dang it LiteBulb with your optimal bidding strategy

$798 for AvsFan... *ding!*

$2650 for Numbers... *ding!*

$1198 for Plinkoman... *ding!*

and a 1-up from LiteBulb88... *ding!*

...and the Actual Retail Price is...




$1,720! LiteBulb, come on up!

Plinkoman's now at risk of joining the First Four Breakfast Club... but I don't think that he'll mind getting upped in this instance. Because LiteBulb, look what you can win behind Door 3!

A chance to win SIXTEEN THOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUSAND DOLLARS!

If you payed attention to the list in the first post, you'd have noticed that It's In The Bag isn't on there. That's because, I'm going to give you something else:

A token for either $4,000 or 24 hours, if you want a second chance in this game. So, in a sense you're playing for $20,000.










Okay, let's just rip off the Band-Aid. You're playing the original Time is Money.

I've got 5 items that need to be sorted on the podii to your right. If you can do that in 24 hours, I'll give you the $16,000 and the $4,000 from your token. Announcer, can you help him out by describing the items?

Sure thing! First, enjoy some quality time with your kid with this 24-page hardback book!

Next, it's a package of 200 lollipops.

After that, it's a 2-ounce packet of gummy bears.

Then, it's a 17-ounce box of cookies and cream-flavored cereal.

Finally, do you like ice cream? Then this My/Mo Ice Cream is for you! Enjoy premium ice cream wrapped in a sweet dough with this 6-count box of strawberry-flavored Mochi!

Alright, you've got 24 hours to place each item in either below $3, $3-$6, or above $6.

Ready? GO!

[LiteBulb88]

Hoo boy. I should've 1 upped someone else  . Anyway, here are my placements:

<$3: Gummy bears
$3-$5.99: Book, cereal
$6+: Lollipops, ice cream

[TPIRfan#9821]

Alright, for $20,000, is that right?



























*BUZZ!*

No, it isn't, unfortunately. Now, the bigger question now is how many does he have wrong?

Only 1 wrong! LiteBulb, if you want to give back the $4,000, you only need to change one of the items! Or, you could just forget about the $16,000 and sit back down, $4,000 richer. Your call.

I'd go with the Mochi balls... they're good but they're only a 6 count, and I have my doubts they're >$1 per.

[LiteBulb88]

Much as I want to go on, I'd need to be at least 25% sure of the change I'm making to make it worth it (since $16,000 is 4 * $4,000). And I can't say I'm 25% sure of what change I need to make, so I will stop with the $4,000.

*boos from crowd* 

I'm just kidding, it definitely feels like anything other than the gummi bears could be moved. For what it's worth, I would have moved the lollipops down.

[TPIRfan#9821]

Fair enough. Congratulations on netting $4,000!







Now, I'm hearing lollipops and mochi from the crowd. Which one was the wrong item?

Ah, it was the mochi. Here were the rest of the items, just to show that he only got one wrong:

So, we've had two people bail out, but across both of my shows, I'm still technically 0 for 7. There better be a winner on the next game, else I'm going to quit mid-show. 

[TPIRfan#9821]

Announcer, we've got time for one more game! Send us a person who you think is cool!

Well, I don't know about you, but I've heard that PatrickRox! Mr. 80, come on down! You're the next contestant onThe Price is Right!

Oh, yikes. $4,367. Numbers, congrats for making it on stage!

Numbers, you've made it! Follow me to the turntable. We're going to play a game that's a little... unique. It's a little different because you need to play against someone else to win your fabulous prize. I've got a couple stations set up. You'll take the left one.

Plinkoman didn't complain about this game, right?

No, but someone else did.

Who?

tpir04 did.

I am a cruel person who loves irony. Call him down as the final contestant.

Alright, you heard 9821! tpir04, come on down! You're the next contestant on The Price is Right!

04, you either make it on stage and play Double Bullseye, or don't play at all . Your call with this final prize:

It's a fancy lighter!

When you have a lighter, the whole world looks like a match! This elegent lighter comes with a brown sunburst lacquer, and has an engraved roller for a firmer grip! From S.T. Dupont!

We'll start with 04.
