Any deals on Ikea kitchen stuff? Apart from the 50 months interest free and the $10 sign up reward which both won't make much of a difference to me is there any cheaper way to buy kitchen cabinets from Ikea?

Yeah I'm already a member. I remember a few years ago at Ikea Tempe they had a huge sale on kitchen stuff, I think it was about 40% off for the store's birthday or something.
Ikea do have kitchen deals sporadically. Usually equates to 10% off either in vouchers or cash back. I put in a $35k Ikea kitchen (including appliances-from other stores/labour), and I got the Ikea cabinetry (~$15k) and was given ~$1500 in Ikea vouchers. I don't normally use credit for anything other than my mortgage, but they also had 0% interest on that $15k, so now for the next 5 years, a small amount comes out of my bank account monthly. I would have been stupid to pay cash at 0%. The kitchen itself is great, high quality and easily a match for my mother's $70k kitchen. One bit of advice. If you're going to use solid wood counter tops (don't use Caesar stone, it's the shagpile carpet of the 2010s- if you need stone, buy the real thing), don't use the oil Ikea recommends. It's shit. Just sand and cover in a polyurethane varnish . It maintains the look of the wood, but it makes it really durable.
I am planning to upgrade my kitc, hen and is looking at Ikea. What is the ball park figure on installation, including plumbing and electrical (disconnect and re-connect, no new piping or wiring required)?
I don't know, I'm going to install it myself and probably only get an electrician to wire up the stove top and oven.
I have a 1 bed apartment in Sydney. Looking at installing an IKEA kitchen as well, praying for a nice sale.
Rough pricing for kitchen was:
IKEA cabinetry, oven, dishwasher, sink $7k
Stone benchtop $3k
Glass splashback $1k
Installation $2k
Electrician $1k
Plumber $1k
Uninstall $1k (I will try and do myself)Apparently rule of thumb is that install should be roughly 50-60% of the IKEA kitchen cost.
Sign up to IKEA Family and from time to time they have exclusive member discounts. Aside from that, IKEA is generally about as cut-price as you can get so you won't find many third party deals or offers.
