    Evening all.
    I just wanted to confirm that the Ikea eat for free worked very well for us tonight.
    Our DD's were thrilled that they could have what they wanted to eat and drink. Although we did draw the line at our 8 yr old having a salmon salad just for her starter! We had wine, cider, coffees, soft drinks for the girls, and mains and desserts. Also bought biscuits and snacks for our trip to legoland on Sunday. £39.80 in total.
    The girl on the till explained the offer to the couple in front of us, but she said I assume you know about the offer to us!
    You really could go to town with this offer if you wanted to as the staff didn't bat an eyelid.

    Hope you all have a lovely weekend, and Bubbs huge congratulations on your loss this week. Truly amazing. I have to say SW is amazing, although I totally fell off it tonight though!

    First time ever, I am waiting for new month to claim my eVouchers :D

    Me too! Mind you I have some eVouchers which will expire soon so may wait a little while before clicking 'get vouchers'. And I'll wait a few days (can't remember why this is wise?) before doing another order.

    ditto :D

    a devoted fan since the dawn of time and I also loiter on several of the FB archers groups :D

    I don't loiter on the groups but I listen every night on catchup as I am getting ready for bed.

    Going to rescue my yoghurt which is ready now and then going to bed. Night everyone.

    Thanks for the IKEA confirmation. Your 'IKEA eat for free' phrase helped me find information online. Helpful details are on these web pages:

    http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/deals/deals-hunter/2017/03/28/eat-free-ikea-restaurant-spend-least-amount-store/

    http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/store/edinburgh/offers-edinburgh/

    If you click on the terms and conditions it says:
    IKEA Restaurant Offer for IKEA FAMILY Members

    Purchase a meal from IKEA Restaurant between 20th March and 14th April after 4.30pm Monday to Friday and redeem your receipt for the amount you spend to use in-store on any home furnishing product.

    Offer valid from 20/03/17 to 14/04/17 after 4.30pm Monday to Friday (inclusive). Offer available for IKEA FAMILY members only. Offer valid in all stores excluding IKEA Warrington, and the Aberdeen, Birmingham, Norwich and Westfield Stratford City Order and Collection Points.

    It is worth reading all the terms and conditions as there are some exclusions on what you can buy.

    (Am slightly miffed that I spent a fair bit there a few weeks ago for the first time for ages so need to think what I need before I go back again.)

    Thanks for the IKEA confirmation. I am confused that details don't appear online anywhere as far as I can see. How long do you have to spend your vouchers please?

    (Am slightly miffed that I spent a fair bit there a few weeks ago for the first time for ages so need to think what I need before I go back again.)

    Now I really am going to shut down the PC!

    They aren't vouchers Picasso. Basically keep.your restaurant receipt. Then when you go through the checkout with your purchases of items hand over your restaurant receipt and they deduct the total bill off your shopping.
    It's only valid Monday to.Friday after 4.30pm and you have to do both the restaurant and 'shop' on the same day. This offer is valid until 14 April. Some stores are excluded though. There's a link on the darkside if you search for Ikea. Hth.

    Edit - just seen that you found some more info which explains it better than I did! Just remember to hand over your ikea family card!
