I recently found a Klaxs machine at my local retro arcade, and it requires a lot more strategy than Tetris.

If there was only one playing of Check-Out to ever see, this would be the one. You know there's something interesting if the popular grocery cue goes as far along as its ever been, and also that the knock on a popular gum seen on commercials during kids' programming at the time would be a viral-worthy moment.

Also, SC1 was set up for a DSW.

The Salad Shooter is another little slice (haHA!) of nostalgia from this episode. I bet most of us here over 40 at least vaguely remember the jingle from the Salad Shooter ad; it was heavily advertised on daytime and afternoon TV in the late 80s and early 90s.

In spite of the DSW-friendly price at the end, I feel like they set up Money Game for the contestant to burn off a couple choice on the front half of the car. At least I didn't expect a Sentra with air conditioning to cost only a hair more than a Metro without it. Barker outright dismisses the possibility of it being a $6000-something car, but there were still rare cars under $7000 in the early 90s, reserved for games like Hole in One, Spelling Bee, or Squeeze Play.
