Cost Plus

[kadesma]

Does anyone shop at Cost Plus? I love that place and always come out of there with arms full. I found a tin of smoked trout in canola oil it was awesome. I also found a bottle ov belinni for one same with prosecco spices from India and all types or nummies to bake or cook. Really pretty patio things, chairs, dishes, glasses, serving things table runners and place mats, I had a blast and now I'm just a tad lighter in the wallet.

Is Cost Plus similar to Costco or Sam's Club?

I LOVE that store Kades!! Here it's called Cost Plus World Market. There are so many unusual items I could spend hours in that big store. It reminds me a lot of a similar store many many years ago called "Akron World Market". Do you happen to remember that?

I shop there all the time. They have a much better selection of wines than Trader Joes, in all qualities and price ranges. It's also a great place to get small containers of cooking essentials that you can only find in large sizes in the supermarkets, like chili paste, bean paste, fish sauce, oyster sauce, etc. I needed sweet chili sauce once and the supermarket only had it in a 1 liter bottle. I found it at Cost Plus in a 6 ounce bottle. They also carry a good selection of tchotchkes to fill in the empty spaces on your shelving, shadow boxes, or fireplace mantel. Oh, and don't forget scented candles, incense, and reed diffusers and scented oils.

Oh hell, just think Pier One, with food and beverages.

Speaking of wine, Sir Loin, have you tried ChocoVine (chocolate wine) from Holland sold at World Market? It's sounded really gaggy to me, but I sampled some my friend bought and couldn't wait to get over there again to get my own. It tastes like a White Russian to me...yumm yumm.

i have been in that one. what a treasure trove it is. two days would not be enough to see it all. one year i bought all christmas gifts there when we went for a weekend,.

It's called World Market here and they have all kinds of cool stuff. Great place to buy spices at very reasonable prices. Christmas is the coolest time with all of the imported candy, decor and such.

I love that they carry Cadbury chocolate from the UK, so much better than the US one.

I'll have to check that out the next time I'm there. I think that I remember reading something about that last year. I hope that they keep the formula the same and not make it waxy like Hershey's has done with most of their brands, they own the Cadbury name in the US I think.
