THE AS-IS DEPARTMENT
A Second Chance for Our Products
Would you throw away your table just because it had a small scratch? Neither would we! Instead, we offer it to you at a lower price in our As-Is department. This way, you save money and help the environment at the same time.

Visit our As-Is department located near the cash lanes for clearance items, overstocks, discontinued products, and display merchandise from 35%-75% off their original price!

Wednesdays save an additional 20% on As-Is assembled furniture. See an As-Is coworker in the store for more details.

Buy a SUNNAN light, IKEA will donate one to UNICEF
GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
IKEA helps Enlighten Children
Help bring a little light in the dark for those in need. Starting June 1, 2009- for each SUNNAN solar cell powered lamp you buy, we'll donate one to UNICEF. These environmentally friendly lamps will go to children in developing countries, so they can read, write and study after sunset, even if their homes have no electricity.

Our SUNNAN lamp runs on solar cells that transform sunlight into electricity, it requires no electrical connections. This lamp will help you save energy and reduce your footprint. LED consumes 70% less energy and has at least 4 times longer life than incandescent bulbs in similar decorative lighting. These lamps come with three rechargeable AA 1.2V batteries for solar cell driven products, it takes about 9 hours to recharge and will last for approximately 4 hours.

Enlighten your life and that of a child!

RECYCLING CHANGE
Battery Recycling On Hold

IKEA & THE ENVIRONMENT
We’re helping to lower energy demand.
At IKEA Costa Mesa, conserving the environment is important to us. We share many of the same environmental goals as our partners at
Southern California Edison.
That’s why we are participating in a program to help decrease the environmental impact of generating electricity. By lowering our energy use, we’re also doing our part to maintain grid reliability.
So if the lights seem a little lower, or the temperature feels a tad warmer, it’s because we’re helping the community work toward a greener future.
