tpiradam's Classic PiR THE END!!!!!!

[Mallory16]

I understand that.  I'm just saying that the "if needed" isn't really needed, since tpiradam can't decide what's needed or not.  As ridiculous as it feels for us hosts to ask if you want to spin again on a nickel or 95¢--and I can assure you it does--we still have to, just in case.

[styleguy]

Yes, for legality's sake.

[tpiradam]

Okay styleguy, your spin looks like it will land on...

90

Based on the last couple of posts, it is pretty obvious you dont want to spin again so it is BuddyTom's turn to spin. You have to beat $0.90

[BuddyTom]

14, and if needed, 8.

[tpiradam]

Now it looks like you could beat him; will it be enough?...

75

Now you have to spin again and you're looking for $0.25. will it get here...

45

Nope. Sorry BuddyTom. styleguy, you will be in our showcase against Garvin8r.

Garvin8r, you are the top winner, therefore you make choose to bid on the first showcase or pass it to styleguy and wait for the second one.

Here is the first showcase:

This is an all Canadian showcase

To show a patriotic side, how about this Canadian Flag.

And if you don't know much about Canada and want to learn more, how about a visit to Toronto!

You and a guest will fly round-trip from Buffalo, NY to Toronto where you will enjoy a 6-night stay at the Westin Harbour Castle, located along the Waterfront.

Now how about a souvenir to take home with you, like mabye a Canadian-only Car!!!














It is the 2006 Pontiac G5 Pursuit Coupe GT. Comes with practically every option including Power sunroof, Side Airbags and On-star.

And this showcase can be yours if the Price is Right. Garvin8r, do you wish to bid or pass to styleguy?

[Garvin8r]

I'll bid, and my bid is CDN$27,300. (US$24,200)

[tpiradam]

OK then; styleguy, this is your showcase:

Your showcase is a showcase that is fit for a family, begining with this new living room by Ashley Furniture.

And since families enjoy vacations together, how about a trip to Ireland. You and 3 others will travel from Buffalo, NY to Ireland where you will enjoy a 6-night stay at the Fitzpatrick Minratti (spelling?)

And to take your family almost any where...

A new minivan!!!



































The 2006 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT! Comes with practically every option including 3.8L Automatic Transmission, leather seating, Rear Entertainment System, Side Airbags, Rear A/C, Power liftgate and the Family Fun Package!

Congradulations Garvin8r and thanks to all of the participants and to those who signed up. I apologize that I was a little dissorganized at times and that my show wasn't as great as someone like JM's, Frank's or Gatorman's but I will try to do better for my next show.

[Garvin8r]

Well, check another item off my to-do list here.

Thanks, tpiradam.  That showcase reminds me, I'd love to take a trip back up there.  I've been to Toronto once, on a high school band trip after senior year.

[styleguy]

Good job Garvin.  Good show.
