Cost Plus World Market

this is my favorite Cost Plus… for several reasons. First, you can always park close. Second, it is next to Tres Amigos so double impact shopping. Third, the staff is ALWAYS incredibly nice and helpful.
They have EVERYTHING here but usually what I come here to buy are frames, greeting cards (BEST selection ever), candles, chimes and unique food items.
They have the authentic Lousiana Mardi Gras stuff out now!

Love the merchandise, but have been very disappointed recently with the service. Everyone is very nice and helpful… until you tell them you aren’t a Cost Plus world member (or whatever they call their rewards program), and aren’t interested in becoming a member. Suddenly they lose all interest in being pleasant. This has happened three times in the last few months, always with different cashier’s. What, do they get paid a bounty for getting people to sign up?

One of my favorite places to shop for the home. Very reasonably priced in my opinion. Great style throughout the entire store. Great selection of imported wines and food products. They are constantly sending me coupons and emails notifying me of sales happening in the near future.

I think this is a cool place for unique gifts and the only place in Tucson I’ve been able to find coffee syrups to make my own espresso at home.

It’s my 2^nd time coming to this place and at first i thought it’s a little dark than some of the store i’ve been to. The problem is, they haven’t replaced all the light bulbs that have burned out. That aside, i am always in love with this place every time i’m here. I love all the variety of foods/​snacks they have from all over the world. It’s a little overpriced compared to other store but some of them are the ones that’s really hard to find somewhere else.
They have good selections of wines from vineyards all over the world. I loved trying each and every one of them. They also have some sakes but selection is limited, too bad they don’t carry soju, coz i’ll be one happy camper!
Be a member of their explorer club and you’ll get savings thru email and coupons that are very worth it.

We like Cost Plus. We have gotten things from the kitchen area and save a ton of money on getting a set of dining room chairs. We especially love the candy selection. This one is very nice and the employees are always helpful.
It is always nice to pop in and see what they have because some of their inventory is always changing.

Was here Sunday (Father’s Day) and was able to get out without a purchase, first time ever, but there were plenty of good things to look at…

I really love Cost Plus World Market! They have such an eclectic and unique variety of items from countries all over the world. The food and snack selection is fun to go through and purchase yummy items that you’ve never seen or heard of before (and in some cases, items that you can’t even read the label because it’s in Japanese or something). They have a great selection of sodas, waters, coffee, and other beverages from far and wide. They even have a decent selection of wine. If you want to get something different and interesting for someone, these items are great for that!
Their holiday sections are also very cool. They have whimsical and fun stuff for most holidays — stuff that also doesn’t exist in other stores. Their xmas ornaments are especially cool, as are some of the Halloween decorations they have.
Their kitchenware section is a good selection of normal items, but also items that can be hard to find elsewhere. Specialty and unique utensils that make preparing cultural cuisines easier and way more fun (and authentic).
This particular store is generally very clean and organized. The employees are always very friendly, but they don’t walk the floor very much, so you’ll probably need to go to a register if you need some help. All in all, not too big of a deal, though.

If I won the lottery, I would TOTALLY decorate my house with all the neat stuff here. There’s a lovely mix of fancy and funky furniture, accessories, and housewares that could be combined into a décor that would probably make Martha Stewart slightly queasy and that’s all right by me.
Alas, I lack the budget for that sort of thing, so instead, I go here for munchies that I can’t find anywhere else. After all, what better way to appreciate global culture than to try new food? Some of my favorites include Japanese Hi-​Chew candy (like Starburst, but 10 times more awesome), Patak’s Indian curry sauces, Australian licorice, and bubbly blood-​orange lemonade from France.
The alcohol selection is fairly good, too. I don’t drink much and know nothing about wine, but my husband is a beer fan and has found some interesting international brews here; you can often find sampler boxes that include beverages from around the world.
While the goodies are probably a little on the pricey side as well ($ 1.50 for a pack of Hi-​Chew vs. $ 0.75 for a Starburst at 7 – 11), it’s a good place to grab a few special treats once in a while.

If you want a nice, organized and predictable shop, this isn’t the place for you. If you pretend you’re going through a cool attic with a lot of things to choose from and no one really there to help you, you’ll be set. Each time I go here, no one really helps and if you have a question, they don’t know the answer. I know better to just look around on my own now. That said, you can find some really nice things by exploring.
This place is a must-​go if you’re stuck on ideas for small gifties or stocking stuffers. You can find all the things you want for a theme basket including the basket. There’s a variety of bath supplies to choose from as well as accessories, wines, foods, candies, etc.
This year, I have an «infusions» theme going and I was able to find the bottles for a very reasonable price. Their prices are already low, but if you sign up for their email club, you get even more of a discount. They have a lot of three hour sales in which one category of items will go on sale for 50% off (baskets, wines, candles). It’s worth looking in to. This store really is a place to go if you feel like browsing or have time to kill. You’ll end up finding something you want.

Not too shabby but I prefer the location on Stone. For me it comes down to service (shocking I know) I usually feel like folks at this location are hard to find and not as quick to help. I called ahead to have some tables put on hold, and although I assured the sales associate that they were in the back when I arrived, she was convinced they were up front by the register. Where were they? In the back. It’s a tiny issue and at the end of the day I got exactly what I wanted (now I just need to put them together), but something about the fact that she didn’t really listen to me at first made me wish I had gone to the other. I also feel like the lines are longer and there are fewer cashiers at this store.

Some names that caught my eye when browsing through this store: Spotted Dick, Phuket, Shirakaku Rice, Farfalline, Vegemite and more unpronounceable stuff.
Seriously, this place really lives up to it’s name. They have a large variety
of foods, spices and other items from around the world.
They also sell beer, wine, furniture, home/​patio accessories, dishes, snacks and lots of other stuff.
It’s a neat place to browse. You never know what unique items you might find there.

Cost Plus World Market Is Like…
The least acknowledged room in my house that has a lot of clutter, but with way cooler stuff. I am trying to search my memory bank to see what originally brought me to Cost Plus in the first place… I think it was the idea of finding a bookcase. Did I find myself one, yes I sure did, at a good price.
I know I am no Kenneth Brown (

, but I rest assure that many would find this place to be awesome for young first time home buyers who need to furnish their home with inexpensive quality pieces. This is the secret which sets this store apart from Sam Levitz… okay are you ready, shhhh… almost all their pieces are 100% real wood. The only particle board or cardboard you will find is from the packaging the furniture came in.
I’ve bought a 6ft tall bookcase, a nice computer desk (one that has doors to hide any office clutter so it looks more like a bureau when closed), and a dining table with chairs. I spent about $ 800 for all the above mentioned items.
Besides the inexpensive furniture, this is a great place to buy fabrics, rugs, small cameos, kitchen necessities, dishes, wines, chocolates, somewhat hard-​to-​find and exotic food, etc. The place has a lot of stuff packed into one store. Therefore you really need the help from one of the floor assistants in navigating through the place.
Most of the floor staff are pretty friendly and sometimes it seems like they are short staffed but they’re really not. Its just hard to find them through the jungle of products they sell.
This place appeases the aesthetics with people of all ages. However, if you’re looking for plain Americana furniture, you might not always find it here.
As they are a national chain they have their own website where you can shop there first before going to the store. However, it is wise to go to the store because they have clearance sales that are almost never listed on line.
