I love IKEA. The cafeteria is good - especially with a family card at breakfast. The furniture is a good price for what it is and I never feel ripped off.
Just watch out for small items and accessories - these are almost always over priced. Wallplugs are a good example of something that you will pick up in IKEA so that you can install your new shelves as soon as you get home. They are good quality but will cost you significantly more than, say, B&Q.
Whilst IKEA seems to make their money on the small accessories there are exceptions. For example, batteries and light bulbs are always competitively priced.
The moral of the story is that if you are on a tight budget then, one way or the other, don't expect to leave IKEA within it...
