I have been trying to outfit our new house...gave most of our old furniture to GoodWill or the kids took it for their college apartments, so we had to furnish pretty much a whole house. I found myself at IKEA, and they had friendly young people working an in-store kiosk with credit card offers. I had found a couple of dressers, and figured, what the heck, let's take a shot. The offer was $25 off the first order and free shipping through the nd of August. They have the world's dumbest cash-back deal, with really short times before it expires, but the kid at the kiosk suggested buying gift cards with it, since they don't expire. Anyway, got on my phone, did an app, instant $6000 approval.
The poor woman working the checkout had never tried to manually enter a newly-minted IKEA CC #, so a manager had to be called, but it all went smoothly after that.
I can't tell you how sore my back is from kneeling on the floor, assembling dressers...
