Did anyone notice during One Wrong Price, that there was a weird light-blue thing between door #1 and door #2?  It was gone by Barker's Bargain Bar.  Anyone know what the heck that was?

As others have mentioned, that's the backside of a piece of fabric or maybe foam that hangs between doors one and two to conceal the various outlets installed in that space. They unplugged Balance Game from that section, but forgot to flatten the cover back against the doors before the next act began.

SB had evil SP's mixed with a bailout that didn't go well and you can just feel sorry for the poor guy, but not for long come later.

$11,774 trip to Paris?!!! Dang.

OWP player made up her mind quickly and on her own and I applaud her.

P-A-P...simple.

Those Dodge Calibers are uber-cheap.

Spelling Bee-OUCH!!  Against great odds, he did have one of the two "CAR" cards!

Balance Game-$11,000+ for a trip to Paris?!  That's pretty steep, I was thinking it would be in the $8,000-range.

One Wrong Price-Easy enough.

Pick-a-Pair-Another easy setup.

Barker's Bargain Bar-I knew that the ice shaving cart would be the bigger bargain.

Line em Up-Since the Dodge Caliber is the new entry-level car for Dodge, I knew it would fetch between $14,000-16,000 in price.  With those options, I knew it would be in the upper $14,000 range.

Showcases-The greeting card showcase was interesting.  Here are my bids/differences:

Trip/SUV-$26,500/$686.
Port o Price-$16,500/$270.

Spelling Bee-Oh man, that sucks to lose with 2 cards when one of them is a CAR card.  First time in awhile I've seen someone get a CAR card, too.

Balance Game-$11,000 for a trip?  Wow, that's a pretty expensive trip.  It's weird that trips early in the run were only 3 digits, now they're 5.

One Wrong Price-I thought the sofa was wrong.

I don't know what kind of room they offered in the trip, but nice hotel suites can cost a couple thousand dollars a night or even more, especially at a 5-star or otherwise prestigious hotel. I can see how a trip to Paris could cost that much, but I'm a little surprised TPiR would offer one at that price, considering the trip is for two people and a suite at that price would have to be HUGE. I wonder what kind of discount TPiR gets for hotel accomodations.

Once again, it's the $14,985 Calibur! Keep watching for it.

I wasn't able to see this show until today, but it wasn't really that good.

The Spelling Bee loss was painful. I believe that has happened before, though.

The $11,000 trip in Balance Game is definitely the most expensive Paris trip I've ever seen.
