    Or you could just use a candle lighter. Found in the candle section.
    Or you could break into the kitchen, which I’m sure would have some sort of fire starting implement.
    Just sayin’

    Reminds me of the Beatles: “so, I lit a fire, isn’t it good, Norwegian wood”.

    Wait, IKEA is Swedish. Drat.

    How to start a fire in an IKEA store:

    Step 1: Walk calmly to restaurant area
    Step 2: Turn on stove which will most likely automatically ignite via an electric spark
    Step 3: Find a pan and enjoy some Swedish meatballs
