My grocery shopping today landed me two new Peanuts “books”.<\/p>\n

The more bookish of the two is the latest edition of The Great Big Book of Peanuts Word Seeks<\/strong>, volume 5 to be precise, which as I’ve mentioned before I’ll allow to qualify as a book… particularly because it not only has strip reprints, it has more strips than a Fawcett Crest collection! I think this is the third of them which I have, and I’m not sure I’ll be a completist on this… but if you aim to be, volumes 2-4 are still available from the publisher<\/a>. (But if you’re just looking for Peanuts Word Seeks magazines and don’t particularly care about the Big Bookedness, you can get a good deal on a dozen issues.<\/a>)<\/p>\n

The\u00a0Snoopy Candy Fun Book<\/strong> does open its cover to reveal a few puzzles, but the main stuff is in the box that makes 93% of the books depth: ten lollipops and some stickers. I do not need lollipops and stickers, so I’ve not unboxed them. And At $1.25, this was a deal… a particularly maddening deal. You see, I stumbled across it at a much higher price on Amazon<\/a> yesterday, and thinking I’d not see it in the wild, I ordered it. That one’s arriving tomorrow. So why’d I buy another copy today? Because it seemed like a bargain, relatively…. which is really not a wise way to view something that I do not need.<\/p>\n

But I’m always amused when a Peanuts item lets you know that it doesn’t include peanuts.<\/p>\n
