You lucky dog! I mean not that I couldn't shop there, but it would be a lengthy stretch from my house to Canton on a good day. I would like to check it out someday though. Are you going to brave the Grand Opening or wait a few days?

Keith told me this morning that the first 100 customers get a free chair. There's already quite a few people camped out...think I should go?

DO IT!

I'm so happy for you! Penny took me a couple months ago and we had The Best Time. You can even get lunch there!

Over here, there was a mob scene when Ikea sold a couch for 40 GBP (about 80 doll hairs to you) and someone was stabbed. People were fighting for stuff etc. That's what Ikea will do to ya...Their food is good too so you should visit their cafe which will be cheap:)

What nationality is Ikea? Because there was a huge Ikea corporate center in Norway...randomly enough. I didn't really know was Ikea was, but it sure looked like there was a HQ in Norway. Could it be a Scandinavian company? Or maybe just European HQ were there?

Just noticed your post, Craig...Yes, Ikea was founded in Sweden and the products have a Scandinavian design. I hesitate to even talk about the geography of that area because my knowledge is very limited!
