Advent Jigsaw

My mum loves a good jigsaw puzzle, saw this on offer and thought I’d purchase as a stocking filler, she can either open or save until next Christmas either way my mum will love it thanks M&S great idea for an advent calendar

This jigsaw is very good . It has added challenge because each window you open has haphazard pieces .They can be any part of the picture. As the month progresses it becomes easier to match them. I have opened window 20 today so it's nearing completion . I hope you produce them again ( different picture ). It is great fun to do and has given me a daily break from Christmas activity . Added bonus is that the box makes a lovely scene with fairy lights on it .

I love this so much. I bought it for myself because I didn't feel like a cheap chocolate one, and I like puzzles. It helps that I have always liked doing puzzles, of course, but it's so much fun to piece it together slowly and try and fit things in as you go along. I am not letting anyone help me with it. Buy it even as a Christmas day puzzle - I have noticed it's very reduced now! It's very good quality in terms of the thickness/ stability of the puzzle pieces, and as long as I haven't lost any pieces I am going to keep this to do another year. I'm getting one next year, too - hope they change the picture!!

This is a lovely calendar, each day you get a packet of puzzle pieces. They are beautifully packaged and fit together well. You have to wait for a week to start but when you get going it is great. Would be happy to buy a different one next year.

super idea, if frustrating waiting until the next day for your pieces. whoever thought this up obviously understands puzzlers

Bought for my daughter-in-law as she loves doing jigsaw puzzles. I thought that she would be able to put together the puzzle pieces for each day. Disappointingly, it seems that you have to collect all/most of the pieces before beginning to make the puzzle. However, the quality is very good and I'm sure she will enjoy making it once she has enough pieces.

While this puzzle seems to be of good quality and a good price, it is NOT what I expected. I thought it would contain 25 mini-puzzles and that we'd complete one each day until Christmas when they'd collectively create a festive street scene. Most of the pieces of Day 1 do not link together and seem to come from all over the scene. I suspect we'll need wait many days until we have enough linked pieces to start assembling any part of this puzzle.

Saw this and bought 2, 1 each for myself and my friend, both jigsaw lovers. We've opened the first window today and already had fun texting about the pieces inside. PLEASE do these every year M&S, they're so different and giving us a daily fun thing to do :)))

Well what a brilliant idea , However very disappointing as I stupidly thought each day you get a piece of the puzzle you could piece together and by Christmas Day the whole puzzle would be finished, the concept is good , however day 1 only 4 of the 20+ pieces fit together This was very frustrating , my children have previously had advent calender that they make something each day and by 24th a science had been mad by linking all pieces together I thought this would be the same What a shame Puzzle seems good quality and price very good

I love jigsaws,so this advent calendar is my treat. By Christmas day I will have a 500 piece puzzle. That's my after dinner settled. Brilliant idea. Well done. Saved me from chocolate advents.
