April Fools Day - Nice One Ikea!

Today is April Fools, and it's been a while since I've been caught by a joke, so hats off to Ikea.

Reading the paper today I saw this ad:

I thought who the hell would buy that?  Gees if we put our pug in that he'd be jumping out onto the table in a heartbeat.  Then turned the page and thought nothing more of it. 

Just heard on radio a commentator bagging the hell out of a caller who'd been sucked in by it.  Ooooops!

Till next time,

  1. I didn't hear about this April Fools Day joke until I heard people talking about being caught out by the joke.... I know that I would have thought what a waste of money and such a silly item to buy your dog... So I guess I would have been caught out too.

  2. Hahahahahah! Yeah, I don't think I would want dogs sitting up at the table and eating with me, no matter how much you love your pups! Great joke - made even greater by the fact that someone "bought it".

    Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier & for your comment on Eat Pray Love. Just wondering if you had read my review of it - http://scathingweekly.blogspot.com/2011/01/book-review-eat-pray-love-committed.html I have to agree with all of the comments you make - and your point about "Committed" made me chuckle :D

  4. Hi Scather - the sad thing is there are some people who frequent the vet our pug does, who I'm sure rushed to Ikea to buy one for their beloved mutt! Shall venture over to read your review, thanks for stopping by :)
