Anyone going to IKEA?
I really need a buddy on this one....

We want to put up wall rails on the back splash, but all of the ones we have looked at have not been what we wanted. Of course, Ikea has one... a 1000 miles away. Figures, doesn't it?

So I am offering to pay for time and send a postage-paid shipping box and labels to anyone who has an Ikea nearby and is willing to venture in and pick up three Bygel rails, some S hooks and a couple of baskets. It's a tiny errand -- the baskets and rails are $2 each, the hooks $1 a bag, but.... for me, it's a 1000 mile errand.

4. She refuses to go down there.
I don't know why -- she is busy, to be true (she's finishing up another degree, running the Mesa Masonic Lodge, and being the 22 year old that my birth forbade her...) but she's made it plain -- she will not go into the Tempe IKEA because she's just not doing it.

Asked and got shot down. (Loony woman.... )

2. You can buy online from Ikea and have it shipped.
I don't think they sell everything online, but have you checked for the things you want?

5. They don't sell the little stuff online.
And this is definitely little stuff...

Sigh.

3. I do need to make an IKEA run in the next week or so
If you are not able to order it all online, I would be happy to pick stuff up for you.

PM me if you need me to do this for you.
