We all know that it almost happened, and it was a huge disappointment when it didn’t. How can the capital of North Carolina not have an IKEA? Not to mention that Raleigh/Durham has several major universities and is developing at an exponential rate? I think it’s time we let the IKEA leadership know that we are ready to have the familiar blue and yellow structure nearby. We are ready for the meatballs and affordable furniture and all the other Swedish offerings! Tack!
