Ikea the Company:
"The IKEA story began in 1943 in the small village of Agunnaryd in Sweden, when its founder Ingvar Kamprad was just 17."
"IKEA offers a wide range of well-designed, functional home furnishing products at prices so low that as many people as possible can afford them. This is the idea at the heart of everything IKEA does, from product development and purchases to how we sell our products in IKEA stores globally".

hey, im from myrtle beach too, and was actually thinking of going too, but what kind of events do they have for the grand opening?? is it worth it to go do you know?? hmm.. i may just have to find a tent and have an adventure too lol!
Hi sappy! Thanks for reading my blog. Grand openings are usually a big ole party. I have personally never been to one but I can tell you there is always live entertainment, local celebrities and giveaways.
If you google videos you can see footage other Ikea shoppers have recorded themselves.
I REALLY want to go . . . if you do camp out & I get there don't be shy & say hello. You probably won't be able to miss me . . . that is what my tent looks like.
