IKEA opens its doors to excited Auckland shoppers

After all the planning and waiting, the Swedish furniture megastore IKEA has opened in Auckland. While hundreds of customers, including the Prime Minister celebrated the much anticipated store opening, the rest of the city was braced for disruption. Traffic management was in full effect, with authorities warning of delays of up to 40-minutes around the motorway. Finn Blackwell got amongst the frenzied crowds and filed this report.
