So how about some ways to save<\/a> even more money at a place known for its reasonable prices?<\/p>\n In this post, we\u2019ll share the latest Ikea hacks and money saving tips that you can use to save money shopping at Ikea -whether you shop in United States, Canada, U.K., Sweden or any other country or region.<\/p>\n Personally, I\u2019m not a big fan of store credit cards. They usually have high interest rates and make overspending on things that you wouldn\u2019t normally buy easier. That\u2019s why I usually don\u2019t recommend getting store credit cards. But if you\u2019re a frequent shopper, their credit card has a lot of good benefits.<\/p>\n The card offers several cash back opportunities, as well as other bonuses. Using a store credit card is very effective (as far as getting bigger rewards faster) on big item purchases like beds, mattresses<\/a>, TV stands, dining room sets, bedroom or living room sets, couches, sofas and similar big ticket items.<\/p>\n A lot of people also renovate their whole kitchens using Ikea products. So if you wanna save money on your Ikea kitchen renovation or upgrade project, their cards can get you a lot of cashback and rewards quickly.<\/p>\n IKEA is no different.<\/p>\n It\u2019s called IKEA Family.<\/p>\n Once you join you will get access to special discounts, a welcome reward, a free hot drink, a special gift on your birthday, and other special perks.<\/p>\n Also, if you have kids you get two free Kid\u2019s Meals with the purchase of an adult meal on Tuesdays.<\/p>\n Just go to this page on their website<\/a> and tell them you\u2019re moving, and they\u2019ll send you a $25 off coupon towards an in-store purchase of $250.<\/p>\n Join SavvyConnect Now<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n How neighborly is that!<\/p>\n Many of you are probably regular visitors to the popular rewards site Swagbucks.com<\/a> and others.<\/p>\n They\u2019re known for offering gift cards to a variety of places for answering surveys, watching videos, and so on.<\/p>\n But what if you\u2019re not looking for something from Amazon or Walmart, but IKEA?<\/p>\n Fear not, here\u2019s how you do it.<\/p>\n Instead of redeeming your points for a store gift card, opt instead for a PayPal prize.<\/p>\n Then go to the IKEA store or website and shop away!<\/p>\n This is actually a great way to basically get furniture for free<\/a> or come as close to it as possible.<\/p>\n There are websites where you can buy discounted IKEA gift cards.<\/p>\n They include GiftCardGranny<\/a>, CardBear<\/a>, and Raise<\/a>. At the time of writing this post, you can save an extra 9% by shopping with Raise.<\/p>\n Also be sure to check out eBay for coupons<\/a> or discounted gift cards. I have seen savings of up to 30%!<\/p>\n This is great! The company has sweepstakes where every single month at every location, a shopper wins a $100 gift card. You can participate in two ways:<\/p>\n It takes only a few seconds to get your entry for a chance to win. So you should do it every time you go to the store.<\/p>\n This may be a no brainer for most of us, but sometimes we just don\u2019t think about it. Using coupons has become so normal that sometimes we just forget about using them or think that the store we\u2019re shopping at doesn\u2019t have any.<\/p>\n The good news is that almost every single company offers coupons, including Ikea. You just have to know where to look.<\/p>\n Some of the best websites for finding coupons<\/a> include:<\/p>\n To find a coupon, visit each site and enter \u201cIKEA\u201d in the search bar and hit the search button. The site will show you all the available coupons and promo codes.<\/p>\n If you shop on Ikea.com a lot, use a cashback site to earn cashback for every dollar you spend on the site.<\/p>\n All you have to do is join a cashback site like Rakuten, then search for the store you want to shop from and click the link. Then do your shopping as you would normally. Rakuten will credit your account with cashback.<\/p>\n The percentage of cashback you get depends on the item and dollar amount you spend.<\/p>\n For example, currently (at the time of writing this post) you can get anywhere from 50 cents (on an items costing a few bucks) to $250 (on items costing $4k).<\/p>\n There are other sites that give you cashback<\/a> as well. So it may be worth checking them out to see which ones gets you more cashback.<\/p>\n Install the free Honey browser addon<\/a> to take the pain out of finding and trying dozens of coupons to finally find one that actually works.<\/p>\n Once you install the Honey app, all you have to do is hit \u201cfind coupons\u201d at the checkout. Honey will then automatically search and apply the best coupon that gets you the most savings. Remember that for the next time you are planning to shop on their website.<\/p>\n And yes, Honey works for other stores and furniture retailers as well, including Wayfair, Walmart, Target, Conforama and Macy\u2019s.<\/p>\n If you want more detail and tips for getting the most out of Honey coupon app, read this detailed review<\/a>.<\/p>\n How frustrating is it to buy something, only to find it at a cheaper price just a few weeks later?<\/p>\n Pretty frustrating, right?<\/p>\n But if you are a member of IKEA Family, you have access to the 90-Day Price Protection benefit.<\/p>\n Meaning if you buy something using your Family card, and the item goes on sale within 90 days of purchase, just bring in your receipt and they\u2019ll refund the difference.<\/p>\n How cool is that?<\/p>\n Like many retail outlets, IKEA will advertise specials and sales on their website and social media pages, as well as on the app.<\/p>\n Many of you likely took advantage of their Black Friday Offers<\/a>.<\/p>\n It pays (figuratively and literally) to bookmark these pages and keep any eye on them regularly.<\/p>\n There will likely be specials and sales closer to Christmas and around the new year.<\/p>\n The company has an event known as the \u201cIKEA Kitchen Event\u201d that happens a few times a year.<\/p>\n During this time, the company gives you store gift cards that you can use later on to shop for anything.<\/p>\n The amount varies based on how much you spend. Normally it goes like this:<\/p>\n So mark the date on your calendar so you don\u2019t miss it.<\/p>\n You can get more details and reminders by becoming an IKEA Family member.<\/p>\n The \u201cAs-Is\u201d section will be found by the checkout area.<\/p>\n This is where you will find items that have been returned or previously on display, and often marked as much as 50% off the original price.<\/p>\n The best time to check this section out is first thing Monday morning after people have made returns over the weekend.<\/p>\n As NBC News reported<\/a>, items may get a new and\/or lower price after an annual sale.<\/p>\n Be on the lookout for the yellow or red tags, that is usually the indicator of a great deal.<\/p>\n But act quickly, they may not be around for long!<\/p>\n Have you ever ordered or bought a product and found a piece either missing or broken?<\/p>\n Do you have to buy the replacement part?<\/p>\n With IKEA, maybe not.<\/p>\n You can email the company with your receipt information and a description and they can send you a replacement part in about a week.<\/p>\n More details can be found on their FAQ Page<\/a>.<\/p>\n Also, the store may have some spare parts lying around the store.<\/p>\n Either call your local store or drop in and ask an employee for help.<\/p>\n IKEA\u2019s bags are pretty big and durable, but may cost a little more than most reusable bags.<\/p>\n They start at $1.49<\/a> and go up from there.<\/p>\n The best idea is to bring any reusable bags you already have.<\/p>\n Do you have your eye on a dresser or table, but it won\u2019t fit in your vehicle?<\/p>\n Is renting a truck or van too much of a hassle?<\/p>\n Why not let the company bring your purchase to you!<\/p>\n IKEA offers a delivery<\/a> service for online and in-store purchases.<\/p>\n Compare their delivery prices before renting a truck.<\/p>\n Looking for a job and love IKEA?<\/p>\n See if they\u2019re hiring.<\/p>\n Employees save 15% on regular-priced items.<\/p>\n Amazon.com, as you probably already know, offers just about every product imaginable.<\/p>\n That includes IKEA products, many times at discounted prices of up to 50%!<\/p>\n Just type in \u201cIKEA\u201d in the search bar and check out the results<\/a>.<\/p>\n And if you have an Amazon Prime membership, be sure to take advantage of the free two-day shipping.<\/p>\n Stores (and online retailers) test out new products all the time. The older models have to give room to newer models. So to make room for new products, retailers have to get rid of older ones quickly. That\u2019s why almost every store has a \u201cclearance\u201d section. At Ikea, this is known as \u201cLast Chance\u201d.<\/p>\n It is always worth checking it out. You never know. The exact item you are looking for might be in that section. And you can save anywhere from 15% to up to 50% on \u201cLast Chance\u201d products.<\/p>\n In the stores, you can look for items with yellow tags. Those yellow tags indicate the lowest price the company will sell an item for. So grab it before they\u2019re all gone.<\/p>\n You may not need to get an IKEA card to save money on your purchases.<\/p>\n Do you already have a rewards card like a Discover or American Express Card?<\/p>\n Then use it to earn cash back on your purchases.<\/p>\n Also, does your rewards card let you redeem points for gift cards?<\/p>\n If so, do they offer IKEA gift cards?<\/p>\n If so, redeem your points at get one.<\/p>\n If not, use your points to redeem a VISA or MasterCard gift card, then use it at your local IKEA or online at ikea.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n In the coming weeks, people will be asking you what you want for Christmas (if they haven\u2019t already).<\/p>\n Have a product you really want, or want to check out the store and see what they have?<\/p>\n Then ask for an IKEA gift card.<\/p>\n Also, if you get any prepaid gift cards or cash for Christmas, take them to your local IKEA store or go to the website and pick out what you want.<\/p>\n Yes, the company actually offers daycare for shoppers. So if you like to take your kids shopping with you, take advantage of it.<\/p>\n You can leave the kids in the daycare section (usually located at the front of the store), known as the \u201cSmaland\u201d for up to 90 minutes.<\/p>\n As a member of the Ikea Family, you can get a free cup of coffee or tea in the restaurant.<\/p>\n As the old saying goes, time is money.<\/p>\n Most IKEA stores are big, and it\u2019s easy to get distracted by all the goodies or get lost trying to find what you came in looking for.<\/p>\n It\u2019s always a good idea to create a shopping list, and their website can help you do just that<\/a>.<\/p>\n Also, look at the store map to know where everything is and the easiest way to get there.<\/p>\n Another tip is to enter through the exit door.<\/p>\n
