Random Item Wednesday - Hey, I'm Missing A Piece

We selected today's random item simply because we honestly didn't know things like this existed before today. It's the Puzzle Roll-Away Mat, designed to expertly store you unfinished puzzles!

Now, we can appreciate that there are some hard-core puzzle lovers out there who might find this handy, but here's our sticking point: Wouldn't these puzzlers have a designated spot for their puzzles so they wouldn't have to move it if company came over?

And if you're a casual puzzler, well, you probably didn't care that much about completing the puzzle anyway so, back in the box it goes! So, you can see why we're confused as to who, exactly, needs a puzzle storage mat. But hey, if you fall into that category, it can be yours for just $10.50! And if you need some puzzles to store in it, we have those too!
