Become an IKEA Family member View this post on Instagram #ikea #ikeafamily #ikeafamilycard #insteddy #instamacika #macika A post shared by 🐻 𝓜𝓪𝓬𝓲𝓴𝓪 🐻 (@ma.ci.ka) on Aug 22, 2019 at 7:42am PDT It turns out you don't need a family of your own to be an IKEA Family member and take advantage of all their offers. Registration for the program is free and you can receive 10% off your purchases as well as exclusive deals and other perks. Look for the yellow and red label IKEA Canada When you see a yellow and red label at IKEA, that means it's the cheapest item in its category that the store offers. If the label is only yellow, that means it's your last chance to get that item but it's still on sale so grab it before it's gone.

This section includes returns and/or furniture with small defects that are sold for cheaper than the regular price. As an added bonus, the furniture is already assembled, it's a real win-win!
