A nice sofa


Look at this sofa. I can totally imagine it in my apartment.... until I see the price. it's more than $1k. What the hell? $1k can buy 1/2 of what I need in Ikea. And no I did not dedicate a precious Sunday to window shop furniture.


I passed by a row of furniture shops on my way to foot reflexology + massage in Nunawading. Got curious and went in to check out some prices. All it does was just to reaffirm my decision to buy it all in Ikea...or second hand from Gum tree.

I wonder how Ikea can price it so low? Are they using really crap material? Do I expect my furniture to break after 5 years? Told Aunty about my encounter and she immediately know what shop I am talking about. Is there anything that she doesn't know? Or is it the number of years she's been staying here? Comparatively I feel like I don't know anything besides the obvious.

At least I know I don't need to visit any furniture shop. Nothing beats Ikea.
