Goods to Go: Personalized Puzzle Maps

Since I've been blogging a bit about maps lately (both the incredibly detailed, and distinctly less so) I couldn't help but get excited when I started poking through the National Geographic holiday catalog and found their Personalized Puzzle Maps. At the risk of ruining a few family members gifts this year, I felt the urge to share the details.

Each map is unique, and all you have to do is provide your address as the starting point, and the map elves will create a 400-piece puzzle of the area around your home using a U.S. Geological Survey map. And the best part? The center puzzle piece is in the shape of a house, and its placed exactly where your own home is found. You have to order by phone (+1 888 225 5647) and the cost is $39.95

For more great holiday gifts (including fun travel items like the pocketed security sock) check out the rest of the catalog. And since we're all friends here, be sure to use the Friends and Family discount code: 08HFF20 while checking out (good through Dec. 7).
