My First Ikea Experience

I don’t know why I waited so long to go to an Ikea store, the Ikea rave started much earlier in Canada than the US but I just never went. Maybe because I didn’t really need to buy anything back then since I was still living with my parents :)

My sister-in-law got us some pillows for Christmas from Ikea which are so comfortable!

JJ and I went to Ikea for the first time last friday. We are planning on buying some new kitchen cabinets with our tax rebate and looking online, Ikea’s prices are lower than Home Depot.  Ikea’s prices are suprisingly low and their products look like they are of a really good quality.

I like how they have displays of the products so you know what the packaged product looks like. In a warehouse looking area their are not many displays just a bunch of boxes with Industrial clamps but I think the displays for those items were upstairs. We never looked up there and actually never got the chance to look at the kitchen cabinets. We did buy a shoe shelf that we still need to paint and food storage containers.

Hopefully we will get the chance to go back soon. Our closest Ikea is half an hour away but it seems so far because we live in an area where everything is so close to us.

    We like to eat at Ikea too. For about $5 you get a Swedish style meal. We just bought Victoria a desk from there. The kitchen cabinets are the best. You can check them out online as well.
