Default PBK Block Puzzle

Has anyone seen something similar to this but cheaper? It's $39 at PBK, which isn't bad but their shipping prices are ridiculous.

These aren't exactly the same, but same concept where the blocks create 6 different pictures, and there is a good selection. $13 each.

I'm pretty sure Melissa and Doug sell a puzzle like that as well. Guessing the M&D puzzle would be much cheaper than PBK's!

And here are instructions to make your own:

My 5yr old dd has one that is 16 blocks and she loves it. I think the 9 block ones might be too easy for her.

The 9 block ones would be too easy for DD. I'll have to search for the M&D one.

If you use the '68' trick on this it comes down to $23.99

Basically, search for 68-5688395 in the search bar and it should come up.

Still has the shipping, but saves you some money.
