Shopping! My dream word. I go shopping when I’m stressed, upset, sad and of course happy. I love shopping so when Cost Plus World Market asked me to come on a little shopping spree I of course, said yes. I soon found out I was in for a treat because World Market is having a great promo this month that when you spend $20 or more you get 15% off a Southwest Airlines flight (From June 16-July 13)! I haven’t bought my BlogHer12 ticket yet so it was perfect timing.
I spent so long just taking in all that World Market has to offer and the girls had a blast checking out all the cool kitchen gadgets they found. You can find food, furniture, baking dishes, serving dishes, plates, cups, home decor, and so much more! I was on a mission though, to find items that my family could enjoy when we have a little staycation.
My main targets: serving plates, BBQ grill accessories, a decorative center piece, and maybe a couple baking dishes.
I just got home from a 3 day vacation away from my family so now the focus is on my family. I figured with Summer just starting I’d get some nice serving plates and things my husband would love to use when he’s grilling out. It was easy to get lost in all the aisles of great products like these cute cooking timers and tiny flower shaped collenders!
I was able to find so many awesome things for our staycation and knew that I went way past the $20 requirement to get myself a 15% off coupon for Southwest! Most of the items I purchased were no more than $4.99 and that was including plates, bowls, meat thermometer, and much more.
Notice that heart and butterfly thing? Those are pancake and egg molds! Makenna found them and they are just so great so we grabbed them. Perfect if we envision our staycation starting right from the moment we wake up.
So I didn’t buy the food/ingredients for my bars at World Market but I did find this plate and cute wicker tray that I used as the center piece on our table when serving my Chocolate, Peanut Butter, & Pretzel Bars. The plate was $2.99 and the tray was $3.99!
I also found out that World Market is holding a Summer Getaway sweepstakes and each week they are giving away a trip for 4 anywhere Southwest flies, including hotel accommodations and a $500 World Market gift card! Doesn’t that sound just amazing? To find out more about the giveaway go to the World Market Facebook page and click on the Summer Getaway tab near the top. You can also find out more about World Market if you check out their Twitter page.

I love their fun appetizer and tasting plates!
Those pretzel bars look scrumptious!
I’ve never shopped here, but it looks like they have a ton of great products!
Cute stuff and really great prices!
What fantastic prices! I’m going to have to visit Cost plus this week. I didn’t even think of going there for food props.
Such cute stuff!
I think I’m going to take a trip to our local WM.
I wish we had a World Market somewhere.
I am a World Market ADDICT and we have one only 5 minutes away from our home. They have the best selection of coffee and wine, as well as an amazing home decor array. Since we’re booking a trip this fall, the coupon will be my excuse to go shop sometime this week
On a side note – We have that egg timer you purchased and it’s SO great!
hey ANY reason to shop is a good reason but saving money on a plane ticket is a bonus at the end of the rainbow!
And that’s great to hear about the egg timer because I haven’t used it yet and wasn’t sure if it would actually work like it says
Oh my gosh at those chocolate peanut butter pretzel bars!
We don’t have a World Market but after reading your post I wish we did!
That store is irresistible! Everywhere you look is something else that needs to go home with ya! I just wish there was one in the town where I’m currently living.
it really is Liz! I had to stop shopping or else I could have gone broke in there.
The peanut butter and pretzel bars look so yummy.
haha. thanks.
I love world market!! It is candy heaven for my brother who is particular to a certain brand of sweets! Great place to find foods not found elsewhere.
I love that store and could spend hours playing!! Plus they always have great gifts!
I wish we had a cost plus world market nearby!
even mine isn’t really nearby but I make the drive because I love World Market so much
I don’t think we have any of these stores local to us but wow that dessert looks yummy
that is such a shame! Write World Market ASAP and tell them to build one in your area! You are missing out Tricia.
Looks like I need to make a trip to World Market .. I need some new food props.
it’s a great place for props!
I am OBSESSED with Cost Plus World Market – their stuff rocks. Plus I love my scones and clotted cream with preserves and the only place i can buy it that I’ve found is World Market. Yum.
