Default damn ikea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i don't know if this shuld be a post or a post

bought one of them billy bookcases from there a while back and wanted to get soem extra shelves to go with it
"don't worry sir, we hav a discount section where you can pick them up from" no worries, and i found 1, the wrong colour but at a £1 coldn't go wrong really as they ddin't sell them seperatly at the time
so now i've gone back and looked to find some more as i need another one
what what have they done?
stopped selling them shelves int he discount section
and the individual shelves are now £10

each

i can buy the whole bloody shelve unit, with 5 shelves plus the carcass for £49

I hate Ikea. Everytime the wife drags me there for something small I end up spending a lot more than planned.

but it all looks so cool bolted together on the sop floor with all the lights etc
then you have to figure out how to manhandle it out the store because your other half is too delicate to lift up more than a small bag of useless shit yuo've aculimated on teh way to the check outs

Doji,

Billys used to be £ 35.00 complete.

If they are still that cheap what you do (as I did) is buy and extra complete Billy and hey presto 7 x spare shelves for £ 35.00

And if you cut the unwanted uprights down to shef size, thats another 6 more shelves
