IKEA - what's good?

[oldfarmgirl]

Got a rare child free few hours tomorrow to mooch around IKEA. Don't really need any furniture, but always love a storage solution. Apart from tealights etc what other household gems have they got....I'm making a list!!

Their rubber gloves last way longer than any others.
Those clip things for sealing open bags and packets.
Chopping boards.
Picture frames.

Oh i wish i lived nearer to Ikea. (2 hours away). Thank got for the delivery to a local DPD drop off!

Ive just ordered:

Tin opener
Tea lights
Rubber gloves
Shelves
Scissors
Sock/knicker airers

On Thursday, my son picked up a dinosaur that folds back into an egg. He absolutely loves it.

I doubt that's the kind of thing you're after, though.

Their fekjas!

@oldfarmgirl Don’t forget a coffee and a slice of Daim cake in the cafe 😍 or a whole cake from the shop to take home if you’re like DH and I 🤣
I love their 50p spatulas 🙈🤣 also the clips for sealing bags 👍🏻
The “Krama” washcloths from the kids section are fab too! £3.50 for 10 🙌🏻 I use them for cleaning up DS and his high chair after meals 👍🏻

The rubber things that you put over bowls or jars insted of clingfilm.

The plastic multi coloured plates and beakers if you have toddlers or good for picnics.

Bags of frozen cinnamon buns, meatballs, lingonberry jam, gravy, gingerbread biscuits etc at the food shop.

Sandwich bags, food bag clips, kilner jars and water glasses from the market hall bit.

Meatballs- can't go to Ikea without stocking up on them.

Their houseplants are brilliant.

The plastic lunch boxes with all the little containers inside
The glass containers with snap on plastic lids

Going to be coming back with a much lighter wallet thanks for all the fab ideas.

What's a fekjas? Is it food?

The spatulas are brilliant and excellent at getting all the food out off the bowl or saucepan. Clips for food packaging are also excellent. Tea towels and surprisingly stationary (wrapping paper, nice tape or string) very handy and work well for adults and children. Their stuff is cleverly designed.

It will probably be rammed this week with uni students and their families who have just got their places confirmed after A levels.
