    Imagine you’re shopping and you pull out a towel from the rack and there is just a whole stoner back behind there chilling. /shudders

      Hey, I found a stoner tucked away in the men’s jeans in Wal-Mart, 50% off.

      Decided to take him home, and it’s been a great decision! He takes care of the couch, he’s always down to play some Smash, he’ll even let me win.

      All it cost me was watching one Pauly Shore movie a week. Tomorrow’s Encino Man!

    I mean it would be pretty bad for the staff and the customers who just want to buy shit

      Might be decent exposure for the store though. It’s pretty easy to see stuff at IKEA and be like yeah, I have been meaning to pick up a new wobbly stool. Better grab some weird candy too.

        Lol.

        A slightly fun fact is that apparently you can’t buy multi-packaged furniture without picking every package up since the point of sale terminal will refuse to complete the purchase if you don’t scan all the packages of a product. Pretty smart actually. I haven’t tested this myself so it might be wrong.

    Why aren’t there paid services for hide and seek? Like a bunch if furniture, walls, shelves and what not and put it in a big warehouse. Have people pay to participate and play whatever games they want in there. You can have massive organized events and everything. Imagine massive game of manhunt in there with electronic devices to show who’s it.

      That actually sounds dope, especially if you have theme games where a professional seeker plays being a serial killer in a slasher flick or stuff like that

      Basically just another idea that fits into existing game zones places.

    I’ve played hide and seek every single time I have been in an IKEA. We never got more than 20 people together though.

    How can 3,000 people possibly be hiding in there?

    odds are you’re going to see someone.

    And how do you distinguish hide and seek participants with casual unwitting shoppers?

    All you need now is to lock the doors, turn off the lights, and tell everyone that the story is closing.
