I'm an Ikea Man: Anyone else?
Can't resist that flat pack furniture and you get free tools with every purchase.
...plus mass produced "meat" balls.

I'm ashamed to admit that most of my furniture was assembled by me using allen wrenches.
At least I won't have to worry about leaving it behind if and when I decide to ramble.

Yep... The "meat" balls alone are worth the visit. My GF loves going there.

I grew up going with my parents to 'The Sweden House' restaurant.
The food was good (including the meat balls) My father loved it because it was ayce.

I absolutely despise a flat pack furniture. Once or twice was enough for me to say never again.

Cheapo roll-out mattress has provided many years of decent night's sleep at a very good price.
(remember to let sit unused for a week)

I bought one item from them. About 35 years ago my wife spotted a round expanding pine table that she said she liked. I got off early the next day, drove 2 hours to the store, bought the display model, disassembled it to get it into the back of my car. I had it reassembled before she got home. It may have been the first time I really surprised her.
The only time I shopped there. Best Les
