Hello
We have a family card and are currently putting together a Pax wardrobe. I have read that there are sometimes promotions related to Pax (40 € discount per running meter) or special promotional cards.
We live near Wallau. How often and when do such promotions usually occur? Can we expect something like this around Christmas?
Thank you

Every Christmas, IKEA offers an additional 10% when purchasing gift cards.
For example, buy a gift card worth €2000 (3 years statutory limitation period, longer by goodwill) and receive a €200 promotional voucher (valid for 6 months from IKEA) on top.
Otherwise, there are occasionally some deals.
Check websites like mydealz and look in their history for past IKEA promotions to see when these offers usually appear.

We do a lot through classified ads (buying and selling).
Many people want to hand over the vouchers in person and have them checked directly at the IKEA checkout. But since I didn’t want to drive 400 km (250 miles), we arranged for registered mail shipment (so you have the seller’s address in case of any issues). Then, you simply go to IKEA beforehand and have them verify if the vouchers are worth what was promised.
Always print out the ad as well. It’s a lot of money after all. Most sellers also include a receipt with the voucher showing the remaining balance.
This kind of approach has to be worthwhile. We also saw ads like “Offering a €500 voucher and want €495 for it.” That’s not really worth it.
We knew the price of the Pax wardrobe and bought the vouchers accordingly. The staff at IKEA looked puzzled when I presented 8 cards at the checkout. In the end, instead of paying about €2,000 (approximately $2,200), we paid around €1,550 (about $1,700) using the vouchers.
But as I said, not everyone wants to do it with registered mail. The incentive was also sending PayPal payments to friends. People usually wanted to get rid of the vouchers quickly.
