No tapings for MDS shows have been planned as far as we know.  When they are, I'm sure they'll be announced here first.
Roger Dobkowitz's Seven Commandments of The Price Is Right:
1. Tape and edit the show as if it were live.
2. Never tell the contestant what to do.
3. Size matters. (The bigger the prize, the better the prize and the bigger the reaction.)
4. All prizes are good.
5. Never do anything on the show that would embarrass a parent with a kid watching.
6. Never put on a prize that would make the show look cheap.
7. It’s the game, stupid! (It’s about the game.)

And you say that based on what?

Well, I don't know if Dave wants to toot his own horn, but he's the announcer at one of the stage shows, so I'd assume he's in a position to know what he's talking about here.

I just wrote to CBS a month ago and they said to me via e-mail that they won't be showing and MDS's this season, but there is talk of a 35th Anniversary Special either in late August or early September before the 35th season of TPIR begins.

They'd be stupid not to, considering this would be their 35th Season and price I believe turns 50 this year.

Can you clarify it CGJ?

There are no confirmed plans for a primetime special.  There is discussion.

I think they should do a primetime special.  They did it for the 25th season, so why not the 35th season.  Let's hope they do.

When I was in the audience about a month ago, someone actually asked this question and Bob mentioned that the next primetime special was being planned for Las Vegas, but he didn't say anything about when it would be.

They also did one during the middle of the 30th season in January 2002. (The Las Vegas Special at Harrah's Rio)

I would like to see a primetime special for the 35th season too.  If there is one, I just hope that they use the one hour format (like the 30th) and not the dreaded half hour format with clips (25th).

Yeah. If they do like the 25th primetime special I'll die.
