Have You Checked out the Ikea 2011 Catalog Yet?

Last week, I got my copy of the 2011 IKEA catalog in the mail. Along with tax rebates and new shoes, the annual catalog is probably on my top 20 list of things I like to get in the mail. And I especially like to look for the NEW! and LOWER PRICE! call outs.
