IKEA

October 2nd, 2007 · 2 Comments

I have this weird obsession with IKEA.

I’m not sure where I picked it up.

But some time in the past year, I discovered this *ahem* little Sweedish gem. It’s a massive store full of furniture that even a guy can pick out. And cheap! And supposedly good quality.

Oklahoma doesn’t have an IKEA. The only other time I’ve actually been in an IKEA store was in the Dallas-Ft. Worth mush-o-plex. It was fun.

Imagine my glee when I saw this:

Start Making Your List and Practicing Your Swedish; Floridas First IKEA Store Will Open October 17 in Sunrise

In case you care, here is the difference between aforementioned IKEA store and where I live.

    I’m not sure what the obessession with Ikea is. I’ve walked the store a million times and think I’ve purchased three things. The items are plain and no-nonsense. Maybe that’s the attraction for men?

    That’s because you’re buying Ethan Allen.

    Ikea has good starter furniture that is quality, but at a good price.

    And yes, the minimalist furniture is good. Especially for a packrat like me.
