BIG Summer Jigsaw Puzzle Haul! How many puzzles did I get this summer?

- I went on a bit of a shopping spree this summer, getting a bunch of brand new puzzles! I had a bunch of credit card and reward points saved up during covid because I didn't really travel or go anywhere. And I splurged and got a few puzzle brands I have seen but have not yet tried.
I meant to publish this puzzle haul video last month, before the thrifting haul even. But work got really busy, got a few more new puzzles and had to re-edit, and I wanted to try to edit this video a bit differently. It is still a "silent" video but hopefully a bit more fun. Editing is hard!
I am always trying to improve, so let me know if there's something you don't like about the video or if there is anything I can do better!

And my walls are covered in puzzle art too! 🎉 I went on a gluing frenzy and have a stack i can rotate through 😊
That is also my goal! I bough some giant IKEA frames so I can switch out the artwork 🎨
You've never built a Cobble Hill puzzle? You are in for a treat! It's one of the best puzzle brands. It's definitely the best random cut brand.
Nice haul!
Not yet, very excited for it!
👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome haul!! Cobble Hill brand is high quality, love their puzzles. New York Puzzle Companies puzzles are really good! White Mountain as well I have done quite a few of theirs and have a lot in my to do pile. Thank you for sharing 🙂🙂🙂🧩🧩🧩
Thank YOU for watching! ❤ Both Cobble Hill and NYPC I am very excited to try out since they are non-ribbon random cuts. I've found that I really enjoy those types of puzzles after finishing some Bits & Pieces!
That colourful set by Josie Lewis was amazing.
Yes! I was very lucky to find it!
Ooh what a great haul video! First off, loved that ASMR of all the boxes opening. You picked some excellent puzzles. I really like all the "four seasons" variety of puzzles. And that pomegranate one looks so hard! I love the ones you picked out for display on the wall, that Galison one is just gorgeous. I've got my eye on some of their Labor Day sales now.
I'm so glad you liked the ASMR, definitely what I was going for! I am a little obsessed with the "four seasons" type of puzzles, even when it is scenery or the usual tree motif you often see.
About that Pomegranate -- I was considering including that as another "regret" but that 3000pc was just so overwhelming (it still is) so it won out 😅
Trust that I am having a REALLY hard time keeping away from the Galison sale and practicing some self control lol. I haven't even browsed! If I did, I know I wouldn't be able to help myself.
That was a magnificent haul! Lots of lovely puzzles to keep you occupied for some time to come. 😃 There were quite I few that I liked but no point in attempting to get them, as postage costs to the UK will be very high. ☹ I've just started a Ravensburger 1000 piece jigsaw called Blooming Beautiful.
Oooof I can relate with the postage.. there's so many UK, European, and Aussie puzzles I would LOVE to get, but the postage cost is a barrier. Blooming Beautiful looks like a lot of fun! ❤
What a lovely haul! I hope you can get some foam-core or similar to do the 3,000-piece one from Bits and Pieces. It will look very different once you get going - the images for a lot of large puzzles look crowded because they're so small. I recently did the Ravensburger 2000-piece Cinderella one (sometimes called "The Glass Slipper") and the picture on the box is very "busy", but the image in puzzle form is gorgeous, and you can see all the elements clearly.
I am thinking of assembling a mega-sized foam core surface for that 3000 piece. I figured it will not be my last large sized puzzle so I might as well get used to it.
Just looked up the "The Glass Slipper" Ravensburger... oh my the image is STUNNING even though it is "busy" -- I am adding that to my wishlist! Thank you for sharing that!
Fred has 2 black cat puzzles (by the same artist). Both equally pretty. That was the brown 500 piece puzzle. The other one is 250 pieces and blue ❤
Yes! I got the 250 piece during black friday sales, very excited!
Nice puzzle haul.
Thank you!
Nice haul and beautiful puzzles!
Thank you!
I have a couple of those puzzles. - night at the movies and trefl gradient - not that I've done them yet.
The Trefl gradient was a beast to work on. I thought it was going to be easy peasy, but then it took me DAYS to work on
If it makes you feel better, Amazon delivered a puzzle to me recently by just slapping the address label on there. You're not alone. Mine was a Ravensburger Treasures from the Vault puzzle I hadn't done. I couldn't resist since it was less than $9 for a 1000 piece Ravensburger. At least Ravensburger is in plastic wrap. Would have been worse on a Buffalo one.
A lesser known brand that you should try if you haven't tried it is Hallmark. Hallmark makes their own brand of puzzles. Avoid the new ones in the weird cylinders. The quality is lacking there. Find the ones in the square boxes. If you have a Hallmark store near you, they likely will have a few designs. Alas, they don't make a lot of puzzles a year (only a few designs), and the new quality is not as great. White Mountain is still my #1, then Ravensburger, then Cobble Hill (if you like Ravensburger, Cobble Hill also does the linen finish like Ravensburger), then it is Hallmark in the square boxes.
For future Amazon orders, I am going to order it with something else rather than by itself, lesson learned! $9 for a Ravensburger, amazing!
I'll keep my eyes peeled for the Hallmark brand! Thank you for the recommendations!
@@Cozy-Puzzles They can still ship it separately, even if you choose to have everything delivered on one day. I chose to add my Ravensburger to another order that week. They still shipped them separately. It has to do with which warehouse they come from.
This happened to me too with an Elena Essex puzzle! And I ordered another item, that they put in a box... and they came at the same time. Made no sense...
I noticed the sale Blue Kazoo was having and wanted to take advantage of it. I was having some money issues at the time though so didn't have the spare cash. Ah well, maybe next time. You managed a great haul though and gave me some puzzles to look for sometime.
Thank you! I feel like Blue Kazoo has a decent sale once a quarter. My guess/hope that they will have a good Black Friday sale so I have been saving up.
I love puzzlelife! I did the mermaid one too 😊
You have enough now you shouldn't have to do a haul for a while!
You'd be surprised 😅
Smart, I also only use my credit card points when I want to splurge on brand new puzzles. Otherwise I thrift my puzzles for the most part
Under normal circumstances, I only really thrift as well! I LOVE thrifting. For brand new puzzles, I only splurge on something that I REALLY want when its my birthday, anniversary, xmas, or if I got a promotion or raise at work or something. Otherwise, it's time to save up the credit card points!
@@Cozy-Puzzles how many puzzles do you have anyway
@@mehchocolate1257 about 200 now? Some are for the permanent collection and others are done and will be sold/traded/donated. Not including the dollar store puzzles.
@@Cozy-Puzzles that's a lot of puzzles
I wonder if you have perhaps accidentally checked the save on packaging ship in manufacturers container option?
That is a possibility 🤔
Remember me when you get popular
Lol, just doing this for fun. No intentions of becoming a full time content creator
Also have all four of those blue kazoo puzzles- haven't done them either. Did you get them when they were $5?
YES! I did! I only buy sale puzzles. It has to be something really special for me to pay full price (and even then I will look around for coupons lol)
