She has $70 + a $20 gift card = $90 available.

Calculate totals:
- Radio + speakers: 65.95 + 29.99 = 95.94
- Five books: 18.95 × 5 = 94.75
- Headphones + 8 CDs: 25.99 + (8.99 × 8) = 25.99 + 71.92 = 97.91
- Six puzzles + board game: (11.99 × 6) + 15.89 = 71.94 + 15.89 = 87.83

Only the last total (87.83) is ≤ $90, so she can buy the six puzzles and the board game.
