Re:IKEA to discontinue its annual catalog, ending a 70-year run by rospaya on Wednesday February 17, 2021 @11:46AM (#26168419)
I'm not anywhere near upset but I loved going through IKEA and Sony catalogs in the 90s. It was aspirational since the nearest IKEA was two countries away and represented something modern and more progressive than the furniture we could buy. Most of the Sony catalog was equipment I didn't need or could afford, except Walkmans or various headphones.

It's just nostalgia and consumerism I guess.
