RICHARD: Tonight, someone in our audience may win a fortune in cash in prizes, if they know when the price is right!

BuddyTom, COME ON DOWN!

LucyRickyAlex, COME ON DOWN!

Punchboard91, COME ON DOWN!

And CampDaddy90, COME ON DOWN!

You are the first four contestants on this special primetime...



And here is your host for tonight...Joseph "Gatorman" Kristoff!

(*loud cheers and applause; Gatorman bows.*)


RAAR! Thank you, everyone, and welcome to our third primetime special on "Gatorman's Price Is Right." I know you are excited, and for good reason—bigger prizes to dole out, a chance at tens of thousands of dollars in cash and prizes...I'm excited because of the addition of a pricing game that's tough to win, but if you make the prize big, it'll be worth it! I can't wait any longer, so let's see the first item up for bids tonight!

And here it is, it's a lovely poster bed! (*Carole*)

FurnitureontheWeb.com's exquisite queen size poster bed in cherry offers classic style and charm to the décor. The bed features a rich cherry finish and decorative posts that lend to the appeal of this piece.


Now: we want the one of you four who bids nearest to the actual retail price of that bed will win it. CampDaddy90 starts off the bidding.

Bidding order: CampDaddy90, Punchboard91, LucyRickyAlex, BuddyTom

The actual retail price of that poster bed is...$3,371! Hey, it's primetime, guys! BuddyTom beat the others, and BuddyTom, I can't WAIT for you to come up here on stage and play a pricing game.

Tom, I've decided to bring back an old chestnut of a game. A very old one. Many have said it's way too hard, but will you say its difficulty is justified when you have a chance to win THIS?

RICHARD: A NEW LEXUS! (*Topaz*) (*crowd splodey*)

The 2007 Lexus ES350! Now you can be seen in something stylish everyday! Comes with a 3.5-litre V6 engine, traction control, anti-lock brakes, brake assist, airbags, foglamps, and other standard options and equipment, plus Premium Plus Package: Heated and ventilated front seats, leather-trimmed interior, driver's seat power cushion extender, Memory System, rain-sensing windshield wipers, DVD navigation system, rear airbags and more...a Lexus ES350! Gatorman?


BuddyTom, I give you SLIM CHANCE.



Or, "Bullseye I" renamed. You will give me a price on that Lexus, then I will say higher or lower, meaning the actual price of that Lexus is higher or lower than your guess. Then you will give me another guess.

Tom, if you can give me the price of the car in seven chances, you will be driving off in that luxurious automobile.

Before we begin, I will give you a little hint. The actual price of the Lexus is between $41,000 and $41,500. Start us off.

I don't know why, but something's telling me $41,499... just under the top number.

...now why did you go and waste a guess like that?

$41,499, and of COURSE it's lower.
