No trip to Chicago would be complete without a visit to IKEA - even if we are living in another country for six months and have absolutely no use for the majority of their products - you still have to go.
Since this is also something you NEVER do on a weekend, we stopped by IKEA on our way to Mike and Kristi's. Which was a bonus, since they have this barbaric job that expects them to work until 5 o'clock on Fridays.
Same great place, same crazy low prices. Fortunately we didn't walk out with a sofa or something crazy like that.
