Barker's Beauties: Janice, Dian, Holly

Here it comes! Television's most exciting hour of fantastic prizes! The fabulous, 60-minute Price Is Right!

FANTASTIC FUN!
SENSATIONAL PRIZES!
TERRIFIC GAMES!


First Four: Green, Orange, Red, Blue (Right-to-left before a switch)
Microphone Handoff: Janice



Before starting, Bob and Rod need to confirm that they have the right people (including the right host), and they do. Bob names some staff before starting the game. :oldlol:

1st IUFB - A new game table: Northstar convertible game table group for fun with family and friends, also allows dining in style, and can be used to play chess, backgammon, and bumper pool (Holly)

|DEBORAH|EARL|CLAIRE|VICKI|
|$1500|$1400|$1250|$100|

Actual Retail Price: $1,800!

Deborah is playing Bump for a lovely hand-painted screen and a new refrigerator/freezer (Holly):
1: Five-panel lily screen hand-painted with (?) foil, in an intelligent style to add elegance to any room
2: Whirlpool no-frost high-capacity French door refrigerator and 5.8 cubic foot bottom freezer with non-spill (?) interior, textured steel, and no-fingerprint doors.

Some frozen meat appears to have fallen out of the freezer after the door opened. Better than Holly's problems with the Gibson fridge. :P

Bob: It's fascinating to watch her write numbers, isn't it? I'm standing over here, and she thinks she's Picasso; she's going, you know, like this, and...pivot her hand, it goes away, and there's "910".
