What is better Big or Small

[said]

I have a pet hate! I absolutely dislike wasting time walking up and down lengthy aisles to purchase necessary items of shopping - I much prefer going to a small outlet and picking up exactly what I want and then leaving. One particular furniture store leaves me so annoyed and frustrated, I am highly attempted to break out through its fire doors just to get out of the store. In fact, I only called in the once and I am never going back again. One way in and one way out, and one is forced to walk the whole way around the overstocked, overheated, claustrophobic store without any short ways out! I go for a small shop every time. Does anyone else feel this way?

That must be Ikea then - I agree, terrible place!

IKEA is absolutely dreadful

The locations in the warehouse are all published on their website so there is no actual need to go through the "showroom" unless you want to see it in person. Deliveries take 2 weeks from their website as well, id rather pay the slightly inflated price and buy it from eBay.

We have broke the system in Ikea.

Just ask a member of staff the shortest route to wherever.
They are always happy to reveal their hidden exits off the tourist route.

Handy to know - but I will not be going there again. I like to feel free when shopping around - not like a prisoner of war which it seems like at Ikea.

I've only ever been once and vowed never to go again, granted it was a Bank Holiday Monday so I'm told it was my own fault!

Has is something to do with straight lines and fear of kitchen method?

I am ok until I get to the flat pack collection area.

Sucker!

The best time to visit is when the young and trendy are at work.
Definitely not a sunday or BH weekend.

We went last week.
It is a tradition in our house the children build and decorate a gingerbread house on Christmas Eve.
Ikea produces the best on offer.

We were in and out fastest ever.
The journey made worthwhile by an M&S nearby plus dinner at Five Guys.

Either your choice of tense in your writing is poor or you've been there more than once.

Whoops! Apologies - went to one in Canada and one in the UK. Sufficient to last a life time!
