Say “NO” to the Internet Sales Tax Legislation!

Let’s join with eBay and say No! to the Internet Sales Tax.  Did you know there is a bill, called The Marketplace Fairness Act, that would institute new sales tax requirements for online sales coming up for a vote in Congress?  This would mean that all our customers would need to pay a sales tax on anything purchased on our website.

If you would like to continue to buy jigsaw puzzles from A+ Puzzles, Etc. without paying an extra sales tax no matter where you live, would you like to join us in contacting your congressman to at least put in an exemption for small businesses like us.

You can click here to send a letter to your member of Congress to protect small businesses by putting in an exemption for the internet sales tax for small business in the Marketplace Fairness Act.

Do you know which of our Patriotic Jigsaw Puzzles that Jigzy worked on this week?

JIGZY (the A+ Puzzles, Etc. Mascot)Yes, our mascot Jigzy is having fun with jigsaw puzzles again this week.   What else would he be doing, right? :)   In celebration of Independence Day and the birth of our Great Nation this week, Jigzy enjoyed putting one of our many patriotic jigsaw puzzles together.  It is called “4th of July” (Such a unique name, right? lol)  The jigsaw puzzle had 1000 pieces and measured 20″ by 27″ when it was completed.

Then, after completing his jigsaw puzzle with all the fireworks,  Jigzy decided to go outside, watch and enjoy some live fireworks that evening.  Jigzy hopes you all had a great July 4th holiday too as we celebrate 236 years of our nation.

A+ Puzzles, Etc. Honors Thomas Kinkade (Part 2)

We continue with looking at Thomas Kinkade, his work, his art, and of course Thomas Kinkade puzzles.  As Ken Raasch told the Mercury News, Thomas Kinkade wanted to give people warm and positive images.  “I’d see a tree as being green, and he would see it as 47 shades of green”, Raasch said about Thomas Kinkade.  “He just saw the world in a much more detailed way than anyone I’ve ever seen.”

Peaceful MomentsSpeaking of shades of green, in our featured Thomas Kinkade puzzle today, notice the  light reflected in the grass near the cottage, and the different shades of green that just bring out the grass in the typical unique style of the “Painter of Light” Thomas Kinkade.  This 1000-piece Thomas Kinkade puzzle entitled “Peaceful Moments” manufactured by Ceaco has dimensions of 20 by 27 inches, and this jigsaw puzzle is one of our recent new arrivals of Thomas Kinkade puzzles that are available.

Stay tuned for our next post as we will continue with sharing some more interesting facts and quotes about Thomas Kinkade.
