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.
Is this actually “shrinkflation?”
The phrase literally comes from product manufacturers who shrink the volume of their product and sell it for the same price.
This is basically a crappier loyalty program.
I think colloquially people have begun expanding use of the word to include anything where features or product are removed but the price stays the same.
Maybe there's a better word for that, but I understand the parallel.
Isn’t this loyalty program free like many others?
You don't pay cash for it, but it takes up your time and IKEA gets your data and is allowed to send you spam. So kinda free, but also not.
So the price stays the same
This is the worst 0 dollars I've spent
Lack tables are now 20% smaller
They were full sized tables but then Bobby dropped them
How am I going to fit my rackmount servers into it now?
This is the loss right here.. those tables were perfect and apparently they no longer are. Sad day
Your Billy is 20% smaller.
Now it's called Bill.
It's actually sold in two parts now: Bill and Lï
So the tables are really lacking?
You're joking, but they did change the design of the Lack tables about a decade ago to make more of the legs hollow. They were popular as diy home server racks, but the hollow legs make it more difficult to mount more than one or two units of space.
This program was to encourage you to be loyal by offering you discounts. Now that you're loyal, fuck you.
I think this is just normal inflation, since it's cost. I guess you could also argue it's skimpflation.
