Dear Husband: I'm writing you this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you for good. I've been a good woman to you for seven years and I have nothing to show for it. These last two weeks have been hell. Your boss called to tell me that you had quit your job today and that was the last straw. Last week, you came home and didn't notice that I had gotten my hair and nails done, cooked your favorite meal and even wore a brand new negligee. You came home and ate in two minutes, and went straight to sleep after watching the game. You don't tell me you love me anymore, you don't touch me or anything. Either you're cheating or you don't love me anymore, whatever the case is, I'm gone. P.S. If you're trying to find me, don't. Your BROTHER and I are moving away to West Virginia together! Have a great life! Your Ex-wife Dear Ex-wife: Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's true that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good woman is a far cry from what you've been. I watch sports so much to try to drown out your constant nagging. Too bad that doesn't work. I did notice when you cut off all of your hair last week, the first thing that came to mind was "You look just like a man!" My mother raised me to not say anything if you can't say anything nice. When you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY BROTHER, because I stopped eating pork seven years ago. I went to sleep on you when you had on that new negligee because the price tag was still on it. I prayed that it was a coincidence that my brother had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that morning and your negligee was $49.99. After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out. So when I discovered that I had hit the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to Jamaica. But when I got home you were gone. Everything happens for a reason I guess. I hope you have the filling life you always wanted. My lawyer said, with your letter that you wrote, you won't get a dime from me. So take care. P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this but Carl, my brother was born Carla. I hope that's not a problem. Signed, Rich and Free

Jakabedy, We had friends who used that guys service, too, and they were pleased. I wish that were still an option. Dh will actually be in Denver for a wedding 2 weeks for now. Unfortunately, our truck does not have functioning A/C and so he will be travelling in a Corolla with 2 teenagers, which would make fitting the tall Billy in the car rather unwelcome. The other downside of Ikea is the awareness factor. When you are aware of some of their products and how well they would suit the bill, it makes it that much more difficult to pay more for Sauder that would be much less functional. Many of their products are just what I need for my kids desks, etc.

I got 20% off (tiered, based on amount only) in summer 2014. We did happen to buy one appliance, a dishwasher, but it wasn't required to get the full discount. It was also the last year before they switched from Akurum to Sektion, which may have had a lot to do with it. I haven't watched *every* sale since then, but I have been pretty aware of most of them, and have purchased during sales twice in the last two years, since we moved to our new house and started renovating. It has maybe hit 20% once, but if it did, it was with gift cards, not an instant discount. And I'm not totally sure it did, to be honest. I think 15% is about as high as they seem to be going now. No appliance purchases have been required in the sales I purchased, though. (Summer 2017, and again in fall 2017, when we got a retroactive price adjustment for quartz countertops we purchased in Sept.) We purchased more for our final project just a couple of weeks ago, and will be hitting them up for another price adjustment as soon as the sale starts. I'm in the States.

Char @ Scherr's Speaking as someone who has looked at your product very closely and who has thought about using your line of doors for IKEA boxes, what would be extremely helpful for me would be if in each of the door styles in the various materials you could just have a basic price comparison listing. That way, for example, I would be able to think pricewise do I want laminate or painted or which of the real real wood species. So, under each type of material and style of door you could have a chart stating the price of a 15" x 30" door, a 12" x 24" door etc. A customer could then quickly make some decisions about which style, finish and material would most closely fit her budget. I think all of us realize that it would be way too difficult to have every price for every possible custom permutation laid out. I would also think that you could save a lot of staff time that is currently spent just answering simple customer inquiries about pricing in general.
