Oof... almost a real perfecto at least for this version.

...$20 T2 difference?

Again, here are some montages of the games played today, so interested observers can get a look at the games from this show...

Clearly, Drew is not the only Price host who is too lazy to do certain reveals himself...although at least Larry can host well on a far more consistent basis. Except for using the correct name of It's In The Bag.

Other than the question marks of Secret X resembling their American counterpart (which in turn resemble the question mark of What's My Line?), the props still look tacky and unfinished.

And, once again, prices were not revealed, but Margaret clearly won less than $1,500 and $724 + BBQ. Ladies and gentlemen, that is cheap.

So far, we have seen Hi-Lo, Cliff Hangers, Squeeze Play, Pick-A-Pair, Plinko, Push Over, It's In The Bag, Secret X, and Take Two. The press release mentions Check Out, Safe Crackers, and Hole In One (the last of which has been seen in action), so there are two games still unaccounted for.
