most furniture stores suck. ikea quality for more than ikea prices. especially if you don't plan on having the items for more than a few years it's so dumb to not just shop at ikea. i love ikea, disrupting the furniture industry

Sorry I'm late for self-checkout chat. Shaggar was right. Self-checkout is pretty goddamned simple and a quick alternative to waiting behind Quaneesha O'Foodstamp while she juggles six different cards, a checkbook, and two or three screaming Little Lebowski Urban Achievers to pay for her 12-pack of keystone. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)
