Sorry for the delay, had to go to the DMV after price.

The 2 prizes that were lower in Punch A Bunch were both very tricky.  Who'd have thought a set of coasters like that would be that cheap?  Also since I remember seeing other pasta makers used on the show in the past it seemed like the one used on today's show would've been more expensive than it actually was.  In Stack The Deck the 1st and 2nd sets of grocery items were obvious meaning a person could easily get 2 free numbers but the 3rd was tricky as either item could've been the given price.  Fortunately Kizzy guessed right and it allowed her to win the car.

Stack the Deck was Well played.
Won a 2nd time this season
Drew made it a point it was the most difficult car game

[GameShowKid]

Nice $5,000 Punch-A-Bunch win!

Stack The Deck! One of my favorite games! I think the product pricing set up was rather easy, but I would have missed on the third pair. However, I was very sure it was a 27 thousand dollar car. Great win.

This was a very good episode! I know my commentary is late.

Alex's wipeout on Gridlock was definitely a shocker for me. I thought it was 26k. I wouldn't think the Subaru Impreza was $28k. I'm happy Alex redeemed himself with the Showcase win.

Stack The Deck! One of my favorite games! I think the product pricing set up was rather easy, but I would have missed on the third pair. However, I was very sure it was a 27 thousand dollar car. Great win.

Kizzy was my favorite pricing game winner today. I share your opinions about the setup. The Altima was at least $27k. No way was it any less. That fifth digit was tricky to me. I thought it was 5.

[SteveGavazzi]

I'd like to say that I'm not sure whether it was more exciting that Stack the Deck was won or that we finally got to see what's on the backs of the cards...but the backs of the cards turned out to be blank, so that's actually a pretty easy call.
