Going to IKEA this morning, what are your must haves

[EdgesWedges]

Just that really! My list so far is pots and glasses

Wrapping paper

Meatballs and the chocolate with hazelnuts in. I buy a gazillion bars of the chocolate when I go to IKEA as I never know when I'll be there again.

Bag clips, scissors, coat hangers.

Picture frames
Make sure you measure up any pictures requiring frames before you go

The resealable food bags. Colour coded according to size.
They're much thicker than supermarket bags. DS uses a yellow one for his packed lunch and it lasts a whole half term.

One of the Vardagen carafes with a lid to go in the fridge door. Fill it with iced coffee/iced tea through the summer, nicer and cheaper than Starbucks.

Potato ricer!

...and pick n mix

Candles and their 365 pots and pans

We got some lovely plants the other week

They do the best freezer bags ever.
Meatballs & Daim cake without a doubt.
I really rate their cheap clothes horse, have mine 6 years and still good as new.

Yes they are by far the best freezer bags. I buy them off amazon.

Food bags definitely. We've permanently got the blue stripe, white stripe and red stripe boxes on the go and they're all useful sizes and properly reusable.

The bags of coffee. One mug of that, black, and I'm bouncing around like I'm on Speed.

And the 365+ pots and pans are the best for that price range anywhere.

My legs are killing me! Just finished

Where's your bag of tealights and a random pot plant?

They've recently started selling a range of glass dishes in various shapes and sizes with silicone or bamboo lids, ideal for storing leftovers and batch cooking - they're a good alternative to plastic tubs.

Free filter coffee if you are a ikea family member

Their plastic plates/cups/cutlery
Great for weaning, picnics or i use their yellow blue orange bowls for my weetabix

Hope you got freezer bags!

They do some really nice cotton duvet covers, they single ones are £25 each ( cheaper ones are cotton but a bit rough feeling still) but these are amazingly smooth and so cool and fresh feeling.

Jam. The cloudberry jam is amazing and so is the lingonberry.

Cheese, especially the blue cheese.

Seaweed “caviar” to serve on top of fish or Philadelphia on toast.

Mini Daim bars.

Basically the entire contents of the Swedish Food Market
