  • Ikea dont put the sale items online.

    I went to the sale on Thursday and ended up spending over £100 - only went for a 12.99 mirror - lol

    It is a good sale though - the summer sale is always the best. Lots of items half price.

    If you go towrds the end of sale they reduce some items even further so bargains to be had

    Don't tell me .....you're after a triple Wardrobe?! (that's gonna be an interesting trip).

    Actually, one of the funniest things I saw in a long while was in an Ikea car park. Two women were trying to fit a double, bed (ie base & mattress) into their Vauxhall Nova (with a young boy in a car seat) - priceless & even more so due to the look of complete bemusement as to why it wouldn't fit.

    went to the Milton Keynes store yesterday... wasn't overly impressed with the sale items - not a huge amount of things on sale ....might be better in a couple of weeks time when they reduce things even further....

    I agree with purplepurple, Bristol had not very much in sale - I'd think twice about travelling 60 miles and making it worthwhile with bargains.

    I'd actually prefer having my kneecaps drilled rather than face going to Ikea...& I only live 3 miles away from one.

    I find it astonishing people would travel 30 miles on buses & trains!

    Give it a couple more years & we'll *all* have billy bookcases, birch bedroom wardobes & pictures of 1930s New York men eating sandwiches on girders hanging on our walls.

    Hail Globalisation.
