How do you do it in 3 Strikes, Ten Chances, or Any Number?
3 Strikes could easily have a car worth $x
7,xxxTen Chances could easily have a middle prize worth something in the $7,000 range; it could also end with a car worth $x
7,xxx. Ditto for Any Number.
And how do you do it in Balance Game outside of having it on one of the bags?
The actual retail price of the prize in this game could fall someplace in the $7,000 range (or as you said, might also come about with that number on one of the bags).
And how do you do it in Bonus Game outside of having the bonus prize cost $7,000?
That's what I was thinking.
For most of the day, my guess is that "seven thousand" will appear in prices more often than usual (kind of like a running gag). I'd almost bet money that $7,000 will be the correct retail price on the first IUFB of the day (hey, we've seen everything else these past two seasons, why not that?). It's just a hunch, of course, but I'm also guessing that since Double Prices is confirmed as one of the games, there will be two four-digit choices, one beginning with a 7 and one beginning with some other number. 'tis my guess that whatever price starts with the 7 will be the correct one.
I'm almost afraid to envision the Showcases though. I can just see them offering 7,000 of something (a "year's supply" more likely, that just happens to total 7,000) in showcase #1, and in showcase #2 ending with something "guaranteed to get 7,000 miles before needing an oil change."
