If you’re like me, Secret Santa sounds so fun in the moment, and then a few weeks later, the panic hits when I realize I still haven’t picked up a gift. It’s hard to buy a person you don’t know super well a gift they’re still going to be excited about. The solution? Get them a puzzle that could win them a million dollars. Yes, really.

Whether it’s for Secret Santa, the husband who “has everything he needs,” or the mother-in-law who’s impossible to shop for, the very best gift the internet is talking about this year is the MSCHF 2 Million Dollar Puzzle, a puzzle that could hold the key to the recipient winning a million dollar prize.

How the MSCFH 2 Million Dollar Puzzle Works

You’ve got until December 16 (a little under five days) to purchase the MSCHF puzzle. Once you do, you assemble the pieces, which form a QR code that you then scan with your phone. From there, you find out which prize you won. You can win anywhere from $1 to $1 million dollars. So yes, a cash prize of SOME KIND is guaranteed. If you gift someone two puzzles, they actually have a chance to win $2 million, since there are two puzzles made with a $1 million prize each (hence the name 2 Million Dollar Puzzle — there are two out there).

You can pick up one puzzle for $29.99 and keep it for yourself, or gift it to others — or you can buy a three-pack of puzzles for $54.99 and hedge your bets. That means you’ll save 54 percent on the regular price and spend just $13.75 per puzzle. That means you can cross four people off your gift list or three, or two and keep a few for yourself. Or keep them all yourself and spend Christmas assembling money-making puzzles.

Finally, there’s an option to buy 10 puzzles at once for just $99.98. If you go that route, you’ll score the most savings since you’ll spend just under $10 on each puzzle. This is perfect if you’re looking for a unique way to gift a lot of people at once. Why give your neighbor or coworker another mug that they’ll just let collect dust on their desk forever when you can give them a chance to win $1 million? We support all the options.

After all, with this puzzle game, you’re 150 times more likely to win the $1,000,000 prize in this puzzle than win the lottery jackpot. And 3,045 times more likely to win the prize than the NYC lottery jackpot. We like those odds a whole lot more. Just make sure to order by December 16 to ensure delivery for December 25.
