Indeed, learning the short-cuts is key. I also never go there on weekends, and never after Nov. 1.
That said, I tend to be disappointed, too, but mainly because what I was expecting/hoping to find isn't as useful/workable/effective as I had hoped. I always go in expecting find "the thing" I need, and come out feeling like I was misled. IKEA is very good on hype, and they do have some clever and useful things -- but those things never seem to be the things I was looking for in the first place.
