does IKEA ever have sales?
 

I'm planning to refurnish my room with a new desk and some other units.

hmm.. does ikea ever have any kind of sales?
perhaps 10%-15% off?
They have nice, affordable funitures, but since I'm planning to completely relayout my room I hope I can save some here and there..

Hm.. I don't suppose I can bargain at IKEA with the cashiers...
LMAO..

BTW: Any other recommendation for bedroom furnitures...
I might put a cheap brand-name LCD TV into my room as well...

They have sales twice a year. They've played those ikea ads on tv for years advertising 2 sales a year.

when do they usually happen?

Summer and winter I believe, sucks cause I wanted to redo my room as well lol

what the fuck, i want to re-do my room too. Except with black hardwood floors :)

the linen n things next to ikea coquitlam , and linen n things in general have their going out of business sale, could try that too. or just find someone who works their and use their employee discount (15%)

Ikea regularly puts a selection of items on discount. They advertise it on their website. The nice thing is that both stores will have different items on sale.

Ocassionally they will put ads in the Van Sun with some doorcrasher items when there is overstock. Last year I remember getting some shelves for super cheap around May or June.

But if you're expecting a traditional sale where everything is discounted, I don't think that happens.

Oh and don't forget the $1 breakfast. Hmm I think I will have that tomorrow.

Also once you find the item you like, try looking for it on CL before you buy because there is lots of ikea furniture always on sale on craiglist. And you won't have to put it together.

LOL
:haha::haha::haha::haha:

What's in the $1 breakfast?
Do you actually get full from it?

ewww.. why hardwood floor?

I placed a green carpet over my hardwood floor because I don't like to step on cold wooden floor in the morning. Besides, not like I'm going to throw a party in my room or anything like that, so there won't be any major messes that is hard to clean up...
-IMO-

what are you planning to do to your room?

haha.. i was planning to repaint my room to baby blue, but it seems to be too much of a hassel since i have school to worry about right now

ikea sometimes has a no tax day(or weekend). When they do have the no tax, i find it to be one of the best times to shop.

do you have any idea when that is?

yea i know what you mean, i had hardwood at my old house, but now i have carpet. BUT, do you know how nice and unique BLACK hardwood floor is?

^
nope.. never had or even seen them

I thought Ikea had a sale going now... at least that's what the commercials say.

I love you.
