Cost Plus World Market

I’m definitely a regular customer at World Market and always end up buying much more than I had intended to buy when arriving at the store. Usually I am able to find whatever items I’m looking for and I truly enjoy finding new and exciting food items and many other things. Last time I went to this store I was unable to find a particular chocolate that my family loves. The store associate that helped me spent a lot of time and effort searching for what I needed. It turns out World Market no longer is importing the glorious chocolate but like magic, the now two ladies helping me were able to find one last sample of the chocolate and absolutely saved the day. Thank you Mary and Leslie for providing excellent customer service and going above and beyond in showing that personal Customer Service still is the best way of making a shopper happy and keep coming back.

I love this Cost Plus World Market! I saw a special deal online that I thought would be applicable in the store — Leslie told me she would «check that out» for me when I am ready to go. So after my usual «hour» of looking around this glorious store, I was ready with my Dark Almond Lacey Cookies and a few items I would be giving as a birthday present. Leslie checked to see if I could get the 2 for 1 I saw online, but that unfortunately was not going to work in the store. However, she did her «miracle» and I did get 2 Lacey Cookie boxes for the price of one. I also had my special 20% coupon from my email and that helped me a lot with the other purchases, especially with our 9% tax! Another helpful lady there has been Brenda in my past visits. Thank you very much Leslie and Brenda! With regards to parking — I usually get there when I can just drive in but if I need to validate, no worries! They also have one of the cleanest bathrooms that I can remember with regards to other Cost Plus World Market stores. Bravissimo! If you ever want to celebrate your store’s anniversary, please let me know and I will bring in my ‘cello and serenade everyone for a few hours (with breaks of course at the demo area, hahah!), with music from around the world. Let me know!!! Send me an email
when that time will come. We will figure out the details together.
Thanks again, Janice F., Ph.D.

I never come here again .
Assistant manager refused to take a rug back (with receipt) saying it has human hair on it. The rug was not used. The black hairs she claiming is human hair are from the rug itself as it was rolled up and the front of the rug is shedding like a mofo.
I am appalled by her attitude and rudeness. I never seen her before in this store and I wish I got her name .
She has long black hair and an attitude .
I have an interior design business and I shop here a lot. I don’t know who she thinks she is but she is there to make sure her customers don’t walk away .
Will not return. Ever. And a note to Darcy the GM: train your people right. If your rug is shedding and it gets rolled up, it’s inevitable to get the stuff in the back. It’s «rolled ». Repeat: rolled .
You just lost a client who dropped 20−30G in this store in the past few years. This over a $ 149 rug. That wasn’t even used.

I can’t believe I never reviewed this place since I can spend hours in here. It’s one of my favorite stores. Well, the parking situation limits your time and it might be useful for your wallet (less time I spend in here, less I buy). There’s free parking in a lot behind (bit strange) for an hour with validation.
I prefer this location to the one at the Farmer’s Market since it’s less crowded.
I love their merchandise, with flavors from all over the world, from furniture and home décor, to clothes, jewelry, accessories, fun food items and drinks. I found treats in here from all over Europe, sweats I grew up with, so that’s great (like Nutella before it started to become popular here, too).
It’s a fun to browse, get inspired, shop. I bought lots of food for myself here, great home décor items and fun gifts (perfect place for that). They have a great card selection, calendars, kitchen items, you name it. They also have great seasonal decorations. Very reasonable prices, they always bring new merchandise. Great customer service. Bring a bag, they do charge for bags here.
I love shopping in here, for an hour you get to go around the world a bit and sample it.

I loove this place! You can find sooo many different things here! I usually only come here with my sister when she wants to buy alcohol but they really do have a really cool collection of stuff here. It is on the pricier side though :(

I love this location. Great selection, always organized, great furniture deals, wonderfully helpful staff. They also tend to have the items that disappear at The Grove & Santa Monica locations for longer (like outdoor furniture/​seasonal items).

Love World Market! I took my husband here today (he’s never been) and he fell in love with it! I got a cute bag for only $ 17. They are having a 50% sale on all bags and totes. Everyone is always so nice and everything is always so clean and well organized. I always go in looking for one thing and end up coming out with a cart full of stuff.

I love the wine and products here but I find it extremely inconvenient that offers cannot be combined. During today’s visit to your Sherman Oaks location I had to have my items transferred to a shopping cart that was «allowed» to go outside. This makes no sense, why would you want to inconvenience shoppers in this way??? I would think you would want shoppers to load up their shopping carts.

One of my favorite places! You can pretty much find anything here; jewelry, bags, home décor, furniture, kitchen items, seasonings and food, gift wrap… the list goes on and on. This is where I get my stocking stuffers for Christmas every year. They have some awesome candles, incense, food items, craft beers, etc. Also, they have sriracha popcorn and sriacha beef jerky that will blow your mind. Their expansive wine and beer selection makes it a great place to pick up a host gift.
I will say that some of their stuff is cost effective, like $ 2.99 wine glasses, and some of their stuff is pricey, like their furniture. I like that the store provides non-​mainstream items. It feels earthier than, say, Pier One or Pottery Barn. Also, the staff is super friendly.
Sign up for their Explorer program (free) because you get $ 10 store credit for every $ 200 you spend, and they give you coupons all the time. Worth it for a gal like me who comes here a couple times a month to replace broken wine glasses, pick up an area rug, or purchase gift wrap and a birthday gift for someone.

I like coming here every so often and finding random treasures. I found a bacon marinade here for my ex that he LOVED and it wasn’t made from Bacon but tasted exactly like it.
I recently went and noticed they downsized some of their sections a bit… They used to have several aisles of gluten free food and now that’s gone and the coffee section is only a couple of shelves now. The wine selection is still great at decent prices.

I love this store! I can always find cool and unique gifts for great prices. Lovely jewelry and home décor. The wines are also great and they often have good sales for the insiders members. Lots of food from around the world — if you’re craving candy from other countries, this is the place to go.

Visiting here is always a treat! I buy all sorts of random finds for basket stuffing and such. When coming here, you should not have anywhere to be because it will consume a good 45 minutes of your day.

I work near this place, within walking distance.
Today I went for a long walk, on the way back I went in to see if I could find something for lunch, to take back to the office.
As I am checking out, a young lady comes in off the street and asks to have her parking validated. The checker helping me validates her ticket. (Good local tip, park in the lot, buy nothing and then come in and get your ticket validated.) I bought a couple of items, I think the total was $ 7.98 one of the items was a heavy jar of pickles. The checker asked if I wanted a bag and I said sure, she said the bags cost .10 and then I said no and carried my pickles down the boulevard. I wonder what that parking validation cost them? Maybe it’s part of the lease and it’s free no matter how many people use and abuse it? I just thought it was funny that you can validate without a purchase, but a bag is .10

This location is clean and has a good selection of wine and lighting. It has smaller seasonal and dining table areas.
Con: parking is a paid lot but it has 1 hr validation
Pro: free coffee
If you sign up for their program you get 10% off (but it takes a day or two). You also get a better price on some alcohol.

This place is a wine lover’s dream… well aside from BevMo… but there’s always a sale and if you buy more you get an even bigger discount. I have been here on two separate occasions and the staff both times have been helpful and very informative on helping me save the most money.
The most recent time I went I only had 2 bottles and the cashier, who also happened to be a wine expert helped me pick up two more bottles to save an extra 10%
She Also Helped Me look up my coupon code to save another 15% —oh yea!!!
There are also crazy snacks that I love like their veggie sticks and spinach & artichoke chips…
I’m looking forward to a nice glass of wine with some fruit and snacks… yup!!! Perfect end to a stressful weekend.

I could literally live at Cost Plus World Market. I mean, it has everything you’d ever need to live a delicious and stylish life! I walked in after a group meeting, hoping to find one of those $ 3 cooler bags to keep in my car, but found myself skipping out two hours later, my bag brimming with mugs, tumblers, and quirky little trinkets.
I’d marry their home goods/​décor sections; they have the most incredible selections, and the prices aren’t bad! Lots of great jewelry, clothes, bags to choose from, beautiful furniture, as well as a well-​stocked market section that’ll make you hungry and inclined to buy one of everything.
Also, if you’re a new customer or you haven’t signed up for their customer rewards program, you simply have to give them your email address, activate your account online, and you’ll receive 10% off your first order. Have fun with this place, happy shopper!

Went in here to look around and ended up leaving with a couple of pillows for my couch. They were already reasonably priced, but I got a further discount at the register for providing an email. Don’t worry, I haven’t been spammed yet like some people would argue. They validate for parking up to an hour which is great. Friendly staff as well. I was greeted as I walked in, as I was walking around, and then a friendly cashier as I was checking out.

I love everything about this store. The diversity of products is out of this world. You can find items here that you wouldn’t be able to find anywhere else. From soaps to lotions to lamps to the different variety of food items there is something for everyone.
The stores are all big and spacious and lots of color and a very relaxing ambiance. And they have a nice big parking lot.

I seriously love Cost Plus World Market! I usually go to the one in West LA but we stopped off at this one, and I loved it! It’s big, bright, has all the essentials but I think also a little more than my local store.
I found a bunch of cute stuff for my house and dog. Seriously one of my favorite stores, great for gifts and treats for yourself! I love that they have gourmet groceries too.

2014 Unilocal 365 CHALLENGE — ¹⁸⁵⁄₃₆₅
Visited this location for the first time today because it’s literally right down the street from my work, and I needed to find Devonshire cream to go with my recently purchased scones and lemon curd! :)
The parking here is pretty good. They have a parking lot that has one hour FREE parking WITH store validation. Otherwise, you’ll have to pay. There’s also metered parking on the street.
Cost Plus has so many items from all over the world. It’s so interesting just walking around and looking all the cool stuff they have! They have everything from seasonal/​holiday decorations and goodies, to greeting cards/​gift wrap, to kitchen supplies, to food and drink from foreign countries. There are so many unique things you can find at Cost Plus that are hard to come by, hence why I came here for Devonshire cream, a product imported from England.
I heard that Cost Plus sells TIM TAMS, and one of my best friends has raved about Tim Tams for awhile to me although I’ve never actually tried them. For some reason, they’re sold under the name Arnott’s, which is actually the brand that Tim Tams are sold under. However, they’re the exact same thing! Don’t be fooled! They probably don’t label it Tim Tams so Americans don’t go crazy and constantly sell out of them: P
Stuff is a little pricey at Cost Plus, but it’s probably because a lot of their items are rare/​imported. I ended up buying the following items:
Adorable elephant shaped mug — $ 7.99
Devonshire cream — $ 7.99
Original Arnott’s Tim Tams — $ 4.49? I think
Caramel filled Arnott’s Tim Tams — $ 4.49
I just came home and ate the Tim Tams I purchased, and also tried the TIM TAM SLAM. Um, can I just say it was pretty freakin’ amazing?! Especially with coffee!
The sales associate who helped me was super nice and friendly, and we had a conversation about the Tim Tams. She verified for me that the Tim Tams were legit, even though they just say ARNOTTS on the front.
Overall, I really like this Cost Plus and will probably be back to buy more Tim Tams and other cool worldly stuff! 5 stars.
