn't chance it in case the code they gave me will expire right at 12 CST (it's one of the longer 14 digit ones).

[gingerleigh]

Thank you so much for the advice, I wonder if they are still open, hmm...cutting it really close here too.

I might try, or I might hold off until the May hair event and see if they have one of those non-prestige 20% off coupons that works on hair tools generally. Or wait til the next 20% off prestige coupon in June (if the schedule stays the same).

@lippieaddict19

[NatureGirlSD]

Not quite ideal, but it's just messy considering all the sale items that are no longer on sale and the Nars bonus points ending that night. Hopefully all the bonus points are calculated based on the initial purchase price.

[Anonymous]

I would love a 20% coupon if anyone has one that works because mine said expired even though Ulta said they would honor it.

[RGbrown]

@Anonymous

Contact CS for a new code. My sis complained to them last night via email that she was having trouble with the site, and they just sent her a new one. I figured they'd just extend the expiration date on existing codes, but I guess this was deemed a better way for them to handle it for whatever reason.

[Christinaco]

I actually did forward them my 20% off email and let them know it came up as expired before I saw you had to email them your order number and wait on a refund, so maybe they'll send me a new one too. I kind of hope they don't respond so I won't buy anything 😂

[Christinaco]

I guess you have to place your order, email CS and they'll refund...nah, too much trouble and I literally need nothing. 

[Christinaco]

I just went to use my code and it says it's expired?! I thought they were honoring them thru Monday? 

[NatureGirlSD]

@Christinaco Def contact CS via phone or email. I've only had to get in contact with them a few times, but each time they've been as helpful as Sephora CS. Good luck!

[Maria88]

I hate to be that guy but does anyone have a 20% they won’t be using? I didn’t see they had the new Becca foundation (same formula and added colors) and I’d love to purchase with the coupon. I had already given mine away 😫

[NatureGirlSD]

@Maria88 Eek! I'm sure someone will come through, especially with some getting more than one use out of them.

[itscarin]

Ulta ils honoring the coupon through Monday 🍾

[gingerleigh]

New multiplier, 2x/3x/4x points on all purchases 4/22/18-5/5/18

[mwg1]

Well crap. I made my order no problem earlier today, but it would have been nice to have this on top of that. 

[Harobedb]

For the first time ever, my 20 percent coupon worked without a hassle. I had also clicked on the point multiplier, and I knew it couldn't be true: I didn't get the multiplied points (around 1:30 am eastern time is when I placed my order.) So much for that! Pffft!
