I HATE Ikea! Whoever invented that store is a moron…. ok I take that back, I guess it is kind of smart to make people walk around the WHOLE ENTIRE STORE before they can get out, so they have to pass by everything. The idea is good from a marketing perspective. But it does not make it easy for the people who like to get in, grab what they want, and get out. And self check outs only?? People do NOT know what they are doing with those, thats why there are cashiers to do it for them.

Last night was only the 2nd time I was ever in an Ikea store… The first time I said, I am NEVER coming back here! but someone gave me a giftcard so I Had to at some point. I have been hanging onto that stupid gift card (For 75$ so I couldn’t just not spend it or give it away or anything, thats a lot of money!) for almost 2 years! Seriously, this Christmas would have been 2 years. But I saw some decent priced baby cribs, so I figured it would be perfect to use the money towards that. So the good news is we got a baby crib!! And the hubby put it together nicely last night. We even got a stain to match to stain the dresser his mom gave us. YEA! So something good did come out of it. But it was seriously the most stressful shopping experience of my entire life last night…. it took me the whole car ride and a stop at Baskin Robins to get icecream for me to calm down.
