I recently wrote about saving money on groceries, and am following up with some info on a good place to do some last-minute holiday shopping, World Market. I shop at the Pentagon Row location, but there is also one in Friendship Heights.

They currently have 50% off of Asian ceramic sets (teapot and sushi plate sets), lotion/bubble bath sets (they call it something else), and only on the December 23rd, HOLIDAY CANDY! Peppermint bark, here I come!

Plus, join their “Explorer Club” and you can print out coupons from the site and their emails, some of which can be combined. Yesterday I combined a 10% off coupon with a $10 off of $30 coupon, and some of my items were already 50% off. They have a good selection of snacks, spices, tea, coffee, etc. They have wine, but I’m unsure if the coupons apply to that.

As of Thursday, there will be a new Pinkberry in town, (on M Street) just in time for the holidays. “The new Pinkberry (3288 M Street, NW) will open its doors in Georgetown for the first time on Thursday, December 22nd, and offer a special winter treat to all shoppers: one free small Pinkberry from 12 to 4 p.m. Stop by their newest Georgetown location and share in the wonderment!” Can you say no to a free frosty treat…even in the winter?
