Just came across this on YouTube - you know how it is, one video leads to another, which leads to another and before you know it you're watching a guy make fire by friction with IKEA products right out of the store.

Seriously. S.W.M.B.O has dictated that this summer we have to go to I**A. Never mind that the nearest one is 600km away in another country!

I feel your pain, Rune. The nearest I**a to me is about 300mi away (excuse me, 482.8km :D ) in another state, yet we still manage to wind up in one about once every year or two when we go away for vacation. Wear comfortable walking shoes and when you can't take any more, lie down on a futon and wait for her to finish shopping. :D

I have never been and will never go to an IKEA for the same reasons as I don't wear crocs, play golf, own a dyson or any electronics prefixed by an i.

If the High St stores didn't sell such ghastly furniture IKEA wouldn't get a look in. But, yet again, were getting into Humble Opinion territory. It would be a dull world if we all liked the same stuff. :)

Well we all know that it does come in usefull, I always get lost somewhere between lamps and kitchenwares. That shop is so disorientating..... Likely the lack of windows.

I get over the stress of going by picking up lots of swedish snacks for bush crafting.... But I suppose being from norway you don't even enjoy that bit? That is hell!

Too right, I'm with aman on that one....
Besides , I always thought IKEA stuff were only good for the fire anyhow.... :)

Nothing wrong with IKEA, the amount of shoppers using them says that the poo pooers on this thread are...wrong.
