IKEA!! Have you ever been there? If you have, do you have a certain way to shop there? As you probably know by now, IKEA is a frequent word in my vocabulary and on my blog. Every time I get to go I get so excited!
My friend Staci @ The Potters Place and I shop IKEA frequently and we thought we would take you on our escapade and give you tips on how to make the most of your IKEA experience! Watch our video…
When I get to IKEA every time I first grab a fun shopping cart and grab a catalog. I take the girls with me to the potty which is the family bathroom, it makes life so much easier to all go in the same bathroom!
If I don’t put the kids in the daycare they have there (which is free), I let them come with me and we start upstairs. Upstairs is basically the showroom where they have everything set up for you to give you ideas and inspiration. The restaurant is also upstairs so we usually grab something to eat and take a rest and another bathroom break. One time I forgot diapers for my 1 year old and IKEA saved the day! They have free diapers in the family bathroom; so kid-friendly!
We then travel downstairs and get our shop on. I love all the wonderful things they have.
One spot at IKEA that I can’t wait to check out is the seasonal area, right before the checkout lines. This area has all of the seasonal items and they go pretty fast so sometimes I like to peek in there before I even start the store!
After checking out I go in the food section. I usually leave with a cinnamon roll, yum!
