10+ Ways Ikea Money-Saving Deals

Ikea has amazing prices AND products. Here is how I save money at Ikea:

Here are the best ways to save!

The IKEA Family loyalty program is free and totally worth it. Every month, IKEA places a new section of products on sale at member-only prices.

Shop the clearance section:

I recently got the table above for only $71- a $50 savings! It was exactly what I was looking for. You’ll find returned, damaged, and previously displayed items marked as much as 50% or more off original prices. Shopping in this section is the absolute best way to score a deal at IKEA. You can also reserve “As-Is” items online. Once you reserve an item, IKEA will hold it for 48 hours for you to go in-store and buy the item. If you don’t claim the item within the 48-hour window, the item will go back up for sale. Your “As-Is” products may vary.

Birthday freebies:

If you’re an IKEA Family member and your profile and communication settings are up-to-date, you’ll get a $10 off coupon (in-store purchase) from IKEA via email the week before your birthday month. The coupon is good for the entire month of your birthday.

Join the Ikea Moving Program:

Join the IKEA New Mover program and receive a coupon (via email in 48–72 hours) for $25 off a $250 purchase.

90 Day Price Adjustment Program:

You’ll have up to 90 days to request a refund if an item you’ve purchased goes on sale.

The item must have been purchased with a free IKEA Family loyalty card to qualify for this price protection. To request a price adjustment you can chat with an IKEA team member online, or call IKEA customer service at (888) 888–4532. Both options are available 7 days a week from 8 a.m. to midnight ET.

Easy To Replace Missing Parts:

If you find there are missing parts in your order, IKEA will send you them for free. You’ll just need the spare part number (from the instructions) to make your request online.

Ikea Buy Back and Resell Program:

They’ll buy back “gently used” IKEA furniture by giving you store credit. How much you get in credit depends on the age of the furniture, the condition it’s in, and other factors. Some categories — like dressers, mattresses, sofas, and outdoor furniture — won’t be eligible.

Here’s an idea of how much store credit you can get:

  • As new (no scratches) — Up to 50% of the original price

  • Very good (minor scratches) — Up to 40% of the original price

  • Well-used (several scratches) — Up to 30% of the original price

Note that you’ll need to be a member of the IKEA Family program to use this perk. Here’s how it works:

  1. Check to see if your local store participates in the program.

2. Fill out a form to get an emailed quote of the “buy back” value.

3. Bring your quote, buyback number, and fully assembled furniture to the store.

4. An employee will evaluate the item to confirm its value.

5. You get store credit equal to the value, and your furniture goes to their “As-Is” department for resale.
