Stocking up on cute (and cheap)

With just 72 hrs left before we head for

It was time to head here:


A rainy Sunday brought IKEA shoppers out in droves.



Trying to find cute AND affordable is oh so easy at IKEA.
It is way too tempting to put anything and everything in your oversized cart.

Taylor and Jim were deep in discussions throughout the store--

...getting that last minute advice from her Dad.


We scored some IKEA bargains for her dorm room....

This shelf for $15
This rug for $19..and it's huge.




A couple of cute pillows for 3.99 ea

And an adorable little beside lamp for $9.99

But we had to also get the IKEA bargain of the century.
Not really a bargain in that it's always available...and so practical and cheap I had to buy two sets once.



Drum roll, please...


Bag clips for $2.99.
THIRTY of them.
oh yeah.

She's ready for college now that she has these bag clips.

I have never been to IKEA! Sounds like a trip is in order. At least for the bag clips. :)
