Finally, you and a guest will fly round-trip coach from Los Angeles to Seattle.  You’ll stay 5 nights at the Westin Galleria in Dallas, located near the upscale Dallas Galleria of shops, and near the Dallas arboretum and World Aquarium.

Can you clarify if the third trip is to Dallas or to Seattle?  I see both in the description.

Holy crud, my bad.  The third trip is definitely to Dallas.  My first draft had it to Seattle, but I hate rain.

Well, private cottages suggest they would be, well, pricey, so that gets the 3...

Boston is east coast, Dallas is Texas - and everything's bigger in Texas while east coast is usually cheaper everything over west coast, so...

Boston, Dallas, Miami.

Seems like the logical answer, time to be surprised. :D

After some confusion from the host, Cyclone has made his selections.

You placed the 1 block by Boston.  Show is the price of that trip to Boston....


Next, you have Dallas.  Is the price of the trip to Dallas higher than the price of the trip to Boston?

Let's see it...





BUZZ!  Oh no.  No trips for you.... Let's see the price to Miami.


Well, hope you enjoy your hall tree hangy thing....

One more week of bidding folks.

Update going into week 12:

Gameshowboy92 has over $42,000 in summer winnings, and is in line to be the top winner in the showcase.

In our FPG, OneBidTris earned 2 more points this week and has a total of 26 points, and could earn the second showcase spot.  Shaymin is in 2nd with 8 points.  ASja2002 and RCPlanes59 have not scored.

One last thing.  I am ditching Comcast for Verizon this weekend, and they will be at my house Sunday morning.  The final item up for bids will be posted when I have my internet back on.

That is all.  Nothing to see here.

Well, I knew the third trip in order, those first two could have gone either way.  Oh well. XD

We started off in June, looking for a cure to the summer rerun doldrums.  Now here we are starting off week 12, which means the new season can't be close behind.  And with that, here is the LAST item up for bids in the Weekly Summer Pricing Game....

It’s a brass bed!


This queen size brass bed features and old-time finish and decorative accents, perfect for any adult bedroom.  And, a mattress and boxspring by Simmons.  The Simmons Beautyrest boxspring and mattress will ensure many years of peaceful sheep-counting.
