$1,810!



*ding*

$12 is a better range than most I'd say. The actual retail price of the shed: $1,450.



The winner is TPIRfan#9821! You'll come on up here and play our next pricing game. Up these steps, don't be shy. I'd like to give you this prize!

George: A harp!



Display a piece of history with this antique Lyon and Healy Semi-Grand pedal harp. Built in 1910, it's fully restored so you can use it to get in the habit of playing or as a conversation piece. It's guilded with gold leaf accents and a painted sound board.



It also comes with a matching case from the same period with its original hinges, latches, and working lock and key. A prize package worth $7,700!

Me: And that harp will be yours if you can hit the Bullseye.



We have five products down there. You need to use some math to zero in on that range between $10 and $12. We'll let you pick three of the five products in order to do that. Listen as George describes each one.



George: A 10-ounce package of Vigo saffron yellow rice: authentic pre-seasoned Spanish rice that not only makes a great side dish to your favorite meats, but it's the health-conscious alternative that's low in fat and high in taste.



A six-pack of 12-ounce Dr. Brown's black cherry soda cans. Enjoy the smooth and refreshing flavor of black cherry with your favorite soup or deli sandwich. Dr. Brown's, a New York City kosher favorite since 1869.



A 10-ounce bottle of Tapatío Hot Sauce. Add a bold and zesty flavor with your next Mexican meal in the comforts of your own home, and explore uncompromised taste of salsa picante with every shake of the bottle.



A 10.75-ounce can of Campbell's condensed tomato soup: made with quality farm-grown tomatoes to give you the famous taste you know and love. Now with sea salt as a healthy alternative, it's been enjoyed for generations.



Finally, from Pearls Specialties, a 6.7-ounce jar of sliced Kalamata Greek olives. Each olive is tree-ripened to a dark purple hue to give that strong flavor. Imported directly from Greece, they go great on pizza or salads.

TPIRfan#9821, now that you've heard about those five products, it's decision time. Pick one of those five items and tell me how many it takes to reach that target of $10 to $12. Remember, you can still make a mark on the board as long as your total is at least $2 but not more than $12. Which would you like first?

Hmm... Odd choice, but let's start out with 8 rice.
"If any show, forget sports, Price is Right, [the audience is] the star of the show. Somebody... coming on down and losing their minds, and ... crying, that's the show. The show isn't me, the show isn't necessarily [a] can of soup, how much that is, it's watching people go bananas, and there's going to be some of that missing."

-Drew Carey, interview with Athletic, September 16, 2020

"I honestly thought the doubler was gone, but 9821 going $0 makes sense"

Taking eight of the rice. I'll tell you that one package costs...



One dollar, sixty-nine cents. How much is eight?



*buzzer*

$13.52, and that's a little too much. Try again with another product.

Welcome back! George has good news for another person in the audience. Do tell, George.

George: I will, Kevin. That news is for wpghi5! Come on down! You're the next contestant on The Price is Right!

Me: Right over here on the audience's left, wpghi5. Now that we have a full house again, we'll show you the next Item up for Bids...

George: Two side tables!



A pair of mahogany side tables from Bodafors. Measuring two feet in height, they make great ends to either side of your sofa, loveseat or recliner. Each has a clean, simple design with tapering legs. They also come with a drawer that has a decorative oval brass handle.



Me: What's your bid, wpghi5?

$875!
Quote from: Bill Todman
"The sign of a good game, is when you don't have to explain it every day. The key is not simplicity, but apparent simplicity. Password looks like any idiot could have made it up, but we have 14 of our people working on that show. There is a great complexity behind the screen. It requires great work to keep it simple."
