Most Expensive: This was not an easy setup, but Emily made it look easy! I would have never guessed that the dinette set was $2,500.
It's In the Bag: This was extremely easy for the first three bags, but then it became much more difficult. I also would have walked at the $4,000 level because the $8,000 bag was a 50/50 shot between the cat food and the mouthwash for me. I just wish Bernadine had gone on to give us our first 4-win show of the season.
Card Game: Even with just a $2,000 card, this was easy. This was played so well that Amanda would have won with the $1,000 card!
Secret X: Another easy setup here -- the Secret X being in the middle almost makes this a sure win.
Cover Up: This was next to impossible! While I was playing along with the show, I made the following picks:
First Try: $
24,719 (Purposely blowing the second number to guarantee a third try)
Second Try: $
21,321
Third Try: $
21,908
Fourth Try: $
21,952
Fifth Try: $
21,954 --
LOSSThat's right -- I would have still lost this despite getting
five chances at it! That fifth number was simply a shot in the dark. I think the paint and fabric protection option is only included to make car games impossible to win.
Barker's Bargain Bar: Another tough setup, and it would help if Marta knew her math.
Showcases: Nothing too spectacular here today, except that this is now the fourth straight show with either a
or a
. This time, though, I was on top of pricing them for a change, nailing a top-5 finish in CSS.
Overall, this has to be one of the best shows that we've seen all season, despite the impossible Cover Up setup! Drew was on top of it today, we had a decent number of wins, and a solid pricing game lineup to boot. This one gets a solid "A" in my book!
