    Tram or car to Croydon is the question?

    No point getting there early - you'll get killed in the crowds. Best to get there the night before and camp out.
    Go in the day before, pick everything you want and make sure it's in stock. Write down all the aisle and shelf numbers for everything and when the doors open RUN LIKE HELL for the tills!!
    "I wonder what discount you get for going into labour in Ikea??!!"
    You won't get any discount - you'll just get trampled by the tens of thousands of bargain hunters who will not thank you for getting in their way. Best of luck with baby :)

    We're off to the Coventry Ikea on Sautrday anyway, before I found out about the sale, so this has just made it even better!!

    Glad to see Martin confirmed it on IPTW too!

    Try the new Coventry branch which is in Coventry City Centre...It's almost a pleasure to shop there, owing to the LACK of customers !!!
    Openeing week bombed so I can't see that a day's sale would make much difference.
    Yeah I love it in there... it's sooo empty :rotfl:

    The worst bit is the check out. I always seem to get served by a muppet who can't work the til.

    May go down and get a new sofa. We have been eyeing one up for a while now.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    Bahhh - Wanted to get there for the free breakfast but DS's paper round doesn't finish until 7.30

    Then I've got to take him for ski lesson to Brum

    Good job it's open until midnight but unhappily trains don't run that late from Cov:rolleyes:

    I just received the email from Ikea too.

    It says if you're not a family member, you can join at the door and still get the free breakfast.

    Top tip: if you can wear a reversible coat and take a hat... go round and have 2 :)

    The actual wording is:

    "Friends and family are welcome along too - they can simply join IKEA FAMILY on the door to enjoy the free breakfast and loads of family offers"
  • Just had my email from Ikea with the details of this, can't wait!!!

    Xmas Saver!
    Just priced up the kitchen, and then written a list wih 45 other items, from a sofa, 2 wardrobes, 2 shelves, a dressing table, lamps, blinds......couldn't have come at a better time, exchanged last week, move in in 2. Wouldv'e had to spend the cash anyway.
    Van booked, live 10 mins away, reckon I'll have to go in 3 times to get it all!
    strategic route planned, final recce mission tomorrow.
    Am I a little too keen and prepared for this?
