We all love Swedish housewares chain IKEA for their reliable selection of TISDAGs and RÅSKOGs, and whenever I’m out shopping for a new SLÄT I like to stop by the cafeteria for their 99 yen (US$1) breakfast.
But for a limited time IKEA is lowering the price of their ultra-cheap “Morning Plate” breakfast right down to 0 yen (US$0).
From 23 March to 31 March at the Funabashi, Kobe, Misato, Fukuoka, Yokohama, and Osaka locations free Morning Plates will be offered. A Morning Plate consists of scrambled eggs, strip of bacon, and potatoes with a splurt of ketchup.
Breakfast is served until 11:00 a.m. every morning and free Morning Plates are limited to one per person.
I tell ya, I’m tempted to break my TROJKA just for an excuse to go down and get some free grub.
