Sign up for the IKEA friends and family card. Free coffee and tea upstairs in the restaurant and an extra 30 minutes in Smaland for any of those potty trained youngsters with the card.
Almost all my house is full with IKEA furniture! Try food first, you will spend a couple of hours shopping between showroom and marketplace! Sometimes the products are sold out, check it first online.
I come here for candles and orchids every time I'm in the area. The candles smell delicious and they have a great selection. The orchids are beautiful and healthy. Best prices around for both, too.
Need help figuring out what you need in your home office area don't ask the girls in that department, they wont help or know how to use the software. They prefer to sit there & talk about people.
Judging by all the vehicles on a weekend, you'd think that this is a tourist destination. There are people from all over! For locals, its best to go during the week when its less crowded.
Huge mistake removing the self-service check outs. I used to be able to get tea lights and be in and out in 10 minutes. Now every line is 20 people deep.
Join Ikea family! You get a free ice cream for joining and free coffee/tea whenever you visit, plus access to member only deals and extra playtime at the childcare area.
If you have a mobile phone that takes pictures and you forget to grab a pencil/paper from the entrance, you can take a picture of the price tag to know where to find it in the self-service location
Heads up. If your kids are going to Smaland, they need socks and to be potty trained. The store has vending machines for socks, but coworkers won't make change without a purchase.
Need to get through the store quickly- follow the shortcuts on the map or skip the showroom and start at the marketplace if you already know what you want!
Bring bags because they don't have free bags anymore. Reusable bags are available for purchase also. You will bag your own merchandise. Start upstairs and see what is in the showroom before shopping d
