How do you get this? Is it on family card offers?

Did they just give it to you after your purchase or do you think there's a minimum spend please? Thinking of going this week...

it depends on the total weight, number of items, etc. If you're interested in getting the whole kitchen delivered, then you would be looking at, say, 500 kg (again, so much depends on the size). There are tons of transport companies out there who would be just happy to get it all delivered over here. We use 7 different smallish companies we trust and these guys are always on time and within budgets. Another aspect to consider is that you would have to pay extra to delivery companies to go physically to the store and buy the items on your behalf from the list. They charge little extra for that, but it's all well worth it. For small individual items, though, even DHL / UPS will do. As you can expect, returning any items might be a challenge, but if you know what you're doing it's worth the hassle.

Astounding to say the least! They are charging an arm and a leg in France, definitely no less than in the UK. Although did you know that France has the cheapest kitchen appliances in the entire Europe? For kitchen cabinets though you must look further afield. Depending on the kitchen style (its size / shape / front doors / appliances / etc) the total price of your kitchen would probably be 60% dependent on the type of your front doors you go for. Say for example you like modern crisp white gloss doors - there is a range for that at IKEA, it's called Ringhult white (ever wondered why it shows up first item when navigating to kitchen doors category? http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/kitchen-products/cabinet-doors-fronts-panels/) So the standard 80x60 cm door costs £43 in the UK. Now, why not to compare the price for this same door in Europe? It works out £19.89 in Eastern Europe. Now, how much would it cost you to get the whole kitchen delivered from there? In the region of £700 (depending on the size, weight, no of items). There are massive discounts to be had. Some IKEA items are 25% of the price you pay in the UK. Look-up, for instance, Pen cup DOKUMENT - it's like £3.5 in the UK vs £0.88 in Germany! Again, you might be interested in reading Barry's story - he had his 30% discount on IKEA kitchen which saved him handsomely £1500.

you should check if you get a good deal at IKEA when buying in the UK. With all due respect, there is always an option of sourcing IKEA from somewhere else and pay 2/3 of the UK price.

But they were probably already far cheaper than elsewhere.

Could you kindly post IKEA product codes so that we can compare what you could have paid in Europe? There are massive price differences on some of IKEA items. We know your starting point was £1400, it's interesting to see if that could have brought down to more like £1000 including delivery?

What do you do then? So, if the item is £10 cheaper in Croydon, will the Wembley store honour that deal? Driving from Wembley to Croydon and back is a major undertaking.

To be fair for £800 you probably wiped them out.

Nothing on Saturday when I spent £200. :disappointed:

Yeah, lots of flat pack furniture and cheap hot dogs. :man:
