IKEA, Swedish for Fun
With that out of the way. I went to IKEA for the first time over the weekend. Of course I had heard of how great the store is, even by other guy friends. It’s pretty genious really. It is a big warehouse, don’t be fooled, but they design the layout so you can be trapped in there for hours. It is sort of similar to Casinos, no windows, so you don’t have a sense of time and how long you have been browsing.
It’s a Swedish company so that could lend to the colorful themes throughout the entire store. It gives it a Toys-R-Us feel to keep up the spirits when you’ve realised that you have been shopping for home accecories for the past 4 hours. Coming from a person who can’t really tolerate the idea of shopping, IKEA made it quite bearable.
