Ikea

You can now buy a house on Isle 3. Called Boklok, they are energy efficient, cheap, and, of course, prefab. Excellent. (Let's hope they don't fall apart in 5 years).

Some Ikea facts:
10% of Europeans are likely conceived on an Ikea bed.

3 people were crushed to death when the Saudi Arabian store opened its doors for the first time.

Ikea has opened a free hotel for those who want to shop the next day. Free meals and you can take the sheets home too. What will stop the homeless from moving in??
