Cost Plus World Market ( www.worldmarket.com : ) celebrates Black Friday for TWO days offering its customers deals throughout Thanksgiving weekend. It’s kicking off the holidays and shopping season by giving customers a chance to win VISA gift cards and two-day only savings like in-store BOGOs for holiday ornaments, toss pillows, bath gift sets, and more.

Black Friday is traditionally the day for retailers to offer great in-store savings for one day only, but World Market is expanding the savings into Saturday. And, also a chance to win a $10,000 and $5,000 VISA gift card!

The first 100 customers (age 21 and over) through the doors of all of World Market stores on Friday, December 27 will receive a

free, limited-edition Gingerbread House ornament and a Holiday Instant Win Game Piece for a chance to win a $10,000 VISA gift card.

In addition to giving out money, we’re way civilized. Most of our doors don’t open on Friday until 7:00 a.m. (check your local store for special holiday hours) and while you’re waiting for the doors to open, we’re setting up coffee and breakfast pastries to keep you energized.

Not to be left out, the first 200 customers through the doors on Saturday, December 28 will receive a free reusable tote bag with a 15% coupon. The tote bag and coupon allows customers to “stuff and save.” Customers can fill the tote bag and receive 15% off of that day’s purchases for an additional savings (excludes alcoholic beverages, gift cards, furniture, and kitchen electrics; see store associate for full details.)


Saturday shoppers (age 21 and over) will also receive a Holiday Instant Win Game Piece for a chance to win a $5,000 gift card (while supplies last). Other game prizes include a $2,500 VISA gift card and special in-store only savings coupons.

And, lastly for those who don’t want to leave the comfort of their own homes, one can always shop online 24/7 at www.worldmarket.com : , where you’ll find many online-only savings beginning on Thanksgiving Day.

World Market is the destination for entertaining, gift giving, home décor, and gourmet food and wine. Customers have been known to check off an entire gift list in one visit — from a 90+ point wine for the wine connoisseur to fine chocolates from Belgium for the chocoholic and “green” products for the eco-friendly to buffet plates for the hostess. World Market has unique and affordable gifts from around the world for everyone. And, World Market associates are always available to help with a suggestion or create a gift basket. Gift cards are always a safe choice and this year every gift card purchase made in-store beginning Sunday, December 29, customers will receive a mini felt stocking gift cardholder.
