IKEA Insanity


Taylor has wanted a Poang chair from IKEA for a long time. They are super comfy chairs but they run about $100.00. Well last Saturday IKEA had the chair and cushion on sale for $39! My aunt Michelle and I decided to go down and try our luck to get one. The store opened at 10 a.m. and we got there at about 8:40. There were already 32 people in line in front of us and we were hesitant as to whether or not we were really going to even get one. Most of the time when places have sales like this they only have a very small amount of the item on sale. We ended up getting our chairs in the colors we wanted and as we were going downstairs to pick them up, we saw an insane line. We asked a worker if that was the line to pick up your chairs and she said that it was the line to get a ticket to pick up the chair (we had already gotten our tickets). She said that there were about 900 people there to get these chairs. 900!! I couldn't believe it!! Luckily we got ours and Taylor has loved playing his Xbox while sitting in his new chair.

That is so totally crazy. I cannot believe so many people were there! I didn't even know they were having a sale!
