BeckyBoo Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Oooooh, I went to Ikea a couple of weeks ago for the first time in years, bought a bright red Billy bookcase for £29, (OH was horrified when he saw it he likes magnolia ) and a big lamp to stand on the floor for £6! And night lights for the kids bedrooms, and that was it - very restrained I thought. Haven't mentioned that Mum and I are going back again at the end of THIS month, and prpbably the one after that too!! Mind you he's admitted to loving the bookcase now so he can't complain, specially as it's full mostly of his books Mrs B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 only 2 trolleys call yourself a serious shopper You certainly can't do Ikea properly with anything less than 2 trolleys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 I will have two trolleys with lovely stuff like wooden boxes, kilner jars, napkins, candles, picture frames and fabric. OH will have the other 2 trolleys with the necessary bits like coat hangers, more wooden boxes, kilner jars, candles........ Can't wait for the Southampton shop to open Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillfamily Posted February 16, 2008 Author Share Posted February 16, 2008 Phew - thanks for clarifying that Christian I can put you back on my list of serious shoppers The only draw back of not taking teenagers with me next week - less bodies to push trollies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jules. Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 We're off to the Warrington one on Wednesday -Hey, that would be a great place for an Omlet meet We're getting Ethan a bed for his newly- built room. It's a tiny room, only 180cm across under the window, so we're going to get him a toddler bed which is 165cm long as it will be his frist time sleeping in a room on his own, as he has always shared either with us or Alexander. It will have a little wooden cat & dog on it It comes in natural pine & red- his fav colour is red...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
