IKEA Family is a membership program, like grocery store memberships. The only real feature of the program was their 5% discount. But now, they are getting rid of it to focus on “New Lower Price offers”. I’m not holding my breath that their prices are going to come down anytime soon.

IKEA Family is worthless now. They do offer “select delivery options” with no explanation on what this means.

    Hey, that’s unfair. Here in Germany we don’t get 5% discount with IKEA family. Just discount on a few select (changing) products and free coffee.

          There is no free Ikea coffee in Québec or Ontario.

          The member card here gives access to some discounts (not a flat discount, but discounts on whatever thing they decided to put on sale) and an extended return window.

      Same thing in Canada, I guess they’ll introduce the same model to the US.

      That’s how it originally was in the US. I had it for years and it was absolutely useless, I used to complain about what’s the point of even having it if the only benefit was ONE return without a receipt per calendar year. You’re telling me you want to track all my purchases, but you can’t actually track all my purchases? Give me a break.

      Then a few years ago they added free coffee, so it became worth it again. The 5% off thing is new enough I remember being surprised when I learned it.
