Puzzle Me This? Jigsaws Are Red Hot And Selling Out During The Pandemic!
After you stand up from watching too many hours of Netflix, and nearly fall over from being dizzy, rub your eyes because you can’t focus… take a deep breath. The world is searching to find things to do outside of endless hours in front of a screen. Step away from your stream and your screen, and find a puzzle in your game closet!
That’s what seems to be happening. In fact, jigsaw puzzles are selling out. Think about it. Puzzle makers weren’t prepared for this. How could they be. None of us were. According to the country’s biggest puzzle maker, Ravensburger, sales are up 370%! The solution would normally be to produce more product, but since manufacturers are not considered essential businesses, that is not happening.
Working on a jigsaw puzzle right now? You aren't the only one. At Ravensburger, the global market leader in puzzle making, sales are up 370%. https://t.co/J1Urha3IRk
