The best place to find a budget friendly collection to shop is from IKEA. It is a far best place to buy stylish and affordable furniture. It has everything right from kitchen must-haves to home organization decor with affordable prices.
Whenever you visit a nearby store they always have trending collection and offers that might interest you. They always provide you with monthly offers or occasional offers that you can’t resist.
I have visited to one of the location of Ikea in Navi Mumbai. So, I’m going to share my experience with you and help you to find the budget friendly things to purchase for your home decor.
Things to Remember Before Visiting
For the newbies it becomes difficult to navigate the maize-like aisles, so the staff provide you with the map for the direction. You should visit there on weekdays, as there would be no rush while shopping. If you want to visit during weekends, do visit the Ikea restaurant on the right of the first floor(L-2). It will give you energy boost for shopping as there is a long queue during weekends. That will save your little time.
Entrance to IKEA
This is my first experience in ikea. Post Pandemic the norms are back to normal as you don’t need to book any appointment. Do visit with your private vechicle and if you are planning to visit by auto-rickshaw then do get down at gate no- 3, as autos are not allowed inside the vicinity. Just follow the store maps as it would be easy for navigation. On left side of Level 2 there is home decor and on right you have shortcut towards restaurant. At L-1 you can find the cafeteria section in front of billing counter.
