The comedian and filmmaker of “171 Starbucks”, Mark Malkoff, managed to surprise us this time by moving in an IKEA store in Paramus, N.J. for one whole week. This idea came to him as his apartment was under fumigation to get rid of the cockroaches and he could not not afford a hotel nor could stay at his friends small studio flats.

So, after contacting the IKEA manager to get their permission he moved in with his camera crew and started documenting his new adventure. Details of his every day routine can be found at his web site here.

Till now the only problem that he is facing is that everything in the showroom is fake. Washing machine, sink, toilet etc are all decorative items so he is forced to use the staff locker room and the staff cafeteria as his kitchen in order to cook.

See how he tries to shower in the video below

Apparently though his wife does not share his “enthusiasm” in living in a store so she moved in with relatives instead!
