I have a teeny little confession to make. I've never been able to solve a Rubik's cube. I grew up in a house where an entire shelf of our game cabinet was filled with different versions of the classic puzzle, and I watched my friends and brother complete them with what seemed like next to no effort.
I haven't thought about these puzzles in years, but I'm determined to give them another shot. I don't actually own one, though, so I'll probably stop by Mastermind Toys soon. To celebrate the brand's 40th anniversary, ALL Rubik's products they have in stock are now 40% off, and prices start at just $5.99!
The original 3x3 Rubik's Cube is marked down to $9.59 from $15.99, and that's enough of a challenge for me. But if you want to try something a little more puzzling, know that these things can get complicated. There's are two versions that add on even more little squares: the Rubik's Cube 4x4 and a 5x5 model.
You'd think that something like their downsized puzzle might be a little easier, but the product description for this Rubik's Cube 2x2 warns that it "It might look easy but don’t be fooled – it is still a challenge." This particular toy still has "3,674,160 permutations and only one solution," and you can pick one up for $6.59.
BigMouth inflatable sleds are also marked down at Mastermind Toys, including this Big Winter Unicorn snow tube that's on clearance for $20.99 from $29.99. Shipping is free if you spend at least $35.
