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.

yupp! i have all that stuff going too! pretty amazing! thanks for your input 🙂

[RGbrown]

That depends, really. Typically with no other gifts available, I'd say wait til Wednesday if you can. 

I just got notification that an item I want came back in stock today, so I'll likely place an order for it this afternoon and grab the Skinfix coconut spray as a freebie because I wouldn't mind checking it out...I'd rather make sure I get my item today while it's in stock then wait for what might turn out to be a so-so beauty break... but in most cases, beauty break is the time to order just to get a few freebies ☺️

[BrwnSugaG]

that's kinda what i was thinking but i don't wanna be greedy! but of course it would suck to place a large order today and miss out on something cool tomorrow. Thank you! 

[shimmerbait]

[BrwnSugaG]

is this specific to your email? i don't see it on the site 😕

[BrwnSugaG]

Thank you! @shimmer bait was kind enough to message me about it too. 🙂

[RGbrown]

@BrwnSugaG

You have to add this item to your cart; product ID 16631049. It'll turn free once you have at least $25 in your cart. ☺️

I just read an article stating that Sephora has bought out Ulta and that all of the Ulta stores will be closing soon.  I didn't believe it at first, but the article actually looks super legit.  If I can I will post it here, I'm on my phone currently.  Has anyone else heard this?? My heart is broken I hope it's not true.  The article I saw was posted today.

Phew! 🙂

[itscarin]

Thanks for googling this.  It's so important to be critical about everything, especially in this day and age when anyone can post anything and trick other people into thinking it's true.  This isn't just for makeup -- it applies to everything in life.  Very important when we live in an imperfect world.  I don't want to get too off topic but let's just say @NYTimesComm recently shot someone down who was spreading malicious lies.

[CaityLaine]

Thanks @Glitternoodle

sorry for posting here, this was my first thought of where I should go.  I totally could've googled it, don't know why I didn't think of that.  I was just so shocked I think.  I'm so glad to hear it's fake though.  One of my friends tagged me in the article and it was just posted today and looked so legit lol.  

Thank you you for replying  

[shimmerbait]

@CaityLaine the story has been making rounds since springtime.. it isn't true 🙂

[shimmerbait]

@CaityLaine  don't worry! I think the story was pushed hard today, my coworker mentioned it too!

[CaityLaine]

@shimmerbait

thank you!  I don't know why I didn't think to google it first.  This board was the first place I went after reading the article.  I hadn't heard this rumor until now.  One of my friends tagged me in an article written today....it looked so legit too I swear.  thanks for clearing it up.  I wasn't trying to spread fake news I think I just legit panicked lol

[RGbrown]

Ulta is *such* a tease!  

 I was so excited when I saw this email title...but alas, it was a cc offer 👎

[Fernleaf]

That sucks, @RGbrown! When it's too good to be true... ='[

[ohheyitscindyk]

@RGbrown Ughh that's the worst!

[faziix3]

Got a free ulta foundation offer in my email today so be on the lookout! In-store and online code is unique. 

[RGbrown]

3x points for Platinum folks or 2x for everyone else, good thru the 19th!

Lots of new brand specific gwp's. I don't really see much to go out of your way for, though I'm sorta pining for the Tarte fragrance mini. 😋

[Anonymous]

New Freebie!

Prod number is 16511244

Not a unique code.

[ClassicallyFab]

Awesome!
