Ikea’s new click and collect charge has made headlines! The Swedish furniture powerhouse is now adding a £2 fee for customers opting to pick up online orders at their stores. But wait, there’s a twist—you might not have to pay it! If you’re part of the Ikea Family loyalty programme, you can enjoy the click and collect service completely free of charge.
Not a member? Don’t worry; you can still access various collection points like selected Tesco car parks, DPD, or locker points, though fees may apply if you don’t hit a specific spend threshold. For Ikea Family members, collecting from these points is on the house when you spend £100 or more at Tesco locations, or from £60 at DPD spots.
Ikea has introduced this charge to ensure their delivery and collection services remain economically sustainable. Despite the new fee, the goal is to expand their collection options for more customer convenience.
This update follows a busy year for Ikea in the UK, highlighted by the opening of a massive new flagship store on London’s bustling Oxford Street, which took over the iconic former Topshop location. The store spans three levels, offering roughly 6,000 product ranges, with 3,500 items available for immediate purchase.
So, if you love Ikea, consider joining the Ikea Family to dodge that pesky £2 fee and enjoy a bit more from your shopping experience! What are your thoughts on this new charge? Let us know!
