Like shuttle bus from an offsite parking lot busy. I've been missing the NoVa one since I moved down here, but I'm waiting until the crowds die down some. Mostly because I'm mildly claustrophobic and I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to find one of those hidden passageways from one section to another if I started getting the heeby-jeebies from the two tons of people, and would have to fight said two tons of people as I tried to streak through the maze of sections regularly because I needed to get out of there fast.

And everything was just as cheaply made as I remember (but pretty, though). I think their tactic of setting up entire rooms is genius and most certainly entices people to not only buy the awesome-looking bed, but the closet system, the linens and all the lights too.<BR/><BR/>We almost made it out without buying anything before dropping $65 on bathroom stuff. Oh, and we had some pretty good food, too.FunnyGal KAThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10827578909140878399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7697970748959331420.post-69441886544586730042009-02-23T17:59:00.000-05:002009-02-23T17:59:00.000-05:00I love Ikea.

The best part is when you see a room that looks amazing and you read the tag that says "you can have this entire room for $2,200!" What a steal...until I remember that I'm a broke law student with no money.biancahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14598767376093014476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7697970748959331420.post-9257670395356069882009-02-23T11:43:00.000-05:002009-02-23T11:43:00.000-05:00I want to marry IKEA.
