If you are Ulta Platinum member, take a look the 10x points event last year 2016 on 8/22! Select brands and products were 10x points rewards and anything else were 5x points rewards.
Here is a spreadsheet of the value of the points, you can also find it on the sidebar. If you buy $100 and are able to get 1000 points, then that’s $50 rewards! It’s like 50% off!
I can’t guarantee the Platinum 10 points Event will happen this year after the 20% off promo expires on 8/19, and I don’t know what products will offer 10x pts rewards, but it’s good to know that it happened last year at the end of August and previous years too!
Currently, 20% off + 3 pts rewards is pretty good too. You just have to calculate, compare and balance based on what you are going to buy.
If you buy $100 now => the saving is $20 + 300 pts($8) => $28
If Platinum member 1000 points event happens:
- buy $100 => 1000 pts => $50
- buy $100 => 500 pts => $17.5
