Today is like the 3rd time that we went to IKEA and came back empty handed...each time we go, we say that we need to get this or that. In the end...we still left empty-handed.
Today, we were supposed to buy:-
1. Basin mirror
2. Dining table + chairs
3, Plastic container for toothbrush and paste
& also check out the curtains selection.
Basin mirror
None of suitable size...all too big for our little area...in the end, we went to a neighbourhood shop at Alexandra Village. Nice and cheap.

Business Hours: 9.30am to 8pm.
How I came to know of this place? Passed by while having lunch...
Dining Table + chairs
We were informed by IKEA staff that we have to order it only when we want to purchase it or only 3 days in advance if we require delivery. So we have to go back 3 days before our planned delivery date.
Plastic container
Can't seem to find the one which mum bought. :(
Curtains
LP who were also doing renovation for their place bot IKEA curtains for their place due to "budget constraints". I also liked IKEA curtains, but GM didn't believe in wasting time to sew our own curtains or if we buy ready-made ones....they won't have the exact fit for our window size...so we had our curtains tailor-made.
We ordered our curtains at
Kar Bee Company
Blk 449 Clementi Ave 3 #01-249
Tel: 6777 8115

Opening Hours: 10:30 am to 7:45pm
We chose them cause we liked their curtains selection...and also they were cheaper than the place that quoted us at Tanjong Katong...and definitely closer to our place.
How I came to know of this place? This store has been there since as long as I remember...but somehow, no one I know have used them before...
I originally wanted this for my utility room windows...
However, as the size doesn't seem to fit, I had to pass on it.
