We need a puzzle infusion!

For the longest time, we’ve stated that “we generally end up taking in more puzzles than go out the door so we’re not worried about running out of puzzles anytime soon.”

Well whaddayaknow, it appears that both locations are, in fact, beginning to see a few more puzzles go out the door than we are taking in. Although we’re not yet worried about running out of puzzles,, we do need to think about ways to reverse the tide and get more puzzles coming IN again. To that end, we thought a good starting point would be to ask our puzzlers to bring in some of those puzzles they have stashed away in closets and storerooms. You might also take a look at your unworked collections and see if there’s anything you’ve been holding onto that you just aren’t ever really gonna get around to working.

Have a safe week and we look forward to seeing you on Friday!
