IKEA Family is a membership program, like grocery store memberships. The only real feature of the program was their 5% discount. But now, they are getting rid of it to focus on “New Lower Price offers”. I’m not holding my breath that their prices are going to come down anytime soon.

IKEA Family is worthless now. They do offer “select delivery options” with no explanation on what this means.

    Per Wikipedia:

    shrinkflation, also known as the grocery shrink ray, deflation, or package downsizing, is the process of items shrinking in size or quantity, or even sometimes reformulating or reducing quality, while their prices remain the same or increase.

    I can’t see how furniture could ever qualify as shrinkflation, unless we’re counting something like the use of crappier materials.
