Shopping for love

Here's an interesting NY Times piece about how more couples are having date night at Ikea.

Why? Hello...doesn't anyone else get turned on by those unpronounceable Swedish furniture names?

The article says married people are spending Friday nights at Ikea because the international home products store has free childcare.

I think unmarried couples could be just as easily convinced to hit the giant store for a date.

It has the visual appeal that makes going to Lowe's together kind of hot. Same for Sam's Club and Costco.

Nothing says "I love you" like agreeing to share 172 rolls of toilet paper. You know, because it's a good deal.
