It's a big store that sells furniture and home goods. Very convenient! I'd say the quality is decent, but Kaveh has his opinions. At least it's affordable.
[ Quickly, he wades through his mind over how money worked in the Underground, staring blankly ahead. Mm. Stroking his chin, he decides to make an addendum. ]
[ IKEA is well-known for affordable furniture, quality mid, but as we Millennials would say... We will take it if we can afford it. Real wood? Authentic leather? Grandfathered from our parents atop their throne of pensions and stock.
So, yeah, even Vash thinks IKEA is nice just for the price, but. Let him start. ]
The value of the dollar was a bit strange! As an example, a basic bed from IKEA costed six dollars while a set of clothes costed four dollars. Sometimes, there would be strange food in other areas that had odd effects listed for five dollars. The expensive items in the furniture store though ranged from twenty to ninety dollars.
[ To give Alhaitham a sense of what the economy was like in their fake dead world, though he doesn't mention how a handgun was sold there because I'm sure Vash would think that's normal.
Then, with fingers coming into play, he's going to start explaining their salary. ]
We would get a weekly allowance of somewhere between fifteen to eighteen dollars, then paid five on Friday. You could, potentially, buy three beds a week, which I'd say is cheap? But then there are the bunkbeds that costed twenty, which seems like a scam because you could buy two basic beds for twelve.
