Let's keep this thread on topic!
Ulta points refresher (because yes, it is that complicated):
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
Links are not allowed. In lieu of links, please read this:
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.

Out of curiosity, has anyone been getting the free product with any purchase offers, but specifically the ones that require a unique code? There have been nine so far this year, & I've received none of them.
@NatureGirlSD No, I didn't, did you? I am 0 for 11 now this year 😞
@ohheyitscindyk Whoa, I think that's worth writing them about with screenshots of every offer you've missed! I haven't checked to see how many I've received since August, but I've had at least 2 this year.
@NatureGirlSD I think I'll do that, thanks 🙂 I wouldn't complain if I had even just gotten one this year, you know? At least I'm not the only one. Hopefully they can give me an explanation.
@BrwnSugaG You should also get in touch with Ulta! At the least, it might help them change the way they distribute them.
@NatureGirlSD - you know, i said that and then the next day i got one in an email. and then i forgot to use it!
@ohheyitscindyk Nope, I don’t think I’ve received any this year. I’m platinum, although I’m not sure whether that affects the likelihood of receiving these.
@ohheyitscindyk I've only gotten a few. But, I've gotten 2-3 from being Diamond.
@ohheyitscindyk It's interesting that you mentioned this, b/c I was thinking the same thing. I would use the free product coupons with any purchase routinely, but it's been the longest time since I received one. I saw the Pureology hair mask and NYX mascara posted on this thread, but I didn't personally receive them. Just when I started doing more shopping at Ulta, it seems like things have tapered off. IDK if it's a coincidence or not.
@greeneyedgirl107 I think you're right; I've noticed the same for me.
@ohheyitscindyk I also have not received any offers for a free item with a unique code. I only received an offer once for an Ulta hand wash but I never redeemed it because I forgot to use it. Another BIC member posted a code for an Ulta Lip Oil which I redeemed.
BTW I received an email from Ulta congratulating me on becoming a Diamond member but they are currently OOS on welcoming gifts.
I received the email offer for the St Tropez Bronzing Mousse. Surprisingly I did not receive the offer for the 9 piece skin care GWP.
@Loretta55 I was also surprised that the cleanser GWP wasn't in the email, but I did receive an Ulta app notification for it mid-morning.
I haven't gotten any this year either; looking back through the calendar, I believe the last one I got was an Ulta foundation last August. They've been very skimpy with handing those out lately (and it seems even the ones that don't require a coupon have been much more rare this year too). 😞
@RGbrown I think the last one I got was in September. I wonder if they're targeting people who don't shop at Ulta often or what. I'm tempted to make an account for my mom to see what happens.
If you make an account for her, be sure to use it from time to time...just a small purchase here and there. I set up a couple of dummy accounts at one point but never purchased anything; they got generic emails with no offers for a couple of months, then dropped off the mailing list altogether. I'd bet with a little spending, they would have gotten the "we miss you" 15off50's along with some of the unique q offers from time to time. 😀
@RGbrown Ooh good point, thanks for the tip. Speaking of which, I didn't get one of those We Miss You coupons & I hadn't shopped at Ulta in a while. I guess they know that eventually I'll come back lol.
