I just cancelled a trip to Ikea today because of bad weather.

 

I love this store! But, I hope they don't have any Black Friday deals. Considering I have to drive two hours to get to the closest one, it would take a big chunk out of my shopping time on BF. :)

I don't know if they will have any BF specials, as they are such a great deal to start. Try calling them and asking if there will be anything. They may not tell you what, but at least you will know if there is anything.

 

motoXmom ~ They sell pretty much everything! I have gotten an entertainment center there (real nice and only $200) as well as lots of little things to use around the house. They are a Swedish company and their website is ikea.com

Ask and ye shall receive :)

 

Here are some holiday specials I got from their e-mailing list. It's a little hard to pin them down, as they were formatted as a calendar. Each deal appears to be in effect for just a few days, so I'd make sure to call if you were making a special trip for one thing.

The Ikea down here in SD is a death trap....only 1 way in & out, and they make you walk past every single item in their store before you can leave.

all ikea's are like that.

 

i noticed though that most "specials" would always say "not valid at SD store."

 

i got their specials in this past sunday's paper.

Not quite all of the IKEAs are like that. The Chicago store is of the new, 3-story sort. It's arranged in rings, with escalators and elevators in the center.

 

It's actually much less user-friendly, though. To see everything, you have to walk the center ring, the outer ring, and every spoke of walkway connecting them, on each floor. There's no efficient way to do it. You'll see most of the store 2 or 3 times, and most likely realize that you missed one area you needed to visit--when you're one floor down and kitty-corner across the building from it.

 

The old-style blue-box IKEA rules!
