you can buy small IKEA goods e.g. the ones from the market hall area, on Amazon therefore no longer needing to visit the giant blue pit of doom itself!

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

I love IKEA, but it's an hour's drive down the motorway for us.

You've just made my day London :)

Croydon IKEA is my nemesis as well. Though I do like the hotdogs!

So glad I am not the only one who didn't know this. Was expecting a thread full of people saying "of course, I thought everyone knew that!"

It's not everything (worried now that people will come back angry that not all products are on Amazon) but it's definitely some things. They are not all on with IKEA names i.e hibba, listad or thor! I just searched IKEA

I'd need to check, but the prices seem high compared to my memory.

Autumnwitch - Is any price too high to avoid being sucked into the great blue vortex?

I suspect there is a mark up, oh well might help some people out.

Given how excited I just got, I could have seriously overspent on Amazon.

And I do rather like the swedish food market - soft salt liquorice nomnomnom

I'm going to go against the grain and say I actually enjoy going to IKEA and wandering round the market hall, but I am a SAHM so can get to go through the week when it's quiet. On weekends and bank holidays it's like the seventh circle of hell. I'm just waiting for DD to be old enough to go in the creche so I can get a cuppa and a cake in peace too.
