I’m not sure I’m cut out for IKEA. It’s just too big, with too many choices. I like small stores with few choices. Aldi, for example. Every time I left that place I felt confident and happy. Yesterday, when I returned from IKEA I felt frustrated, stressed, and exhausted. It doesn’t help that the last two times I went to IKEA when I’d finally made it through the store to the bins and aisles of merchandise they didn’t have what I wanted. WHAT?!!!!
That being said, I love the family parking and the easy access to bars of chocolate.

I too get lost and or overwhelmed there. What I do is look at their catalog at home and mark what I want so I am on a “mission” when I get there. That is after we eat in the cafeteria, of course. Maybe a catalog will help so you are not confused, over tired and overwhelmed.
I bet you’re right, Julie. If I went in more prepared it wouldn’t feel so overwhelming instore.
