That was actually a lot of fun to do. Thank you to all who participated especially as members of the peanut gallery. If you didn't get picked for this show please do try out for my next one. There was no favouritism or anything when it came to choosing I basically went with what I felt were the best and most thought out answers to my question and if there was a repeat answer it was first come first serve. Here's a rundown of the winnings:
TPIRFan9821 ($25,881)
Prizes ($5,800)
wpghi5 ($1,591)
patrickrox80 ($1,200)

geniusinmath ($300)
Jayprice05 ($300)
tpir04 ($300)
JayC ($300)
Now for a rundown about the show itself. I was inspired from earlier HYO shows that were 'evil' or 'mean'. I wanted to do something similar without giving the preface of it being 'evil'. The setups were challenging yes but not as challenging as they seemed:
Triple Play: All the correct choices were the last price therefore giving the biggest spread for the vehicle's ARP
Bargain Game: Y'all had it basically figured out with the differences bravo!
It's In the Bag: It was not set up to be fully won. My goal was to make the $1,000 an easy giveaway and hope someone would bail therefore guaranteeing them the $1,000
Take Two: The winning combo was the first two prizes.
Bonus Game: It was a crapshoot basically but by putting the bonus in the last window I hoped that that would've been the easiest of the four and had that been the only one right make for an exciting win.
Money Game: Nothing really easy about this one it was meant to be mean
Showcases: TPIRfan#9821 was a little bit low on the price of the spark but I feel if he had it in Canadian prices as all my shows are he may have gotten even closer. As for the Tacoma base price for the base model in Canada hovers around $40K and the picture was taken directly from the build and price website so what you saw was the actual model. Good on GameShowFan9001 for sleuthing that detail out.
It will be a little while before my next show as thankfully this one wrapped up when it did as I was surprised to find out this morning I go back to work next week with longer hours for the next two weeks leaving me little leisure time like the past 8 weeks. For my next show I plan to do a throwback to a year in the past featuring games AND PRIZES from that year so I hope that one works out. In the meantime thank you again to all who participated and I hope y'all stay safe and healthy!
