Crossword Puzzle Solutions for Saturday, May 10 (NYT Edition)
Servin' Up Crossword Clues and Answers, Straight From the NYT Mini
Let's dive into the NYT Mini Crossword puzzles for the weekend! Here’s a rundown for today, May 10th, or check out yesterday's clues and solutions if you're catching up.
Remember, the NYT Mini is a fun, bite-sized version of the NYT's larger crossword. It's usually got around three to five clues in each direction on a 5x5 grid, but some days are a bit larger, even on Saturdays. So, put on your thinking cap and you'll be able to solve it for free on the NYT website or the NYT Games app1.
Without further ado, here are today's clues:
NYT Mini Across Clues and Answers
- A common tourist brochure item - MAP
- An Olympic award - MEDAL
- Any of the green plastic toys in Toy Story - SOLDIER
- Still on the loose - AT LARGE
- Driver's license or passport - PHOTO ID
- Pop sensation starring in the Eras Tour - SWIFT
- Sunscreen factor: Abbr. - SPF
NYT Mini Down Clues and Answers
- Chills out - MELOWS
- Prompt after swiping a card at an iPad cash register - ADD A TIP
- Form groups of two - PAIR OFF
- Flittering fliers around a fire - MOTHS
- Authentic - LEGIT
- Sticky substance - SAP
- Red road sign - NO TURN
I took 1:14 to finish today's NYT Mini – not bad for a Saturday! I tackled most of the Across clues first, tripped up on MAP, and struggled with PHOTO ID before moving on. I snagged the Down clues on my initial attempt, but I thought SPF was "ozs" due to an oversight of the clue.
Stay tuned for more crossword fun tomorrow!
