IKEA trip! (almost as good as a road trip, but usually more expensive....) Cindy M and I went to Sac yesterday to IKEA. I am adding storage to my sewing room, and she came along for the ride (not that she didn't get stuff while she was there, lol!) AJ also had a couple of items for me to pick up for him, since I was there. It was a fun day, with lots of time to meander around and get ideas for "things to do" for both of our places, lots of time to chat and catch up on the drive, etc. Lunch was disappointing - chicken salsa that was very bland and they were out of rice - not nearly as good as the salmon the last time we were there. They were very limited in menu options, were out of several items that were listed, etc. It wasn't a bad lunch, just not what we were hoping for, which was disappointing. (Yes, I tend to travel on my stomach....I was starving after all that shopping!)
I now have 4 Callax units to put together, and AJ has a couple of things. The small white box on top was the hardest thing to find - per the website, they had 18 in stock, but when I finally found the display in the Marketplace, they were all out. I checked with staff, and they suggested they were upstairs in the display area. That meant going backwards through the store (aka swimming upstream against the salmon....) all the way back through both the Marketplace and the display area. Even then, it took me three staff associates to help me find the item. It wasn't up on display, it was just one more white box on a shelf...and of course the name of it (Harvmatta) doesn't lend itself to identifying it. Luckily, the staff had at least an idea where it was....and new it was in a white box.
