IKEA is coming, IKEA is coming!

Today, I had the honor of being the first to tell the other shopgirls that IKEA is coming to Orlando. Shock, chills, goosebumps … oh, the excitement of *THE* I-K-E-A coming to our community. Yes, it appears to be true. No more trips to Atlanta, no more salavating at Plantation, FL for getting one. We, too, will be among the elite who can wake up on a Saturday morning and decide, at that very moment, to drive the short distance to IKEA. (We do love the Mall at Millenia location too.)
The shopgirls will no doubt be planning a day off for the official opening to shop and eat the IKEA meatballs (they are yummy).
Maybe we should put a countdown clock on the blog so everyone can anticipate the big day.

Thanks to shopgirl_alicia for letting us know of this breaking news. I will kiss the ground that IKEA is built on. Oh oh, better yet, I will take a day off once it opens! Who’s with me?!?

I’ve been to IKEA twice, filling up my SUV to capacity on my last trip with quality modern furniture at affordable prices. To go from a seven-hour drive to our current nearest store to a 15-minute quick trip … I’m SO THERE! (Although I foresee a weekend road trip to South Florida next summer when the Sunrise IKEA opens.)
