    French Press

    For coffee enthusiasts, a French press is a must-have. The Ikea UPPHETTA Coffee Maker , priced at $9.99, is a compact and affordable option for two medium-sized cups of coffee (13.5 oz). It’s perfect for those who need a quick caffeine fix without spending too much. If you need a larger capacity, Ikea also offers a 34-ounce version for $9.99.

    In comparison, Target’s Bodum Brazil 34oz French Press Coffee Maker is priced at $19.99, double that of Ikea’s option. Ikea’s French press is the clear choice for those looking to save.

    Dishes

    When it comes to dinnerware, simple white stoneware is a versatile and elegant choice. Ikea’s GODMIDDAG 18-Piece Dinnerware Set is priced at $29.99, which breaks down to just $5 per 3-piece place setting. This set includes six dinner plates, six side plates, and six bowls, making it an excellent value for money.

    Target offers the Room Essentials Coupe 16-Piece Dinnerware Set for double the price at $60, but this set only includes four dinner plates, four side plates, and four bowls, which equates to $15 per 3-piece place setting. There are also four mugs, so while the price tag is higher, this may be a better option for those who want matching drinkware as well.

    Scrub brushes are handy for cleaning dishes and surfaces, and they don’t have to be expensive. Ikea’s ANTAGEN Dish Brush is an incredible bargain at just $0.79. This brush is sturdy and effective, making it a great tool for tackling tough grime.

    Target’s Made By Design Dish Brush, on the other hand, is priced at $3.29, making it significantly more expensive than Ikea’s option. While Target offers a wider variety of scrub brushes, Ikea’s ANTAGEN Dish Brush provides unbeatable value at under $1 per brush.
