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.

That makes me think there is a drop down list or something, @alexasteph 🤣 I feel for them, I can’t imagine how slammed they must be right now. Honesty is always best, and yes, we do understand!

[alexasteph]

@eshoe I’m pretty sure there is a drop down list and they probably just scroll through all the deliveries left and click whatever as fast as they can. Amazon always shows how/where it was delivered and I’ve had random things pop up for that too. Like one time it said it was handed to a resident but also put a picture of it on my doorstep on the final tracking. They have a lot to get through each day and just have to cross the T’s and dot the I’s with each delivery so probably barely pay attention to that sort of stuff. 

[eshoe]

The admin stuff always bogs down the process, doesn’t it @alexasteph 😕 They must be feeling so overwhelmed. I have a little stand with a basket filled with water and snacks for delivery drivers. Not everyone grabs one, but the ones who do are so appreciative. I doubt they have any time for a real break.

[Bekafox]

@eshoe that is so sweet of you! I’m totally going to start doing this. Thank you! 

[eshoe]

I got the idea from others, @Bekafox, so I am just passing it along☺️

@RGbrown @Two full sized lipsticks for a $50 buy in is pretty nice!

[RGbrown]

Mystery Gift 1

These were supposed to be six pieces, yes? 🤔  I thought I had mastered Ulta math by now, but apparently its trickier than I realized 😂

 

[eshoe]

Mystery Gift 2

@RGbrown @itscarin bonus points for Ulta’s color coordination here. The mask was folded in half and I thought it was a shampoo/conditioner sample. I was pretty excited to discover that it is indeed a mask, woohoo!

I bought the slap you recommended, RGbrown, looking forward to trying that out!

eta bummer about the 5 pieces😕

[Luvstravel]

@itscarin , I received the same as @eshoe except I got a Clinique eyeliner instead of the Hey Honey serum/primer. Pretty nice Mystery Gift!

[eshoe]

@Luvstravel if the eyeliner is black, I received that in my last Mystery bag. I also received the Lancôme mask in that same bag, but it looks like it will be a nice one and I have been putting off using the first one because that’s just what I tend to do with the nicer ones…put them off for a special occasion until they are expired. Now I can use it!

The value on this was pretty good, too. I will use everything, and that is most important. Nice pick!

[itscarin]

@eshoe @Sweet mask!  And no snails were harmed in the making of it.  😂

[eshoe]

Ha ha @itscarin, true! 

[itscarin]

@RGbrown @Is the 6th gift the cap?  They love to take caps off gifts to pad them and make them look fuller than they are in promos. Lol. Thanks for sharing. 

[RGbrown]

@itscarin 

I was actually wondering if they are moving gwps to the points system of math. Ya know how when you add two multipliers together, you have to subtract a base point? I stacked with another gwp, the Tarte beauty break, so I wonder if that's how I lost a "base item"? 🤣🤣🤣

[Ispend2much6]

@RGbrown  That's a really nice gift!

Mystery Gift #2

[itscarin]

@ljgorham @Thanks for sharing!

@RGbrown, looks like the mystery is who received your 6th product! 🤪 Hopefully Ulta makes it up to you.
