| - 3.5 stars for a 5-star (almost) worthy place.
I have to take 1.5 stars off for location. Not that I blame them for jumping on the Retailopolis bandwagon. After all, after I'm done buying new tank tops at Old Navy, snatching make-it-yourself-floral fun from Michael's and convincing myself I can't live without this it's-too-random-to-be-true moose-head candelabra from Ross, I definitely have a hankering for wine. So, where to go... Oh yeah, World Market. While I'm there, let me pick up a selection of beers from around the world (I hear Holland has some good brew), browse the allegedly specialized food items and take a quick peak at their assortment of candles, smell-good bath things and kitchenware. But, let's face it, I go for the wine.
World Market suggests they sell things from around the world. While this is probably true (to a point), I both love and hate their wine selection (and I just plain hate how everything else takes up space that could be used for more wine). I love how their wines are divided by country and that you can find a really great wine for under $15 here. (Like Sexto from Spain) I just wish they had more! Yes, more wine! I said it. I want walls and walls of wine! A wall for Italy, a wall for Spain, a wall for Napa (it might as well be its own wine country)...
But, if my teeny tiny wish came true, they'd have to change their name from World Market to Wine Market (or Wine Heaven). Now, what would be so wrong with that?
