fourfinches Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Ikea is about the only shop I can get OH to come shopping without him moaning. Even the boys don't complain too much - they just slow me down by trying out all the furniture Its my day off on Friday, I was wondering what to do...

chelsea Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Believe it or not, I HAVE NEVER BEEN to Ikea Our "local" one would be Bristol which is miles and miles away so we are unlikely to go. I do all my shopping online....the only time I visit a shop is maybe once over xmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Oh Chelsea you haven't lived until you've been to IKEA! The crowds, screaming children, lack of stock, people barging past, boxes piled 20 ft high, incomplete flat packs, waiting for your OH to return with the car as they have stupid parking arrangements and oh, the queues! Its worth going just to stand in line for 3 hours! I love it! edit - go on a Saturday, its even more fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Sounds great !! Maybe I will suggest to hubby we'll go this weekend, with it being a Bank Holiday/half term weekend 'n' all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Oh yes, Bank Holiday!!! Your best bet is Monday. It'll be packed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 The crowds, screaming children, lack of stock, people barging past, boxes piled 20 ft high, incomplete flat packs, waiting for your OH to return with the car as they have stupid parking arrangements and oh, the queues! Its worth going just to stand in line for 3 hours! That sounds like fun Christian! Do they hand out free medication to those who can't cope with it all? Never been to Ikea and not likely to go in the future either. I prefer the little independant shops you find in the smaller shopping areas, they usually have good customer service and nice things at good prices too!
