IKEA findings



1)
I got the Orgel Vreten floor lamp for $20. Pro: It was on sale from $30 to $20! Con: The lamp shade is made of paper. The paper is like paper-mache thick, but I'm kind of afraid it could rip. ("So handle me with care...")
2) You know those road map rugs that I posted a while ago? Well they're in the IKEA children's section for $14! The rug is about 5x6, and technically called a "playmat." I would have bought it if it hadn't been for the transportation issue. But if anyone is driving to school and wants a cheap, functional rug AND a place to play Hot Wheels on your floor, then I suggest jumping on this deal.

3) My brother is evil. I was browsing in the marketplace while he was in the restaurant eating Swedish meatballs and he didn't even save any.

4) There was a Scandinavian looking employee who had a fake mustache that was half falling off. He looked redonkulous!

5) The rooms in Douglass are pretty big, so there's a lot of space for entertaining, etc. I thought about getting a LACK side table for $8 (seriously! $8! and it comes in a lot of colors too) or a coffee table for $20. Again, if not for transportation issues, I would have bought this.

6) I love IKEA. The end.
