[Ccook]

Our CBS station was covering a plane crash on one of our interstate highways so Price got bumped here.

[pannoni1]

Cover Up: Poor strategy results in a difficult final choice, which wasn't bad but wasn't the correct one. Too bad.

Switch: Easy due to the distance rule.

Grand Game: I felt that the body wash was much cheaper because that winning product look gormuet, but nice to see a win, along with another $1,000 on the wheel!

Balance Game: Its a shame Drew forgot to reveal the correct price, as I'm 99% sure it was $6600 since no prize package has been under $5000 this season. I was just hoping that the scale wouldn't break so the game could be played again. 

Shell Game: Of course over $20K in cash was available in case of a bonus, and although the third prize was tricky and followed almost everyone, a decent mix of difficulty of the SPs and a nice win! Every day this week has had at least one car won!

Most Expensive: Unfortunately the 4K Smart TV fooled 'em, as Kate Spade isn't quite Jimmy Choo expensive.

Showcases: After seeing the similar Mercedes Model on LMAD prior to the show (too bad it wasn't won there too), I sounded the over alert, given that it was only around $33,000 and first class for two is still only around $2K due to the fairly short flight (and first class is only equivalent to business overseas anyways, or even economy plus on the highest planes). The second was your typical shabby Bali 'case that is a frequent producer of overbids, preceded by a treadmill, sauna, and two smartphones.

Overall: Not quite as good as earlier in the week, but a pretty good lineup with reasonable setups and the Mother's Day theme went smoothly. But a week that is 20/30 is definitely one of the best of the season.

Show Grade: C+
Week Grade: A-

[TinoStar11]

After what happened with the Wheelchair contestant a few days ago , it was so weird to see a Treadmill and a Sauna paired up in the Showcase.

[CheckGameMeBob]

After what happened with the Wheelchair contestant a few days ago , it was so weird to see a Treadmill and a Sauna paired up in the Showcase.

It wouldn't surprise me if they were the exact prizes from that playing of One Right Price (they looked identical)

[whammy007]

The treadmill may have been the same. The sauna, however was not - the ORP sauna was Crystal while the Showcase sauna was from Almost Heaven.

[Bobby McBride]

Cu: At least one more chance was required- I was thinking $19,800+ at first.

shell game: It was played for an automobile for (I think) the first time in the current era & won!

A shame this ended w/ a DOB; they still haven't given away the Mercedes CLA250.

After much delay and a long day, recap's up.
