Do you shop at Ikea?

I LOVE Ikea, but we don't have one in Bahrain. Our closest are:
Riyhadh - Saudi Arabia - approx 3 hours by car
Dubai - one hour plane trip.

Other than the PET SHOP, it's the first place I go when I land in Dubai and hit the shops!

I'm excited about my trip to Ikea. I'm going to get this chair since I had to get rid of my recliner because I couldn't get the pee smell out of it (Corkscrew urinated on it a few times when he was sick) I love that the chair folds out into a futon, I wanted something that someone could sleep on in case I have a friend spend the night. But I live in such a small apartment that I can't have a full sized couch.

When I went to the one in L.A. I bought this pillow. It's actually a cat bed, but I really liked it so I keep it on my bed as a pillow.

the closest ikea is in pittsburg, almost 3 hours east of columbus. i window shop on line, alot.:) . i'd love to go to the store. there is a carte and barrel opening soon in columbus, so i'll check them out first.;)

I bought lots of furniture there in the 70ties, but haven't since. We do still have some bookshelves from Ikea, though.

Like others said, everybody here - at least young people, have something from Ikea.
