    "$60.00 application fee and $2.90 monthly account keeping fee." —

    • yeah, kills the deal…

      • Yep - makes it a crap deal with those fees. You wouldn't be doing it just for the $50 card, but if you were going to put something on finance anyway, then if you do it between the applicable dates, then you'd get the bonus $50 voucher. Good deal for the minority, but useless for the majority I guess.

  • I got excited when read this, but in the end it is not the same $20 voucher for every $200 spend promotion they run a few days ago. I hope they do it again very soon, i have a list of more than $2,000 furniture to buy in a couple of week time.

  • I get a 15% discount since my wife works there - even off clearance and reduced pricing, it's a solid discount.

    Plus she got a free $100 voucher, a cushion, a box, chocolate etc and paid 4 hours for attending their new catalogue launch on Saturday.

    Good company for benefits.

    • Cool. I hope i know someone works at IKEA.
      Is there any chance your wife work at Logan IKEA? Hehe.

      • Nope, Tempe, NSW. If by any chance you are after Bedroom furniture I have some vouchers (will have to check if they work outside of Tempe though)

        • Yes, bedroom furniture is on my list. If you can confirm that please let me know "dream_my at msn.com". Cheers

        • Sorry mate, I checked and they are Tempe only :(

  • They don't ask for much for essentially a 10% discount (at most) which almost every other retailer offers without conditions?

  • So, taking the base case ($500 "Interest Free" for 6 months), you are charged an effective APR of 35.2%
    Loan sharks would kill for that sort of margin

    It works out more favourably for > $5000 @ 24 months, but apart from a kitchen fitout I think most would struggle to spend $5000 in one hit at Ikea.
    In the grand scheme of things, the $50 gift voucher is more like a rounding error (The interest earned on $5000 over 2 years dwarfs it)

  • just be sure you thoroughly read and understand the financing t&cs.

    "As shopping traps go, long-term payment deals are as bad as they get. They can cost you hundreds of dollars in fees alone, even if you pay everything off within the interest-free period."
