It’s like being a rat in a maze. The store is a giant circle or oval or spiral—I can’t exactly figure it out. You don’t have to follow the path, but it helps reduce the “we’ve already been through this part” routine that you’ll find yourself in if you do stray from the path.
Neat things that is very European and somewhat minimalist. Fun things. Always a crowd. Don’t go on Weekends without valium. You either love this store or you hate it. I happen to love it and think that every city should be required to have an Ikea. There is furniture and accessories there for every budget and style. All the furniture comes flat so you can pretty much take everything home with you (provided you have a large enough car). We’ve spent several hundred dollars on beds, chairs, couches, entertainment centers, and computer desks and we move often as well, and our Ikea furniture certainly has stood the test of time. Of course, if you only buy the cheap stuff, you may find that it falls apart much more easily, but spend a few bucks more and get the better stuff and you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
Stop by the café and get some Swedish meatballs before you go. Mmmm…..
