That doesn't explain why I can buy single coat hangers online, but not single spatulas.

This is also sort of a meme. I have taken trips to IKEA maybe 30 times in my life, and I walked out of there with exactly what was on my shopping list (or less, because the items sucked or were out of stock) 95% of the time.

It probably depends on the person. I for one never leave IKEA without having bought something I hadn't even thought about beforehand.
