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.

Is this deal dead?  Just came to the thread and I can't seem to find these products online.  Thanks!

[RGbrown]

@iwantitfree

Not fully dead, but many of the freebies are going OOS. Since the "cost" of the freebies was counting towards the $150 threshold for the bag, it's taking a bit more spending to get the bag for free now. It can still be had for well under $150 though.

The links to the remaining freebies are all on the spreadsheet. 🙂

[Nikkihas3girls]

@RGbrown You are my hero this morning!  Thank you so much for sharing your mad skills with us!!!  Sending much gratitude your way!!!

[Christinaco]

I got everything you did, except i went for the it cosmetics freebie. Idk why its working weird for some but i got everything you did with just the facemask! Thank you so much 😊! Ive never been more grateful for this group, yay!!!!!

[itscarin]

@RGbrownI almost spent my ebates cashback on a bottle of perfume since I'm running out of it, but even though it's 5x points I would still rather wait for a better deal.  (Like 5x points + 20% off or 10x points or 5x points on something I'm really excited about)  I ended up buying the sheet mask and paying for shipping.  Why not, right?  You are genius!  And also a very early riser!

[denn2626]

Lol still waiting on the same deal. 

[RGbrown]

@itscarin

Nope nope nope, not an early riser...more like a late-to-bed-er (really, rg?). I usually go to bed around 2am, but stayed up a bit later last night, futzing with this deal 😄

Nice willpower on holding out for a better deal! I'm a bit jealous of that...when I have a fave running low, I jump on the first deal instead of staying strong for the best deal. My fear of running out overrides my cheapness sometimes lol

[itscarin]

@RGbrownhow do you feel about repurchasing a perfume though?  There's so many out there and sure that last one was good but are you married to it?  I think a lot of us on these boards are looking for the next bigger, newer, better thing. 

[RGbrown]

@itscarin

Good point, but there is always a case for a signature scent. There aren't many perfumes I'd go out of my way (or pocket) for, but my current favorite above and beyond anything else is SJP Stash, and my stockpiling activities kicked into high gear a while ago...I have two of everything in my cabinet. 😂 I am definitely married to SJP 😍

Other than that, I have grabbed a few rollerballs or minis of scents I really like, but I typically get enough samples to last me a lifetime for anything else.

[phantompenguinx]

@RGbrownyou are the best!!! I was scared when I woke up and saw all these posts that ulta would have fixed it, but just placed my order for the charcoal mask and all the freebies!!! (i paid for shipping, which i really dont like doing, but figured $5.95 for all those samples is worth throwing ulta a bone xD)

[katkapivarci]

@RGbrown This is amazing!!! Thank you thank you thank you for posting this!!! Now i’ll have some nice gifts for my hubby for Valentines ❤️

[RIslander]

No longer works

[AnneMCC]

This is some serious cart magic going on here! Abacadabra!

[Alicehoopz]

Oh

My

Goodness

Well, I feel silly for cashing out 2000 points lol. Although I really did want La Vie Est Belle and got back 750 points so, still happy 😀

Y'all are just over here doing the Lord's work 😂

[Ispend2much6]

@RGbrown   David Beckham shouldn't charge so much for his sample products. 😉

[RGbrown]

@Ispend2much6

That $50 redken seems to be playing a bigger role. I had to get over $80 without Redken earlier, but now...$3...wow!

edit: weird, something changed since I was first playing...a cart that didn't have the bag as free earlier does now. Oh well, certainly not complaining 😄

[Ispend2much6]

2nd purchase; I spent $19.29 and the bag was free.

I paid for:

House 99 Neat Cut Shaving Cream- $16

Yes to Mens Charcoal Paper Mask- (thanks to @shimmerbait)- $3.29

Freebies:

[shimmerbait]

@Ispend2much6   Highway robbery!!

[lidovicky]

I’m very content with what I got 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[RGbrown]

@lidovicky

Very nice!

[lippieaddict19]

Really hope I don't end up regretting paying for shipping come morning when the actual email comes (and possibly some deals we didn't notice), but I think I did pretty well for only $22 after tax! Hopefully it ships 😄
