Pick up your online furniture order in-store
No one likes paying for shipping. And when you buy furniture, your often hit with an extra “oversized shipping fee.” For example, if you buy a sofa at World Market, you’ll be charged $75.00 to ship it to your home. When you’re already making a high-dollar purchase, the last thing you want is to add on more fees. The good news is, you can avoid that shipping cost altogether with World Market’s free in-store pick up option! Just check the “Pick Up in Store” box during the check-out process.
