This week Mandi and I went to the ultimate Recession store - Ikea. It was epic. So epic that we decided to film it. We went Scorsese-styles all over it. Behold the world premiere of “9 Tips On How To Survive A Trip To Ikea Without Killing Yourself.”

Check out the full vid. If you’re the impatient type (or just want shorter versions to send to your friends… because I’m sure you will) we’ve also broken it down into a three-part miniseries. We’re just nice like that.

(P.S. Mandi swears like a sailor, it’s really embarrassing. So there are a couple of NSFW words in here. If you work someplace uptight, listen with your headphones in.)
