Free Coffee/Tea Mon-Fri at Ikea

Options
13 February 2007


What's the deal?

Ikea has introduced a free loyalty card scheme entitling holders to various special promotions and offers, including a free tea or coffee in its restaurant Mon-Fri.

The scheme's been piloted in three stores (Ashton-under-lyne, Leeds and Warrington) for several weeks, and from 14 Feb will be available nationwide.

How to get a free bevvie

Sign up for the 'Ikea Family Card' by filling out a form in-store (you'll be able to opt out of additional marketing too, though this may mean not receiving advance notice of promotional offers).

You'll receive the loyalty card on the spot and as long as you're in Ikea on a week day, produce the card to receive a free tea or coffee of your choice.

  • Ikea now have a loyalty card. Its called an Ikea family card and is free to sign up for.
    Fill in a form at your local store and you get a card to use straight away.
    The card entitles you to free tea or coffeee in the restaurant mon-fri.
    They have a new family department and you get 25% off the stuff in there with your card too.
    Its not like coffeee costs a lot in Ikea but every little helps:beer:

    You also get free soft drinks for your kiddies with the loyalty card! A good thing for me being a mum of 4 ;) Becoming a member is free and also ensures that you get the Ikea catalogue sent to you and any upcoming offers / sales!

    I've got a home card with Ikea already and have been told that the family card is different and is more of a loyalty card. I've been told by customer services that it's only available in 3 Ikea stores. That's us in Wales left out again then! We're always the last to get any new services, stock etc.
    I wish you......
