why would you need to drive to ikea? do other countries not do delivery?
Delivery from my nearest IKEA warehouse which is ~70km away in a completely different city costs 50 EUR, or 30 if you join "IKEA family"
Because driving to Ikea means you can take stuff with you without paying for delivery. Plus sometimes we just wanna walk through the store and that means either going by car or taking two busses.
okay so you don't have to drive there at all, you just choose to do so.
You don't buy furniture at Ikea because you're rich. The delivery fee is quite high for some people. Plus sometimes you want/need something the same day. And it makes sense to look at the stuff IRL as opposed to ordering from the website. IKEA is one of the things that actually make sense to drive to.
