The early bird gets the worm
Ask any seasoned IKEA shopper when the best time to shop is, and they’ll most likely give you a different answer. Some say head over to IKEA before lunch while others claim the best time to shop is right before closing time. But one former employee has offered their two cents to settle the debate once and for all.
Apparently, the objectively best time to shop at IKEA is 30 to 45 minutes after they open their doors. You can avoid large crowds, linger around to choose what items you like, will receive the full attention of their helpful staff, and exit the store with all of your goodies in a timely fashion.
