AW - Got the last cribs in stock!

[trafficgirl]

I've been checking IKEA's website to see when the cribs we wanted might be in stock at the local warehouse. Yesterday I saw that they had two, so I called to place a hold on them - turns out IKEA doesn't do holds.

So after work I raced home and H & I went to IKEA and thankfully both cribs were still there - whew!  On top of that, one of their stock people said that same crib wasn't going to come back in stock until October!  I am so so glad we were able to get them last night - I would have been stressing out.

We also picked up a double dresser while we were there. Just have to figure out what to do about a glider and bookshelf and I think we've got all the furniture covered! Whew!

Yay, so glad you got them! IKEA cribs have been selling like hotcakes lately - the one we wanted as all sold out at the NYC-area IKEAs and our friend bought the crib for us in Boston where there were still some cribs left.

Good job! One huge less thing to worry about

sameoldash - I was wondering if you got yours or not. Didn't you say you were going to pick one up, or have your parents do that? And I think that was just in my local warehouse, not for all warehouses.

Good work girl! I LOVE shopping scores like this haha

FYI I got an IKEA crib too...! www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/90192924/

In the grey/brown color. It's actually really pretty and people are like omg where'd you get that?! They think it's more expensive then it is I guess.

Good job snagging those cribs! I just went to the website and told them to email me when there is an update. So thanks for the PSA!

Yeah it really is a nice crib huh?  It's so simple! 

@publius did you get it too in the end??

I wish they had an Ikea in this country. I have found nothing so far. It makes me miss living in the US.

I'm glad you were able to get the one (or rather two) you wanted. I'm sure it feels great getting that out of the way.
