Wow.. $2,200 for a chair? I didn't even pay that for my desk. :-P
In loving and eternal memory of a truly beautiful goddess.

999 | 1000 | 1001 | 699

Well this was certainly an interesting round.  The actual retail price is...

$1,365!  Rob is the winner.  Silly rabbit, $999 gumball machines are for kids.

Rob, I think it's high time I give out one o' these!

A NEW TRUCK! *cheers and excitement*

It's the Isuzu i-280 Extended Cab truck, for all your trucking needs.  Comes with standard features, it's the Isuzu i-280: a great vehicle worth $17,649!

Rob, the game is Let Em Roll.  You'll get one roll of our five oversized dice, and you can win two more by knowing a little bit about these items.  Chris?

*GP Cue*

Tide Detergent with Bleach Alternative features Color Safe Bleaching Action that whitens whites while helping to keep your colors bright.

Entenmanns Chocolate Fudge Cake, big enough to share with friends.  Good enough to keep to yourself, because seriously, anyone who doesn't like chocolate or cake is a Communist  8-)

And Crest Toothpaste Baking Soda & Peroxide Whitening with Tartar Protection.  Comes in a Fresh Minty flavor just in case your breath smells after eating that cake.


Let us see the price of the detergent, if you please.







It's $5.79.  Do you think the cake is higher in price or lower in price than the detergent.

It's neither.  I don't have the dimensions, but it's one to a box and weighs 18 ounces.

Even though I normally wouldn't condone this, I suggest getting out to your nearest supermarket which sells this (or similar) and look at it.

Heheh.  Is it lower?



*ding*

Yes!  And I speak from experience when I say those are gooooood cakes.  Now, is the toothpaste higher or lower than 3.99?

Yes!  Now, since the next part of this is pretty lame, let me spice things up a bit.  Pick 3 sides of a 6-sided die (1-6) and I will make them the car spaces.

All right.  The money amounts will increase along with the values of the other sides.  Now get up there and Let Em Roll!



*tumble tumble tumble*






*ding* *ding*

Okay, not bad.  Now, you can bank these two cars and roll the other three OR you can take $3,000 in cash to call this whole thing off.

Okay.  We'll give you these three back so you can Let Em Roll!

Well, things are getting interesting.  Would you like to stop with $1500 or take your final roll?
