Actual Retail Price: $900!

Bob just read the price right away and said that Garrett was right on the nose. He must be in a hurry to hand someone $500.

Garrett is playing Cliff Hangers for a new car: 2005 Pontiac Vibe, includes premium appearance package, a prize worth $17,800 (Starr).

A rather appropriate game, as Garrett is studying retailing!

Garrett can keep the Mountain Climber safe by pricing these small items (Shane):
1. Electric pancake maker that makes a pair of 6-inch pancakes at once and features a premium non-stick coating; also useful for cooking eggs and other snacks
2. Chrome-plated hand mixer featuring several different speeds and 3 different attachments to aid in the preparation of your favorite foods and treats
3. Unique looking humidifier featuring a permanent night light, 2-gallon output, and quiet fan to silently add moisture to your household

Garrett thinks the price of the pancake maker is $24.

*BUZZ* The Mountain Climber goes up the mountain...and stops at 2. The price is...

$26

Garrett thinks the price of the mixer is $10.

*BUZZ* The Mountain Climber goes up the mountain...and *CRASH!* I guess he had to learn retail the hard way.

$36

(The humidifier price is not shown.)

Garrett will return for the Showcase Showdown after the break.


Just to rub it in, Bob points out that the audience wants to know where Garrett shops, and they all want to go there.

1st Showcase Showdown:

|	CONTESTANT	|	SPIN 1	|	SPIN 2	|	TOTAL	|	RESULT	|

|	Dionthe	|	.75	|	––	|	.75	|		|
|	Keesha	|	.50	|	.35	|	.85	|	SHOWCASE	|

...and then Garrett tries to spin the Wheel from the wrong side. "This kid needs all the help he can get, you know that?"

After Garrett is beaten, he covers his forehead and walks off. "He's had a terrible Price is Right experience."


The next calldown, Richard, is part of a group that belongs to the National Association for the Education of our Young People.
