I spent most of last week in the twin cities. Sadly we didn’t travel in the MINI but the MINI probably would not have held the load of stuff we scored at IKEA. Man that place was big! Needless to say we had never set foot in an IKEA store before and even though there’s nothing earth shattering about the products at IKEA, there’s nothing like that first experience in one of those big blue and yellow buildings.
Anyway, while filling up at a gas station in Minneapolis we spied the following MINI adverts above the gas pumps. I know DB posted one of these adverts from a gas pump on the left coast but I had yet to see any in the midwest.
So here they are:
these are pretty funny. glad to hear the IKEA trip was successful…good call on not taking the mini. they really do have tons of stuff there.

Posted by: corrine on May 31, 2005 04:56 PMikea is the best. i try to visit at least once a year to the one in schaumburg (suburb of chicago) - it rocks. i bet the guy in the gas station was wondering why you were running around snapping photos of the mini adverts…. !
