Snack Treats Puzzle from Springbok

Oh sure, why not get another puzzle that makes us hungry while we put it together? I thought we learned our lesson when we did the sandwich puzzle. Or the ice cream shop puzzle. But nope. We had to make the Snack Treats puzzle from Springbok. And we’re glad we did! There are so many fun treats to be found in this puzzle. It was fun finding snacks we had as kids. Or adults. And yes, it made us hungry!

The Dreaded Missing Piece

We bought this Snack Treats puzzle from Springbok at an antique mall. The box was a little beat up. It was definitely used. You always run a risk buying a used puzzle. And for the first time, we got one that was missing a piece. And not some obscure corner piece that you might not notice either. Nope. It’s right there smack dab in the middle. I don’t think it could get any more obvious. Well, it adds character, right? And the price was right too. The missing piece did not detract from our enjoying this puzzle.

The Last Piece

This puzzle did not include a poster, but keep in mind we bought ours used so maybe a new one includes a poster. There are 1000 pieces in this puzzle. The assembled puzzle is about 30″ wide and 24″ high. The pieces fit very well and the image quality on the pieces is fantastic. The colors were great and the pieces are cut perfectly. This is a quality puzzle that brings hours of enjoyment.

Village Grocer Puzzle from the Vermont Christmas Company

I don’t know why, but I love vintage store puzzles. Them and bookstores. Maybe it’s the items on the shelves. The colors. I’m not sure. It’s always interesting to find out what was on the shelves back in the day. Back when shopping wasn’t this sterile experience like it is today. Look at this Village Grocer puzzle from the Vermont Christmas Company for example. Look at the produce. The flowers. The shelves. Ok, so maybe it’s not realistic, but I like it and I liked doing this puzzle!

Great Fit, Great Colors. Great Puzzle.

When you step back and look at a puzzle after you put in the last piece and smile, that’s a great moment. That’s why you puzzle. Or at least why I do. It’s doubly special when the puzzle is made with quality. From the cut to the thickness to the colors. I really enjoyed this Village Grocer puzzle from the Vermont Christmas Company.

The Last Piece

This puzzle contains 1000 pieces. The final puzzle is about 24″ high and 30″ wide. The pieces are small but thick and fit really well. The image is crisp and bright. This is a great, quality puzzle! It does not include a poster but the box image is clear and easy to work from.

Cereal Box Puzzle Set from White Mountain

One of the most dangerous places for us to walk into is a store that sells puzzles. Self-control? Non-existent as soon as we grab the door handle. Remorse? Never! This time the ‘culprit’ was the Puzzled Fun & Games store located in what is called The Island in Pigeon Forge, TN. You talk about puzzle heaven! This store is a great place to pass away an hour or two, going down aisle after aisle looking at puzzle after puzzle. We immediately proceeded to make a pile of puzzles at the checkout counter. One of the first to go on the stack was this Cereal Box Puzzle Set from White Mountain.

Fun! And More Fun!

This set consists of 6 boxes, each a different puzzle, 100 pieces each. Yep, they’re packaged just like the single serving cereal boxes of our childhood. The graphics on the pieces were bright and colorful. The pieces fit perfectly. They’re smaller puzzles that aren’t too hard to complete but they were super fun to put together.

Flashbacks

The fun part of assembling the Cereal Box Puzzle Set from White Mountain was of course thinking back to our younger days when sugary cereals were more common in our diets! But I do admit, I had some frosted flakes out of a small box at a hotel breakfast just the other day! The only thing missing were the morning cartoons on TV!

The Last Piece

Each ‘cereal box’ puzzle comes in its own resealable baggie. There is no poster included with this puzzle, but honestly you really don’t need one. Each puzzle is about 9″ high and 7″ wide. This is a fun puzzle and would make for a great gift for all ages!

Pretty As A Pitcher Puzzle from White Mountain

We both really enjoyed putting together this Pretty As A Pitcher puzzle. Available from White Mountain, it has 1000 pieces. We purchased it at our local grocery store, Meijer. Meijer often has pretty good sales on puzzles. We make it a habit to walk down to the ‘other end’ of the store where the puzzles are any time we are shopping for groceries. It’s rare that we come away empty handed. And often, we come away with a puzzle from White Mountain.

Quality And Fit

As with the other White Mountain puzzles we’ve done, we found the quality of this Pretty As A Pitcher puzzle to be good. The pieces fit well. They were random cut, which is something I prefer. There was just a bit of dust in the box when we opened it and started sorting.

Fun And Rewarding

The colors on the pieces were bright and crisp. And although there are several pitchers in the picture that are similar in design and color, it wasn’t difficult to tell the pieces apart. The wood shelves were slightly more challenging but not so much so. We wouldn’t call it a particularly difficult puzzle. But we would definitely call it fun!

The Last Piece

The finished puzzle was around 24″ high and 30″ wide. The box included a color poster, which is always a plus for us since we each like to have a picture of the final puzzle while we are assembling it.
