Surprise I'm bringing IKEA back for 2023!! I found some awesome finds (a lot are under $5!!) If you enjoyed this video, please give it a THUMBS UP as it really helps my channel 👇Should I make more IKEA videos?
I do love IKEA videos! And I also brush my teeth in the shower.. always have. Because I'm guaranteed to have a toothpaste spot on my shirt. 😂 Maybe it's just me being messy Marvin?!
Yes absolutely make more ikea videos for me it’s not close so it’s nice to see some of the deals. I have to say please do more from the food market they have great items there like the chocolate and the almond cake diam both delicious. The lingonberry jam and the orange elderflower marmalade is amazing and let’s not forget the chocolate bars. Also not sure if they still do it but if you bought all the items from the Swedish meatball meal they gave you a discount. I could go on I drive a hour just for the food because I can’t find it anywhere else.
I would definitely enjoy seeing IKEA videos! I really enjoyed this video, and a few things really caught my attention - like that cleaning bucket and caddy, and that laundry bag that was sold out! I would definitely try those meatballs - I'll bet they're delicious! Thanks for this "treat" of a video, Matt! You and your family have a great day! (oh, and no, I never brush my teeth in the shower. Just a personal preference).
You are so friendly and upbeat, and I love that you point out great deals, but are also honest and sometimes tell us when a deal is not the best deal. When I get a text saying "the deal guy" has a new video, it's always a bright spot in my day.
I love to have them in my vehicle for food and water for my doggo but it’s super convenient when I want to give my doggo a treat from a restaurant or whatever and instead of the food being dumped on the seat and making a mess I just put it in collapsible bowl! They can play double duty as a little garbage bin as well should you ever need to wash hands or paws they’re an awesome little sink lol I’m glad I’m not alone in finding clever repurpose for items because sometimes I feel like I’m a weirdo but if the clown nose fits 😂
Just as a heads up - Those shoe trays are also great as watering trays, when you have a collection of plants, by the door, a window, or on indoor rack system (think mirco-greens, lettuce, seedlings for spring) -- helps keep the floor or other spaces dry
Matt, i dont have an Ikea anywhere near me but I'm glad i watched anyway. As someone who has suffered from depression periodically i appreciate it when someone of your stature and with such a large following discusses their own experiences with mental health. It does wonders to de-stigmatize the struggle. Thank you.
Dear Matt, You are a a very special man. You provide a much needed, and now poorly copied I might add, service to people when you show them how they can get the best deals. Recently, when when began to promote mental assistance by speaking about how much it also helped you during a time of high stress and anxiety, well, that speaks volumes about your character and self esteem. I am sure it has convinced many people to reach out and get help. I commend for being so candid. You are a true gentleman and a joy to watch. Best to you, Daria and your children.
The 99 cent blue IKEA bag is perfect for your trip to ALDI. Nice and wide, and it carries a lot (but careful, it can get heavy because you can fit so much in it) home
We keep ours in the trunk, and then just pack our stuff in there from the cart at IKEA. No more boxes! And we don’t have to hold up the checkout line, either.
We have the cleaning bucket and caddy, but we use it as a garden tool caddy. We use the bottom half for garden gloves and transplanting spades, and the top half for pruners, weeders. What I like about IKEA products is that they can be repurposed.
Also, that skinny 3-tiered shelving unit would be great to fill up the space between washers and dryers or the wall in a laundry room . Keep your detergents on the top shelf and dryer sheets, etc on the lower ones. ✅
Ok but that salad spinner is great for spinning the water out of hand washed items. I used to use it for my masks during shutdown and it was a game changer.
First congrats on your sponsor Betterhelp, they are fantastic and I'm glad anyone can get help there. Second, thank goodness you go into IKEA, I'm afraid I'll never find my way out!! lol! Great video, keep on truckin my friend.
I love brushing my teeth in the shower lol. Uses the time conditioner is sitting, allows me to spend more time in the hot water, no worry about getting toothpaste on my hair or clothes, and I dont have to rinse out the sink!
My husband has always brushed his teeth in the shower, and I used to think it was disgusting. Realizing that the same water that comes out of the sink is the same water that comes out of the shower as well as the toilet. I finally decided to start brushing my teeth in the shower once I brought toothbrush caddies. It definitely save me from having to clean toothpaste out of the sink in the mornings, especially when I already have to clean the tub everyday.
The silver plant pots are what all our teachers put names on and use for kids pencils/ textas in class, and the plastic waste paper bins are Fantastic to make into pot plants, either as an outer pot, or with a few holes in the bottom as the actual pots.
9:22 It's actually not for wrapping paper and will not fit most wrapping paper tubes. That is probably a part of the Mala art line and fits the coloring page roll shown or IKEAs plain drawing roll that is good for any kids play room. My personal favorite in the Mala line is the portable drawing pad, which is great for travel. They also have a small set of colored pencils which are watercolor compatible so you can draw with them and then go over them with a paintbrush with water.
The IKEA bags are a great bag for shopping at ALDI! They have two types: One that is about the size of a paper grocery bag and one that is twice that size. I usually use the small one to carry my soda water bottles and the larger one to pack at least one week's worth of groceries. I have to stay away from IKEA...especially the kitchen area...I end up wanting everything! The last time I moved apartments I didn't take any of my old, cheap furniture. Instead I went to IKEA and shopped for everything I needed and for $150 extra they delivered it to my new apartment for me. They even put the boxes in the rooms I wanted (living room stuff in the living room and bedroom stuff in the bedroom). It was well worth the expense. As always, loved the video. Mark
I love IKEA! My husband and I go to see what we “cant live without” on a regular basis and always buy the meatballs! Thanks for the video Matt, this was fun!
I can think of no better ambassador for BetterHelp than you, Matt. You are so caring and kind that....this pairing of content creator/sponsor is *chef's kiss* ! Oh, and the deals today are great.
Thank you so much for your support Cindy! As you know I don't do many sponsorships on this channel, so because I have honestly used BetterHelp in the past, it was an easy one to say yes to!
@@thedealguyplease, love you Matt, and live advocating for mental health. You can do better than Better Help. Having people on their board who advocate hallucinogenics as therapy? Nope.
@@GraceCase. I’m trying to understand why you think using a drug to help someone who is suffering so tremendously with anxiety, PTSD, etc., why that would be bad. That you have never suffered from such things. For that if it is so, be very grateful.. people who have gone to war for the United States, and serve time as people have struggled, and many of them have committed suicide. If there is a way to help them, I am 100% for all of it. No matter what the help is, if it helps, I’m for it. ARTICLE: 2021 Feb 3 “Hallucinogens in Mental Health: Preclinical and Clinical Studies on LSD, Psilocybin, MDMA, and Ketamine Abstract A revamped interest in the study of hallucinogens has recently emerged, especially with regard to their potential application in the treatment of psychiatric disorders. In the last decade, a plethora of preclinical and clinical studies have confirmed the efficacy of ketamine in the treatment of depression. More recently, emerging evidence has pointed out the potential therapeutic properties of psilocybin and LSD, as well as their ability to modulate functional brain connectivity. Moreover, MDMA, a compound belonging to the family of entactogens, has been demonstrated to be useful to treat post-traumatic stress disorders. In this review, the pharmacology of hallucinogenic compounds is summarized by underscoring the differences between psychedelic and nonpsychedelic hallucinogens as well as entactogens, and their behavioral effects in both animals and humans are described. Together, these data substantiate the potentials of these compounds in treating mental diseases.” Keywords: hallucinogens, psychedelics, LSD, psilocybin, ketamine, MDMA Link: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7880300/
@@GraceCase. That would probably be exactly why I like.Better Health. It seems they mostly out all the options if those are some of them. I appreciate that. There’s too much mental health suffering in these United States. If you don’t care for those drugs, you certainly don’t have to take them, but you shouldn’t put your views on someone else’s healthcare/mental health care. Healthcare should always be between a patient and their doctor. Make it a great day !❤✌🏻
I love IKEA! I bought that laundry bag about 5 years ago for a buck.. still have it!! (cute comment regarding the shopping carts; and that is another reason why I use my walker). Love all of your videos. My regards to your wife and kiddies, and u !
Thanks so much for covering IKEA!!! The quality is nearly always very high for the price, and is a great place to shop. I do recommend grabbing a store map and going on the weekdays if you can because the stores are huge, and can be overwhelming. The map shows you the “shortcuts” you can take if you want to pass quickly from one section to another, instead of doing the “entire path.” I have the salad spinner from probably 10+ years ago, it still works great, note: it is pretty small, great for one or two people. Their organization/storage products are excellent and very well priced. Also, their silverware is really nice, lasts and looks much more expensive than it is! (The kids section is a hidden gem for finding things for “grown ups”.) The only product I wouldn’t recommend at all is their couch/decorative pillows (the ones that use the amazing selection of shams to cover them) unless they’ve changed in the past year or so, if they have feathers, they stink and nothing gets the funk out. The stuffed/poly fill ones are fine.
@@goconnor0304 Excellent idea! (I think it’s on the map…but there’s also a brochure that lists the exact aisle/section of specific things, and I’ll circle the sections I need to go to, and plot out my route, lol, especially if I don’t want to be in there all day.)
Reminds me of the episode I saw the other night of the Dick van Dyke Show (over-the-air-TV has lots of classic shows) where they bought a set of pillows that had that same chicken-funk smell so bad, they took the seller to court!
@@thedealguy You’re welcome! I do love IKEA and Costco, not only for good prices for quality items, but that they also treat their workers well, offer benefits, and are good employers and citizens of the towns they’re in. I’m glad I live now where I don’t have to drive 90 minutes to get to IKEA, but I did it happily back in the day. (It helps that I like the Scandinavian style for decor, but there are lots of things that would fit into most anyone’s style.) Thanks for covering IKEA again, and always for your Costco and Aldi videos! I can trust your review and haven’t been steered wrong in the past!
I'd much rather have the Black Ikea Hanger 10 pack for $1.99. They're standard size but thinner to allow for more storage in the closet! I've replaced every hanger in our house for a family of 4 for around $40!
Matt, I’ve had a set of 6 of those thin IKEA wine glasses for over 15 years now and they have held up beautifully; and I don’t baby them either (even running them through the dishwasher at least once a week).
Thanks Matt! I’ve never been inside IKEA although there’s one down the street. 😂 At 60, I just don’t need anything for the house. Just house repairs! LOL! Always a pleasure to watch no matter where you are! God bless.
I like that you did my favorite store IKEA. I usually shop online because the closest one is three and a half hours away and if I go there then that means I will feel guilty if I don't go visit my family. I use the Ikea bags when we go to the mailbox because I can just hook that short inner handle on the hook on the mailbox door and just reach in and scoop everything into the bag. Service dog carries it back to the house for me.
The lingonberry jam is an Ikea must imo. Way better than cranberry at Thanksgiving, anytime on turkey sandwiches, or with other meat dishes, incl Ikea meatballs. 😋👩🍳🍽
I literally yell out to my entire household when you post a video, and we drop whatever we're doing and run to the Roku to watch. Thanks for another great video!!!!!!!! :)
Thanks for the video! About 80% of my home is Ikea...I love it there. Oh and side note...that's not a gift wrapping station, it's for kids to use for art :) I bought one for my niece :) ....Love you too!
the vesken 3 tier trolley used to be $9.99 -12.99 ~2.5 years in IKEA Canada. Black is new option. I used on for cleaning supplies and another for 12cm plant pots (holes are great for drainage)
When it comes to wine glasses, thinner is better. The Dollar Store glasses are not better quality because they're thicker. It's actually the exact opposite. @11:01
The shoe tray works great for pet dishes, too. The waste baskets make great plant pots. Use as an outer pot, or add holes with a drill and use outdoors. I have some ive been using outside for 3 or 4 years, and they have held up great.
We are fortunate to have an IKEA near us. However, last time I was there by myself, I got lost in the maze of displays and somehow got turned around. I was traveling backwards I guess because I looked down on the floor, and the arrows were pointing the opposite direction of where I was going. I think had been going around in circles for a while. I kind of still have PTSD about it, and don’t want to return, even though I love their stuff. I felt like I was being held captive in a store! I really like the map idea that somebody gave earlier in the comments. After all this ordeal, a friend of mine told me “well you don’t even have to go upstairs to the displays. You can just short cut your way through and just shop in the downstairs bin area. “ 😅
Normally, I don't shop IKEA because usually you have to put everything together and the stuff is pricey but in today's video, I might reconsider. You had a lot of affordable items. I especially liked your video today because you took a little longer on the items by giving us ideas on how to use them and also comparing them to the cheapest prices by telling us where to get them. I also like when you tell us how you or Daria use the items as it give us new ideas. And, I also love your videos more now, because you slowed it down a bit to describe the items. I like your quirky puns about having only 1 drawer. Thank you for taking the time in making your videos more personal. I hope I spelled your wife's name correctly.
We have four of the $16 plastic shelving sets. They are totally modular so you can mix and match to build different sizes. We did two sets with three shelves in showers, and took the extras and did a taller one in a closet.
I can vouch for the quality of the wood hangers. I've had them in our front hall closet for 20 years. I use space-saver flocked hangers throughout the rest of the house, but for coats and jackets, nothing beats IKEA wood hangers.
9:25 There is a reason why those carts move on their own. The carts are possessed by the spirits of those who got lost in an IKEA. To this day, the carts will try to escape the store. But the real question is ... what happened to their bodies? Well, you'll just have to try the iconic IKEA meatballs to find out. Mwa-ha-ha-ha
I love to brush my teeth in the shower too! BTW those stem glasses are much lighter than the dollar store ones. So it makes them look better in quality.
They are significantly better quality. I’ve had a set of 6 for over 15 years and haven’t broken one yet (and they get used at least once or twice every week).
Matt! Great content as always! I love the way you do your videos! So happy and exuberant! I’m beginning to think you could sell anything to a person just because of your sweet personality! Blessings always to you and your family! ❤️✝️
The Baggmuck shoe tray saves me a lot of grief by being the holder of my cat boxes! I have one under each tray, and it saves my carpet...and their lives...when they hang their little hineys out the doorway and do their business! Plus it catches a lot of the litter they track, so it's a win-win for me!
Great IKEA products review! I knew the iconic bag is a universal favorite with nomadic YTers I follow in a variety of lifestyles around the world: RVers, pet parents, feature filmmakers, artists, chefs, etc. My fave this episode is the all-in-one cleaning caddy w drainage that perches on its mop bucket lip. Who could pass that up? All it needs is a companion set of collapsible handle cleaning brushes, brooms & mops & a multipack of microfiber cloths, scrub sponges & spray bottles.
The 3 tiered plastic car with wheels (at the 0:30 mark) is not new, but it is a great find. I've had mine for nearly two years now. Mine holds extra laundry soaps/stain removers and slides in beside my washer perfectly. Save yourself $8.99 and skip the metal measuring cups at the 2:32 mark. They rust. The colander/strainer (2:38 mark) that fits over your sink is an excellent buy. I've had it for a few months and it is very durable and does a great job for straining hot pasta, etc.
@@chaosseatLike your whole body being washed in the shower doesn't also have germs, bacteria, dirt, etc. If you think about what all is being washed in the shower, as long as they spit the toothpaste close to the drain, it's not any nastier than other parts being washed in it.
You are fun to watch, thank you for sharing all these great Ikea finds. A lot of the storage racks are also useful for crafters and sewers, so you might want to mention it in your descriptions. I'm a quilter and always looking for good ways to organize fabrics by size and color. Thank you.
Inflation reflects the rising cost of shipping due to the huge increase in the cost of fuel and exorbitant rise in road and fuel taxes. Trucks and ships run on diesel and their fuel costs have more than tripled to quadrupled in the last 3 years. Shipping costs are passed on in the price of products.
I've seen the clip on baskets used in refrigerators for a little extra storage. They come in different lengths, widths and depths and some have a pull out drawer. The multipurpose storage basket and over the sink colander are thoughtful housewarming gifts. The solid bottomed shoe storage is more sanitary than the metal mesh one---anything on sole with fall through into the inside of the bottom shoe. And, yes, I also brush my teeth in the shower. My vanity is mainly for hand washing.
The thin rug could also be used as a room divider. And, i always brush my teeth on the shower. I had Bell's Palsy 10 years ago and still have the paralysis. Brushing in the shower is easier for that side.
I'm so bummed that they closed the 1 in Rego Park, NY. With no car & relying on public transportation it would take me almost 2 hours to get to Brooklyn or Hicksville & then have to lug everything home. But i do love their products. Usually great quality at good price points. When i saw that gift wrap station i immediately thought of using it in a kid's room. Find some rolls of white or brown craft paper that the kids can draw on & the walls should be safe!! Also thought that the black metal wine rack might be able to be used in the bathroom as an extra hand towel holder. Thanks due another great video Matt!! U always bring the great content to us!
Foldable tub: great for camping. Many uses. Shoe bags: great for entry to tent/camper. Slippers: to wear in home/camper. (Do people still wear shoes in houses? Eww.)Have extras for guests. The Shoe Tray!! I bought for my dogs food bowls& my cats. They are perfect. Keep floors much cleaner. Great Video!! Thank you
Ikea raised a lot of prices on a lot of things.. and not just by a 50 cents each, by ALOT. so much that its not cheaper for me to make the drive to ikea anymore.. I bought a bunk bed in 2022 for 119, I saw it in the store for $189! such a huge price increase. but. this was still a fun video to watch!
I love you videos. One thing though. On #9 the TISKIN that you show is actually the hook with suction cup. That 2 pack of hooks is $4.99. They do have TISKIN toothbrush holders for $6.99 it just wasn’t what you were showing in the video at the time. It is also just 1 toothbrush holder for $6.99. I only noticed this because I got those hooks on my last Ikea trip. 😊
I have the foldable laundry basket and the plastic shoe organizers and I love both. Love the handle on the laundry basket so I can grab it with one hand instead of two like a traditional basket. The shoe organizers have allowed me to keep my hoard of shoes organized and together, now I can buy more shoes.
Yes! More Ikea videos for sure. As for brushing my teeth in the shower, that would have to be a "No". I can say I have tried it, but there is just something about spitting standing up vs. bending at the sink (closer to the drain I guess) that isn't very appealing to me. So, for now, I'll keep my brushing to the sink. 😊 Thanks again for another great video! 👍
It is amazing how we do similar things in such different ways. I brush my teeth and wash my face at the sink. Our differences make us interesting. Love you and your family. Thanks
I have bought a couple of those storage bags and they work great. I use them for winter and summer clothes storage. Have you seen the Ikea rain hats? I bought 2 of them and have a lot of fun using them. (people ask, is that from an Ikea bag?) I am hoping Ikea will make rain coats to match. 😁
Yes, I started brushing my teeth in the shower several years ago and don't make such a mess anymore on the sink and mirror. I also use the sprayer to then water floss as well as run the pressured water across my gums after I brush. My whole mouth seems cleaner and just feels better.
OMG, I love Ikea and I can't tell you how happy I am you are covering it. Right off the bat I can say that the 3 tier cart is a deal. Even Temu has something very similar for 12.79 on sale (19.79 otherwise) and you have to wait a couple of weeks and hope it makes it through the mail journey. Another HUGE thank you, is the link to the rechargeable screwdriver - been looking for one but had no idea what to look for. From experience, the 19.99 folding chair is extremely weight sensitive so buy at your own risk - no, I did not break it, but my buddy did. Lastly, NO have NEVER brushed my teeth in the shower.
I always enjoy your videos. When talking about a product, remember that items for small spaces can also be used in an RV. RV'ers are always looking for products! Thanks!
Hi Matt!! I don't have an IKEA anywhere near me but I have ordered online with them before. I wasn't aware that they had so many things under $20!! Will have to revisit them!! Awesome video!! 😊
Yes, been brushing my teeth in the shower for many many years. Although, that hook thing you showed, I don’t see how that could hold a toothbrush, I think it’s just a hook.

The foldable tub could serve as a portable water dish for dogs.
So smart!
That’s what I thought too when I saw that too
😂I was thinking the same thing! 🐕💧
I love to have them in my vehicle for food and water for my doggo but it’s super convenient when I want to give my doggo a treat from a restaurant or whatever and instead of the food being dumped on the seat and making a mess I just put it in collapsible bowl! They can play double duty as a little garbage bin as well should you ever need to wash hands or paws they’re an awesome little sink lol I’m glad I’m not alone in finding clever repurpose for items because sometimes I feel like I’m a weirdo but if the clown nose fits 😂
Or a cute wash bowl for your kids to wash their doll clothes
I use the boot tray in my kitchen for my dog's food and water bowls
Great idea!
We did the same thing
Just as a heads up - Those shoe trays are also great as watering trays, when you have a collection of plants, by the door, a window, or on indoor rack system (think mirco-greens, lettuce, seedlings for spring) -- helps keep the floor or other spaces dry
It can go underneath a cat litter box, too.
Good tip thanks!
Love that you’re bringing ikea back mixing things up.
The Ikea bags are also great as a backyard planter if you put some holes in the bottom ( using a hot glue gun tip) and fill with compost and dirt!!
Thank you for the tip!
Brilliant 👍
That's a great idea! Thanks!
That's so genius!!!! Thank you!
I use one when weeding!
Matt, i dont have an Ikea anywhere near me but I'm glad i watched anyway. As someone who has suffered from depression periodically i appreciate it when someone of your stature and with such a large following discusses their own experiences with mental health. It does wonders to de-stigmatize the struggle. Thank you.
Totally agree. I take anxiety medication and am open about it for the same reason.

I use mine at Costco.
I use them to place the ice chest in. Catches leaks
I use them as laundry bags.
We keep ours in the trunk, and then just pack our stuff in there from the cart at IKEA. No more boxes! And we don’t have to hold up the checkout line, either.
I use ours ikea bags to haul stuff between our house and cottage.
We have the cleaning bucket and caddy, but we use it as a garden tool caddy. We use the bottom half for garden gloves and transplanting spades, and the top half for pruners, weeders. What I like about IKEA products is that they can be repurposed.
Also, that skinny 3-tiered shelving unit would be great to fill up the space between washers and dryers or the wall in a laundry room . Keep your detergents on the top shelf and dryer sheets, etc on the lower ones. ✅
I have something similar, but in metal. Liquid laundry soap is heavy, so plastic might collapse eventually.
Congratulations on your getting your own drawer. You're an inspiration to us all
I use the flexible cutting boards as a mat for my glue gun. Works well and last a long time
Great idea!
Would you recommend them as a cutting mat for fabrics?
A hot glue gun mat! I wouldn't recommend as a cutting mat, unless you double it.
@@nattamused9074
Yes they are very tough.
Ok but that salad spinner is great for spinning the water out of hand washed items. I used to use it for my masks during shutdown and it was a game changer.
I love your videos...especially when you give the bare bone facts about what isn't worth it...thank you! ❤
So glad ikea is back. Missed that place a lot.
Matt is like Better help therapy without the cost.
Agreed
Well he did just state that finding a therapist is like dating.
Which explains why I don’t have a therapist, as I don’t date 😐. Total break through 😂😅
💯😁

I would love to see a Five Below video if you have that store!😊
He’s done a few in the past. Scroll through his videos 😁
I love brushing my teeth in the shower lol. Uses the time conditioner is sitting, allows me to spend more time in the hot water, no worry about getting toothpaste on my hair or clothes, and I dont have to rinse out the sink!
Same! My husband does not brush his teeth in the shower and thinks it’s weird. But perfect for my conditioner to do it’s magic!

I’ve been brushing my teeth in the shower for over 20 years. Love it.
I have done it and yeah it’s great !
The silver plant pots are what all our teachers put names on and use for kids pencils/ textas in class, and the plastic waste paper bins are Fantastic to make into pot plants, either as an outer pot, or with a few holes in the bottom as the actual pots.

The IKEA bags are a great bag for shopping at ALDI! They have two types: One that is about the size of a paper grocery bag and one that is twice that size. I usually use the small one to carry my soda water bottles and the larger one to pack at least one week's worth of groceries.
I have to stay away from IKEA...especially the kitchen area...I end up wanting everything!
The last time I moved apartments I didn't take any of my old, cheap furniture. Instead I went to IKEA and shopped for everything I needed and for $150 extra they delivered it to my new apartment for me. They even put the boxes in the rooms I wanted (living room stuff in the living room and bedroom stuff in the bedroom). It was well worth the expense.

An Ikea finally opened in my city yesterday. This video came at the right time. Thank you!
Thank you for promoting Better Help. I haven't used them particularly but used a remote therapist and it was a great experience.
I love IKEA! My husband and I go to see what we “cant live without” on a regular basis and always buy the meatballs! Thanks for the video Matt, this was fun!
Thanks for the suggestion
those meatballs are life to my family lol
I love their meatballs and a jar of lingonberry jam!
I can think of no better ambassador for BetterHelp than you, Matt. You are so caring and kind that....this pairing of content creator/sponsor is *chef's kiss* ! Oh, and the deals today are great.
Thank you so much for your support Cindy! As you know I don't do many sponsorships on this channel, so because I have honestly used BetterHelp in the past, it was an easy one to say yes to!
@@thedealguyplease, love you Matt, and live advocating for mental health. You can do better than Better Help. Having people on their board who advocate hallucinogenics as therapy? Nope.
I agree!
@@GraceCase. I’m trying to understand why you think using a drug to help someone who is suffering so tremendously with anxiety, PTSD, etc., why that would be bad. That you have never suffered from such things. For that if it is so, be very grateful.. people who have gone to war for the United States, and serve time as people have struggled, and many of them have committed suicide. If there is a way to help them, I am 100% for all of it. No matter what the help is, if it helps, I’m for it.

“Hallucinogens in Mental Health: Preclinical and Clinical Studies on LSD, Psilocybin, MDMA, and Ketamine
Abstract
A revamped interest in the study of hallucinogens has recently emerged, especially with regard to their potential application in the treatment of psychiatric disorders. In the last decade, a plethora of preclinical and clinical studies have confirmed the efficacy of ketamine in the treatment of depression. More recently, emerging evidence has pointed out the potential therapeutic properties of psilocybin and LSD, as well as their ability to modulate functional brain connectivity. Moreover, MDMA, a compound belonging to the family of entactogens, has been demonstrated to be useful to treat post-traumatic stress disorders. In this review, the pharmacology of hallucinogenic compounds is summarized by underscoring the differences between psychedelic and nonpsychedelic hallucinogens as well as entactogens, and their behavioral effects in both animals and humans are described. Together, these data substantiate the potentials of these compounds in treating mental diseases.”
Keywords: hallucinogens, psychedelics, LSD, psilocybin, ketamine, MDMA

@@GraceCase. That would probably be exactly why I like.Better Health. It seems they mostly out all the options if those are some of them.
I appreciate that. There’s too much mental health suffering in these United States. If you don’t care for those drugs, you certainly don’t have to take them, but you shouldn’t put your views on someone else’s healthcare/mental health care.
Healthcare should always be between a patient and their doctor.
Make it a great day !❤✌🏻
A correction - when it comes to wine glasses, thinner means higher quality. Thicker glass is low quality.
I have the Tiphede rug, and I LOVE it. I can toss it into a cold wash, and it comes out beautifully. Think of it as a very affordable Ruggable.
I love IKEA! I bought that laundry bag about 5 years ago for a buck.. still have it!! (cute comment regarding the shopping carts; and that is another reason why I use my walker). Love all of your videos. My regards to your wife and kiddies, and u !
Thanks so much for covering IKEA!!! The quality is nearly always very high for the price, and is a great place to shop. I do recommend grabbing a store map and going on the weekdays if you can because the stores are huge, and can be overwhelming. The map shows you the “shortcuts” you can take if you want to pass quickly from one section to another, instead of doing the “entire path.” I have the salad spinner from probably 10+ years ago, it still works great, note: it is pretty small, great for one or two people. Their organization/storage products are excellent and very well priced. Also, their silverware is really nice, lasts and looks much more expensive than it is! (The kids section is a hidden gem for finding things for “grown ups”.) The only product I wouldn’t recommend at all is their couch/decorative pillows (the ones that use the amazing selection of shams to cover them) unless they’ve changed in the past year or so, if they have feathers, they stink and nothing gets the funk out. The stuffed/poly fill ones are fine.
You can also take a photo of the map and just use that. Put it in your notes section for other days.
@@goconnor0304 Excellent idea! (I think it’s on the map…but there’s also a brochure that lists the exact aisle/section of specific things, and I’ll circle the sections I need to go to, and plot out my route, lol, especially if I don’t want to be in there all day.)
Reminds me of the episode I saw the other night of the Dick van Dyke Show (over-the-air-TV has lots of classic shows) where they bought a set of pillows that had that same chicken-funk smell so bad, they took the seller to court!
I can tell how much you love IKEA and that makes me happy!
@@thedealguy You’re welcome! I do love IKEA and Costco, not only for good prices for quality items, but that they also treat their workers well, offer benefits, and are good employers and citizens of the towns they’re in. I’m glad I live now where I don’t have to drive 90 minutes to get to IKEA, but I did it happily back in the day. (It helps that I like the Scandinavian style for decor, but there are lots of things that would fit into most anyone’s style.) Thanks for covering IKEA again, and always for your Costco and Aldi videos! I can trust your review and haven’t been steered wrong in the past!
I'd much rather have the Black Ikea Hanger 10 pack for $1.99. They're standard size but thinner to allow for more storage in the closet! I've replaced every hanger in our house for a family of 4 for around $40!
I love his sense of humor and how he always mentions his wife - but most of all, his “I love you” at the end. ❤
I use the corner shelf that’s usually for the bathroom as my side table in my bedroom perfect for my clip on light also from IKEA.
You are a great spokesperson for better health, as you are always so relatable!
Matt, I’ve had a set of 6 of those thin IKEA wine glasses for over 15 years now and they have held up beautifully; and I don’t baby them either (even running them through the dishwasher at least once a week).
Also, thick glass isn't considered a selling feature on wine glasses.
Thanks Matt! I’ve never been inside IKEA although there’s one down the street. 😂 At 60, I just don’t need anything for the house. Just house repairs! LOL! Always a pleasure to watch no matter where you are! God bless.
You too!
Same here! I need to get rid of things!😢
You should go just for the food. Eat hot food in the restaurant or get frozen to take home. 😁
I like that you did my favorite store IKEA. I usually shop online because the closest one is three and a half hours away and if I go there then that means I will feel guilty if I don't go visit my family. I use the Ikea bags when we go to the mailbox because I can just hook that short inner handle on the hook on the mailbox door and just reach in and scoop everything into the bag. Service dog carries it back to the house for me.
The lingonberry jam is an Ikea must imo. Way better than cranberry at Thanksgiving, anytime on turkey sandwiches, or with other meat dishes, incl Ikea meatballs. 😋👩🍳🍽
My kids love it on a PB&J
My mother randomly got a jar of it in a food hamper and she is obsessed with it now XD
Lingonberries can be eaten right off the bush; don't really need sugar when they are fresh.
I have written a poem and I have called it "Ode to Lingonberry Jam." lol
Never had ligonberry. Hope I make it to Ikea soon
I literally yell out to my entire household when you post a video, and we drop whatever we're doing and run to the Roku to watch. Thanks for another great video!!!!!!!! :)
That is so nice of you haha!
I've got those red chair pads in grey and they're very comfy.
Always enjoy your vlogs.Best wishes to all from the UK
Thanks for the video! About 80% of my home is Ikea...I love it there. Oh and side note...that's not a gift wrapping station, it's for kids to use for art :) I bought one for my niece :) ....Love you too!
where is the drill screwdriveer set link from amazon ?
Love IKEA!! Thank you for adding them to your deals!
the vesken 3 tier trolley used to be $9.99 -12.99 ~2.5 years in IKEA Canada.
Black is new option. I used on for cleaning supplies and another for 12cm plant pots (holes are great for drainage)
That fold up “washing tub “ is also GREAT for a take along pet’s water bowl!
When it comes to wine glasses, thinner is better. The Dollar Store glasses are not better quality because they're thicker. It's actually the exact opposite. @11:01
Why is that?
@@texasgoddess323they’re made of a higher quality materials and craftsmanship.
I didn’t think that was a toothbrush holder, I use mine in the shower as a hook for washcloths or pouffs
I love this mans personality on these videos ! ❤ you rock !!
Well done. Thank you for sharing your tools to find financial and mental health tools!!! You are invaluable. Good bless you.
The shoe tray works great for pet dishes, too. The waste baskets make great plant pots. Use as an outer pot, or add holes with a drill and use outdoors. I have some ive been using outside for 3 or 4 years, and they have held up great.
The cleaning caddy is amazing
We are fortunate to have an IKEA near us. However, last time I was there by myself, I got lost in the maze of displays and somehow got turned around. I was traveling backwards I guess because I looked down on the floor, and the arrows were pointing the opposite direction of where I was going. I think had been going around in circles for a while. I kind of still have PTSD about it, and don’t want to return, even though I love their stuff. I felt like I was being held captive in a store! I really like the map idea that somebody gave earlier in the comments. After all this ordeal, a friend of mine told me “well you don’t even have to go upstairs to the displays. You can just short cut your way through and just shop in the downstairs bin area. “ 😅
Normally, I don't shop IKEA because usually you have to put everything together and the stuff is pricey but in today's video, I might reconsider. You had a lot of affordable items. I especially liked your video today because you took a little longer on the items by giving us ideas on how to use them and also comparing them to the cheapest prices by telling us where to get them. I also like when you tell us how you or Daria use the items as it give us new ideas. And, I also love your videos more now, because you slowed it down a bit to describe the items. I like your quirky puns about having only 1 drawer. Thank you for taking the time in making your videos more personal. I hope I spelled your wife's name correctly.
It’s usually a good buy. They have some really nice stuff that is worth it as it will last.
😊
We have four of the $16 plastic shelving sets. They are totally modular so you can mix and match to build different sizes. We did two sets with three shelves in showers, and took the extras and did a taller one in a closet.
Sending love, honesty is the best policy,did you watched this on TV?
Love the shoe storage hack
I can vouch for the quality of the wood hangers. I've had them in our front hall closet for 20 years. I use space-saver flocked hangers throughout the rest of the house, but for coats and jackets, nothing beats IKEA wood hangers.
Yes, please make more IKEA videos! Appreciate all your hard work in putting your videos out!

There is a reason why those carts move on their own. The carts are possessed by the spirits of those who got lost in an IKEA.
To this day, the carts will try to escape the store. But the real question is ... what happened to their bodies?
Well, you'll just have to try the iconic IKEA meatballs to find out. Mwa-ha-ha-ha
😂😂😂 I laughed out loud! Thank you
Another reason for getting the veggie balls instead. ;D
@@thedealguy Glad you liked the little spooky story. For some reason, I was reminded of Halloween.
I love to brush my teeth in the shower too! BTW those stem glasses are much lighter than the dollar store ones. So it makes them look better in quality.
They are significantly better quality. I’ve had a set of 6 for over 15 years and haven’t broken one yet (and they get used at least once or twice every week).
I was in there just yesterday, that cart has a mind of its own, my little daughter loved it!
Matt! Great content as always! I love the way you do your videos! So happy and exuberant! I’m beginning to think you could sell anything to a person just because of your sweet personality! Blessings always to you and your family! ❤️✝️
Awesome recommendations video, thank you! Yes, i also brush my teeth in the shower
Love this video as always!
A really good thing about their lint rollers is that they peel off in a slant, soooo much easier to take off! ❤
Wow. Rare to see Deal Guy without the shirt and tie!
The Baggmuck shoe tray saves me a lot of grief by being the holder of my cat boxes! I have one under each tray, and it saves my carpet...and their lives...when they hang their little hineys out the doorway and do their business! Plus it catches a lot of the litter they track, so it's a win-win for me!
So smart!
Great IKEA products review! I knew the iconic bag is a universal favorite with nomadic YTers I follow in a variety of lifestyles around the world: RVers, pet parents, feature filmmakers, artists, chefs, etc. My fave this episode is the all-in-one cleaning caddy w drainage that perches on its mop bucket lip. Who could pass that up? All it needs is a companion set of collapsible handle cleaning brushes, brooms & mops & a multipack of microfiber cloths, scrub sponges & spray bottles.
IKEA!!!! My 2nd MOST FAVORITE THING IN THE WORLD 🌎😍!! After Deal Guy, OF COURSE!!!! Thank you to THEEEEEE "Saver Crusader" for DA PEOPLE!!!🎉😂
The 3 tiered plastic car with wheels (at the 0:30 mark) is not new, but it is a great find. I've had mine for nearly two years now. Mine holds extra laundry soaps/stain removers and slides in beside my washer perfectly. Save yourself $8.99 and skip the metal measuring cups at the 2:32 mark. They rust. The colander/strainer (2:38 mark) that fits over your sink is an excellent buy. I've had it for a few months and it is very durable and does a great job for straining hot pasta, etc.
I absolutely brush my teeth in the shower! If you drool toothpaste, you don't have to change your shirt. Max Efficiency!
Also max bacteria 🦠 😂
@@chaosseatLike your whole body being washed in the shower doesn't also have germs, bacteria, dirt, etc. If you think about what all is being washed in the shower, as long as they spit the toothpaste close to the drain, it's not any nastier than other parts being washed in it.
You are fun to watch, thank you for sharing all these great Ikea finds. A lot of the storage racks are also useful for crafters and sewers, so you might want to mention it in your descriptions. I'm a quilter and always looking for good ways to organize fabrics by size and color. Thank you.
Inflation reflects the rising cost of shipping due to the huge increase in the cost of fuel and exorbitant rise in road and fuel taxes. Trucks and ships run on diesel and their fuel costs have more than tripled to quadrupled in the last 3 years. Shipping costs are passed on in the price of products.
I've seen the clip on baskets used in refrigerators for a little extra storage. They come in different lengths, widths and depths and some have a pull out drawer. The multipurpose storage basket and over the sink colander are thoughtful housewarming gifts. The solid bottomed shoe storage is more sanitary than the metal mesh one---anything on sole with fall through into the inside of the bottom shoe. And, yes, I also brush my teeth in the shower. My vanity is mainly for hand washing.
You make the most simplest items seem amazing. IKEA needs to sponsor you bc I want to buy everything and I don't need any of it. 😂
The thin rug could also be used as a room divider. And, i always brush my teeth on the shower. I had Bell's Palsy 10 years ago and still have the paralysis. Brushing in the shower is easier for that side.
I have the lint roller, and I love it! You can even refill the paper. I got a four pack for $3.50 at IKEA ☺️
Ok how did you know I’m going there this weekend and I really needed this video???
Thank you, Matt. I haven't been to IKEA in quite a while. Your video reminds me I should go soon! ❤️😊
The ikea bathroom suction cup products are the best I’ve ever owned. Definitely recommended ❤
I'm so bummed that they closed the 1 in Rego Park, NY. With no car & relying on public transportation it would take me almost 2 hours to get to Brooklyn or Hicksville & then have to lug everything home. But i do love their products. Usually great quality at good price points. When i saw that gift wrap station i immediately thought of using it in a kid's room. Find some rolls of white or brown craft paper that the kids can draw on & the walls should be safe!! Also thought that the black metal wine rack might be able to be used in the bathroom as an extra hand towel holder. Thanks due another great video Matt!! U always bring the great content to us!
Foldable tub: great for camping. Many uses. Shoe bags: great for entry to tent/camper. Slippers: to wear in home/camper. (Do people still wear shoes in houses? Eww.)Have extras for guests. The Shoe Tray!! I bought for my dogs food bowls& my cats. They are perfect. Keep floors much cleaner.
Great Video!! Thank you
You always find great deals! Thank you for all you do for us! And thank you for the laughs!
Ooooo - better idea for my shower poof than the suction cup I’m now using! Thanks for a great idea!
Ikea raised a lot of prices on a lot of things.. and not just by a 50 cents each, by ALOT. so much that its not cheaper for me to make the drive to ikea anymore.. I bought a bunk bed in 2022 for 119, I saw it in the store for $189! such a huge price increase. but. this was still a fun video to watch!
I love you videos. One thing though. On #9 the TISKIN that you show is actually the hook with suction cup. That 2 pack of hooks is $4.99. They do have TISKIN toothbrush holders for $6.99 it just wasn’t what you were showing in the video at the time. It is also just 1 toothbrush holder for $6.99. I only noticed this because I got those hooks on my last Ikea trip. 😊
I have the foldable laundry basket and the plastic shoe organizers and I love both. Love the handle on the laundry basket so I can grab it with one hand instead of two like a traditional basket. The shoe organizers have allowed me to keep my hoard of shoes organized and together, now I can buy more shoes.
i cannot believe a clip on basket is almost 10 bucks. it should only be 3 max. the current inflation is so fckin ridiculous.
Yes! More Ikea videos for sure. As for brushing my teeth in the shower, that would have to be a "No". I can say I have tried it, but there is just something about spitting standing up vs. bending at the sink (closer to the drain I guess) that isn't very appealing to me. So, for now, I'll keep my brushing to the sink. 😊 Thanks again for another great video! 👍
It is amazing how we do similar things in such different ways. I brush my teeth and wash my face at the sink. Our differences make us interesting. Love you and your family. Thanks
I've used the Mauvel shoe organizer as a recipe book holder for pages and thin books. Can add a clothespin if needed.
I have bought a couple of those storage bags and they work great. I use them for winter and summer clothes storage.
Have you seen the Ikea rain hats? I bought 2 of them and have a lot of fun using them. (people ask, is that from an Ikea bag?) I am hoping Ikea will make rain coats to match. 😁
You are so funny! Love your videos. I especially like "I love you, bye bye!" ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!!! This is sooo on time, I was looking for some items to purchase to use my Birthday coupon of $10 off!! Woohoo!! Yeaaaa...
Yes, I started brushing my teeth in the shower several years ago and don't make such a mess anymore on the sink and mirror. I also use the sprayer to then water floss as well as run the pressured water across my gums after I brush. My whole mouth seems cleaner and just feels better.
OMG, I love Ikea and I can't tell you how happy I am you are covering it. Right off the bat I can say that the 3 tier cart is a deal. Even Temu has something very similar for 12.79 on sale (19.79 otherwise) and you have to wait a couple of weeks and hope it makes it through the mail journey. Another HUGE thank you, is the link to the rechargeable screwdriver - been looking for one but had no idea what to look for. From experience, the 19.99 folding chair is extremely weight sensitive so buy at your own risk - no, I did not break it, but my buddy did. Lastly, NO have NEVER brushed my teeth in the shower.
I always enjoy your videos. When talking about a product, remember that items for small spaces can also be used in an RV. RV'ers are always looking for products! Thanks!
Hi Matt!! I don't have an IKEA anywhere near me but I have ordered online with them before. I wasn't aware that they had so many things under $20!! Will have to revisit them!! Awesome video!! 😊
I’ve never been to ikea yet, but planning a trip in afew weeks. This helps me know what to look out for. Thank you.
Yes, been brushing my teeth in the shower for many many years. Although, that hook thing you showed, I don’t see how that could hold a toothbrush, I think it’s just a hook.
This was a fun video. Thank you for sharing your personal experience with Better Health. You’re a genuinely great guy. 😊
