Excellent justification for buying lots at the same time given the delivery fee - though... given doorstep deliver is now the norm... maybe not 'lots and lots'zagubov said:There's some very remote locations in recent posts. i wouldn't like to think how long a drive it would be to the nearest IKEA!

It's actually a thing in the Highlands that people band together and place an Ikea delivery every few months or so alltogether to cut costs. Works a treat lolzagubov said:There's some very remote locations in recent posts. i wouldn't like to think how long a drive it would be to the nearest IKEA!

I like it, or at least I could live with it. I don’t know the area, but it’s a lot of house for the money.RelievedSheff said:The outside of this one doesn't really match the inside!!

You get a lot for your money in Worksop. That's why we moved out here from neighbouring Sheffield, you get a lot more house for your money.GDB2222 said:
