Weekly Pricing Show - Week 1
« on: July 29, 2016, 10:11:17 AM »
*Hello all, I am here to kick off and host the first week of the Weekly Pricing Game!!!

*Before anyone asks, I did get the green light from Roadgeek Adam to start this today. So don't think I'm going rogue.  :-)

*The rules are fairly simple. I will put up an IUFB today and everyone is free to give one bid on the item.

*Then, next week at some point (I'll do Tuesday, but I guess it's at the discretion of the week's host), who ever is the closest to the actual price without going over gets to come up on stage and play a pricing game.

*Obviously, don't cheat and look up prices. Also, if the week's winning player doesn't respond within 24 hours (I'll PM the winner), the next closest player can come up and play the game.

*Finally, and most important, have fun. We all share a love for The Price is Right, let's embrace it.

And with that note, let's get started with the first item on the Weekly Pricing Show!!!!


{applause}
{Door 2 opens}




This giant swing set is crafted of solid cedar wood framing, includes a Wiki Wave slide, a trapeze swing and a deluxe rope ladder. Basically, it's an adventure park in your backyard.



Now everyone is free to give their bids until Tuesday, August 2 at 1:00pm ET

All of the bids are in and the price of the swing set is...





...so get on up here, pathfinder20!!

{crowd cheers}
{walks to center stage}


Your bid was the best of the lot. So we are going to reward you handsomely, and here's how!!!


{door 3 opens}


It's a BRAND NEW CAR!!!!



From Toyota, this 2017 Camry XLE comes with 6-speed automatic transmission, cargo tray, first aid kit, alloy wheel locks, rear spoiler and a floor mat package. The Toyota Camry XLE!!!

{applause from crowd}



One thing I can guarantee, that is the shiniest car I've ever seen.

{some laughter}

Anyways, One Away is the name of the game. Each number is, shockingly, one away from the correct number.

Move each digit the right way and you will win the world's shiniest car.

*Thinks the first number should be a 4, the second number should be a 5, third number should be 9, fourth number should be a 6, and last number should be a 4

$27,984, that definitely looks like...a price. But is it the right price?

You're going to have to beg, plead and straight up kiss the behind of our mighty sound effects lady backstage to find out.  :-D

So do me a favor and ask her, in your most sincere voice, if you have at least one number right.

{pathfinder20 asks question}




...





HONK
{audience claps}

There WILL be a second part to the game. Now ask her if you have two right.

{pathfinder20 asks question}











...












BEEP BEEP
{loud audience applause}


Varying the horn sound, I see. That might be good, so keep going for three.

{pathfinder20 asks question}













...














AWOOOOGA
{audience confusion}


I talked to the producer and I can say that there is a car out there that makes that sound, so you're still in it. Ask for four numbers.

{pathfinder20 asks question}

















...


















TOOT TOOT
{crazy loud audience cheers}


Toot? That's quite a stretch. But, alas, a sound effect is a sound effect. Ask her as nicely as you can if you have all five numbers right.

{pathfinder20 gets on one knee and asks question}










You're not proposing, are you?

{says no}

Just making sure.  :-)










...


















...










{audience falls in disbelief}

I think that's a combination of only having 4 numbers right and not having anymore car horn sound effects in stock.  :lol:



If you can change the one wrong number, you'll be the proud owner of that car.

{crowd starts yelling and pointing}
