Judi will play a brand new pricing game called RANGE GAME for a Kelvinator Washer/Dryer.
In this game, the contestant is shown a scale representing a range of $600. The price of the prize is somewhere within this range. On this scale is a red window which spans $50 of the range; it is dubbed the "range finder".
Starting from the bottom, the range finder moves up the scale slowly. The contestant must press a button to stop the range finder when they believe the price of the prize is within the red window. If they are correct, they win the prize.

The range for the debut playing is from $200 to $800.
The Rangefinder starts up the range. Judi stops it at $396-446.
LIGHT UP THE PRICE! $668! LOSS
