ohi there! I'm here for another one of those new-fangled HYOs! However, since we loved doing a lot of throwbacks, I decided I would do one to the good old days of Season 48! This means I'll follow the format of the show with six pricing games, two SCSDs, and a Showcase, and it will be totally normal and not devolve into chaos at all!
Here are the rules if you're want in:
- I'll PM you when you get called on down, when you make it on stage, and if you make it to the Showcase.
- Deadlines are 24 hours, but you don't officially get penalized until after I say so. So, if you miss a deadline but preform the action before I call you for it, you are fine.
- Missing your chance on Contestants' Row will be an automatic pass on your first offense and an ejection on your second.
- Missing your chance at the start of a pricing game will result in you being swapped with the next-closest player during that IUFB, and you will have to earn your way back onto the stage. Missing a deadline after you've given an action will result in an automatic loss.
- Missing on spin on the Showcase Showdown will get you a strike if you haven't gotten one before, and an ejection if you have or do it again!
- If you forget to bid on the Showcase, you will be replaced with the second place person from your Showcase Showdown.
- Audience, don't help during the IUFBs, but feel free to chime in anytime else!
- Have fun, and feel free to ask any questions, before or during the game!
Since this is Season 48, for your audition prompt, I want you to write a fake taping report to the show on 10/2/2019 (http://www.golden-road.net/index.php/topic,30514.0.html). Be as punctual or broad, serious or funny, but be creative, and I'll choose some of my favorites to come on down! I randomly chose a date, and haven't reread the recap, so I want you to give me a refresher in the most entertaining way possible! (if you want to pass, that's fine, this prompt is rather long tbh)
I'll start the show quickly, on 1/6/2021, a bit after noon EST. Good Luck, and happy new year!

I'm in!
Ever wanted to go on an easy Shopping Spree? This contestant did... and won! How about a game of Yahtzee for a new car!!!! No Yahtzee on this game of Let 'em Roll, though! Ok, how about getting that J. Geils Band song stuck in your head- just take a Freeze Frame; but our contestant didn't quite freeze the right frame. Remember that awesome Shopping Spree? Well, there's a sale going on, and some items are 2 for the Price of 1 (but not for our contestant)! We're all stuck in a Rat Race, but this contestant got out and found their way to a brand new car!! Finally, ever wanted to be cool like Plinkoman? All you have to do is prove to the world you are not a Push Over, and the final contestant did just that! And, I know all TPIR fans are cool, but are you $684 away from your showcase cool? The Showcase winner was! Help control the pet population; have your pets spayed or neutered!
-
I'm in!
Six pricing games were played on the October 2, 2019 show, two of them for cars. I believe there were two Showcase Showdowns, as well as two Showcases presented.
-
Count me in. I would like to pass on the prompt.
-
I'm interested in playing...
MOD NOTE: Ineligible. Please read the Rules of the section to learn how to be eligible to play. Thanks :)
-
I'll sign up...
Boy I tell ya I sure was tired after attending the morning taping so by this point my excitement level was about a 3. I almost went into full old person mode with all the hootin and hollerin from the potential contestants. When we FINALLY got into the studio after a few rogue bathroom trippers they showed me to my seat, I settled in and took a nice nap...until those magic words HEEEEEEEERE IT COMES! came through and I sprung up like a toaster with as much enthusiasm as the last show. THEN I took a nap 3min later and when I woke up in the studio and it was the next days taping...
-
I'm in, so I'll be rhymin'!
Robin starts the show off with a Shopping Spree win, choosing all other prizes but the foosball table may cause a winning streak to begin.
And a sight of hope is seen with Cole, dumping some blocks playing Let 'Em Roll, to win the car it takes some luck, sadly the last roll gave her 1500 bucks.
Bit bored after that loss? Let's continue the fun, and quit saying blah. It's now Freeze Frame with contestant Farihah. It's great to get a trip to New Orleans that's marked a price ending in the tens!
2 For 1's not a hard game especially for Kenneth hoping to win a hot tub with Melissa and James. Picking the middle number's a great idea, but still it's a lose-a...
It's everyone's fave, the game of rats, where Lauren gets a chance at. Orange, pink, and blue, all lanes she chose, 1-2-3-Rat Race, it's a car for you!
A vacation to Japan might just PUSH Phillip OVER the edge. Put 9-1-7-8 right in the window, it would produce a fun win, right on the show's last stretch.
Showcase time, it's OVER for Farirah, but Lauren's just fine. Winnin' over $54K kept the crowd in cheers, and as usual, ol' legendary spay-neuter plug would never be unpleasing to the ears.
-
Yeah, I think the prompt was a bit too hard. I'll extend the deadline to Thursday night, and just say that you want in if you want in. Forget about the prompt, although for those of you who did it, expect to be rewarded.
-
I'd sign up, but obviously since I have the script, I cannot. 9821's shows are pretty good guys... always some fun surprises in store and this one is no different, so sign up for it!
-
I so wish I could join, but I'm starting a new job next week and can't be sure I'll be able to check this site on a regular basis :(. But good luck--I've always enjoyed your shows!
-
Wow, the site is back up, its a miracle :-). I'd love to join, if still allowed.
Regarding your prompt, let me see what I can recall from my October 2, 2019 taping, with absolutely no hindsight whatsoever...
My oh my, what a day we had today. Our clean shaven host coming out pumping up the crowd, the hooting and hollering from all directions. The first IUFB came out, and I then I kinda blacked out from the sheer excitement. Just being there was a miracle, we were somehow able to push our trip out to LA up a year and it was worth every second. Gameplay was mixed, we had a shopping spree go right, a dice roll go wrong, a nailbiting rat race, all while everything else was anything but a pushover (including Pushover :lol:). Hopefully we can make it out next year and do it all over the exact same way. :-)
-
I'm going to start the show right now, but allow late joiners if they want. If there is no one else new to get called down, I guess the Row will have fewer than 4 players.
Here it comes! From the Bob Barker Studio at CBS in Hollywood, it's The Price is Right!
123^3, come on down!
Plinkoman, come on down!
tpiradam, come on down!
and JhayPrice, come on down!
You are the first four contestants as we pay tribute to Season 48 on The Price is Right!
And now, here's your host... Mr. 9821!
*I walk out*
Welcome one, welcome all to the first HYO of 2021! Mr. Announcer, can we have the first item up for bids?
How about this new iPhone?
(https://i.imgur.com/Jf5mhLy.png)
Call, text, or Zoom your friends and family with this iPhone 12 Pro Max. This large phone has a 6.7 inch screen, 512GB of memory, and facial recognition!
(https://i.imgur.com/cWEGku9.png)
Numbers, we'll start with you. Bid as close as you can without going over.
-
Sweet, glad to be here. I promise I won't black out during this taping :-)
$789, please
-
I know I am late. Can I join in? I will pass doing the question.
-
^You'll be called down after everyone else who signed up in time, but yes.
$789 for Numbers... *ding!*
Plinkoman, your turn.
-
$1,000!
-
Assuming there's no phone plan and it's just for the phone I'll say $1,199
-
Glad to be called down 9821! Um, twelve hundred!
-
A grand flat for Plinkoman... *ding!*
Yes, there's no phone plan, tpiradam, so $1,199 from you *ding!*
And the 1-up from JhayPrice! *ding!*
The actual retail price is:
$1,399! JhayPrice, come on up here!
(https://i.imgur.com/hMlKr0X.gif)
Jhay, congrats on making it on stage! I've got something for you behind that door!
It's a pair of electronic bikes!
(https://i.imgur.com/eHo7LQU.png)
These step-thru bikes feature a five-hundred watt motor to let you travel anywhere with your city. With a top speed of twenty-five miles per hour and a range of up to 40 miles, you'll be sure to reach your destination. Two helmets are included!
Thank you, Mr. Announcer. Now Jhay, if you want to win this prize, you'll have to complete the Squeeze Play.
(https://i.imgur.com/QqN105y.png)
Now, those are some nice bikes, but they aren't $65,000 material. I can tell you that the price starts with a six, and ends with an eight. You'll have to remove the 5, the 2, or the 7 to get the correct price. Do it, and the bikes are yours.
So, which digit are you removing?
-
Oh, let's go and squeeze out the 5!
-
The 5, he says! Say hi to the guy behind the podium squeezing the numbers together... *squeeze sfx*
(https://i.imgur.com/S7lf2gW.png)
And now, let's hope he's a winner... 1... 2... 5!
(https://i.imgur.com/50y44FC.png)
BUZZ! *Losing Horns*
Aw, the bikes were actually cheap. Well, you've still got the newest iPhone, and you'll have the chance to redeem yourself at the wheel. But for now, Mr. Announcer, can we have another contestant?
Sure thing! JayC, come on down! You're the next contestant on The Price is Right!
Welcome, JayC! Congrats on making it down to the Row! But Mr. Announcer, do you know what time it is?
It's time to get a new watch!
(https://i.imgur.com/zIoESo8.jpg)
Display your personality with this digital watch, with a ceramic bezel, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, and touchscreen! From TAG Heuer! We've thrown in a replacement leather strap!
(https://i.imgur.com/ecehgM0.png)
JayC, we'll start with you.
-
For 3100 bucks each that must've been a bargain! Hoping for wins after that one...
-
Let's go with $729 please 9821!
-
$729 says JayC... *ding!*
What say you, 123^3?
-
$1,123 please
-
$899
-
$1,125
-
$1,123 for 123123123... *ding!*
$899 for Plinkoman... *ding!*
and a 2-up from adam! *ding!*
Now, before I continue, I made a mistake in the previous game. JhayPrice clearly said to remove the 5 in that price... and I went ahead and removed the 2. He was supposed to win that game, and that's my bad. He'll be receiving his bikes.
Error aside, the actual retail price is... $1,780! tpiradam, come on up!
(https://i.imgur.com/dIzfNn5.gif)
Adam, you're going to be really happy you came up here right now, because look what you're playing for!
A brand new CAR!
(https://i.imgur.com/eKcllEh.png)
It's the 2021 White Diamond Mitsubishi Mirage Carbonite Edition! Comes equipped with a 1.2L engine, continuously variable transmission, and front wheel drive, plus popular value package, welcome package, armrest console, hood protector, LED fog light kit, Rockford Fosgate premium audio, Tonnneau cover, remote engine start, fog lights, and all weather floor mats are all included!
Now, the name of the game is Temptation! I'm going to show you the first digit in the price of the car:
(https://i.imgur.com/906ByPK.png)
*ding!*
It's a 2. Now, I heard it's your birthday today! Happy birthday! I've got a few gifts for you, completely risk-free. You don't need to know the price of them or anything. And the first prize is something we all want... a check!
(https://i.imgur.com/9gq1wSX.png)
Well, pardon my ugly handwriting, but as you can see on the check, the $1,313 is a clue to the second digit of the car. The second digit is either a 1 or a 3. What do you think it is?
-
I had no idea it was possible to find a Mirage with a 2 as the starting price...at least outside of Canada that is. Lets go with 1 please.
-
Let's throw the 1 up there... *ding!*
(https://i.imgur.com/pMJLACV.png)
Next up... well, a terrible birthday present for you, but maybe for a special woman in your life?
It's a collection of items from Kate Spade. Comes with a handbag, a pair of pumps, sunglasses, a travel wallet, and cardholder!
(https://i.imgur.com/xSQKPJ0.png)
$884 is the price tag, and I must ask you if you think the third digit in the car is a 4 or an 8.
-
Uhhhhh...4?
-
4 he says, with a doubt in his voice. *ding*
(https://i.imgur.com/pVsKsQe.png)
Next up is... a "gaming" laptop?
It sure is. Take your game to the next level with this 15.6" computer! Comes with 500GB of storage, 8GB of RAM, and a red backlit keyboard!
Yeah, what game are you supposed to run on a computer with 8 gigs of RAM? Minesweeper?
(https://i.imgur.com/6GsZ3IJ.png)
It's $779. 7 or 9?
-
7 please.
-
7 then... *ding!*
(https://i.imgur.com/Wo2Liv3.png)
...and we end with... this doohickey
In celebration of Mario's 35th anniversary, this Game & Watch system tells time and comes with Super Mario Bros., SUper Mario Bros 2., and a remake of Ball!
(https://i.imgur.com/3uI2TOc.png)
$50. Is the last number a 5 or a 0?
-
Ah the old 5 or 0. Let's do 0. While we're at it I'll keep the numbers the way they are and I'm going for the car it's all or nothing!
-
0... *ding!*
And he's sure he's going for it! Forget about the $3,026 of birthday presents guaranteed, he wants that car!
Obviously, the 2 is right. *ding!*
(https://i.imgur.com/pyO2Ahv.png)
Now, did we find a $23,000 Mirage?
(https://i.imgur.com/tfLMtxR.png)
*ding!* No we didn't! But the rest are tossups. Is the next number a 4?
(https://i.imgur.com/zkZBdLs.png)
*ding-ding!* It is! Well, is the next number a 7?
(https://i.imgur.com/1YQRhQ3.png)
*ding-ding-ding-ding!* Yes it is! You're one number away from winning the car!
Show!
us!
that!
ZERO!
(https://i.imgur.com/ktXR8it.png)
BUZZ! *losing horns!* Aw, you lost on the old 5 or 0. But hey, at least you've got a nice watch, and you're going to spin the wheel! More Price is Right after this!
*fade to commercials*
*fade to show!*
Mr. Announcer, we need another contestant right now! Someone smart enough to win big!
Well, you could say that this contestant is a... geniusinmath! Come on down! You're the next contestant on The Price is Right!
Welcome to the show! Mr. Announcer, do we have another prize?
Of course. Coming around on the turntable... is a new turntable!
(https://i.imgur.com/kzmP5Pt.png)
Enjoy music on this white turntable! We've thrown in a mini preamp and the necessary cables, and four different LP record albums of... varying quality!
Thank you! Genius, you're up first!
(https://i.imgur.com/UAmZnzS.png)
-
$950.
-
$555 please 9821.
-
I'm not sure about the "varying quality" of the others, but that Sonic Mania soundtrack is straight fire :-)
$679 please
-
$681
-
$950 from genius... *ding!*
$555 from JayC... *ding!*
Thank you for defending my choice of that record numbers, $679 for you... *ding!*
...and $681 from Plinkoman! *ding!*
We're being really nice with the 2-ups, are we? Well, the actual retail price is... $813! Plinkoman, congrats on making it on stage!
(https://i.imgur.com/IAKJ6il.gif)
And look, I'm sorry that I was acting like I hated you for saying Time is Money was the worst game on the show last time. I've got a very practical gift for you!
It's toothpaste for ELEVEN LIFETIMES!
(https://i.imgur.com/RB5OKYh.png)
On the show this episode was based on, Fixodent threw in a $500 gift card. However, we asked them for ALL the toothpaste they had, so if you win this prize, prepare to stuff the trunk of your car with fluoride containers! It's a prize we arbitrarily decided is worth... $6,348!
:-D You're going to be playing Now or Then.
(https://i.imgur.com/cNQEQAv.png)
Mr. Announcer! Can you explain these six items?
Sure thing!
First, it's a 16 ounce bag of sourdough pretzel sticks.
Next, that is a 2.85 ounce bag of turkey jerky.
Then, we have an 11 oz. bag of coffee.
A 16 oz. tub of peanut butter.
After that, a 5 ounce package of grape-flavored licorice,
then finally, a 3-pack of Fixodent toothpaste, here to clean out your teeth like a pro!
Thank you! Now, Plinkoman, some of those products are the price from today, while others date back to the old days of January 2010. I'm going to ask you to pick an item and tell me if the price is from NOW, January 2021, or THEN, January 2010. If you can correctly identify three continuous wedges, all the toothpaste you've ever wanted is yours. Tell me where you want to start and if you think it's NOW or THEN.
(If you want, you can do multiple items at the same time.)
-
I'll start with the Fixodent- and I'll say NOW.
-
Now, he says... and it is a
(https://i.imgur.com/UPJEQLt.png)
*ding-ding-ding!*
It is indeed! Now, where next?

Red Vines- THEN
-
The grape-flavored Red Vines are a...
(https://i.imgur.com/zTV42e8.png)
YES IT IS! Now, all we need is for you to date that peanut butter or bag of pretzel sticks correctly, and then the toothpaste is as good as yours!
(https://i.imgur.com/I5wwdKD.gif)
-
Pretzel Sticks- NOW
-
Now, he says, and it is...
(https://i.imgur.com/UPJEQLt.png)
*ding-ding-ding-ding-ding* x infinity!
Congrats! You've won the toothpaste for forever! Enjoy it! Showcase Showdown coming up next!
(yeah it's not creative or 2020ish, ah well)
*comes back from commercial*
Welcome back! It's time to spin the wheel and win maybe $26,000. I want you to give me two spin numbers (frankly, as long as it's a positive integer, I don't care) and at what amount you would stop at, and the wheel has to go around at least once. You want to get as close as you can without going over, and whoever can do that moves on to the Showcase at the end of the show. If you get a dollar with your first spin or the combination of both your spins, you'll win $1,000 and the chance at more money!
tpiradam, you're spinning first, since you're the only loser today. Good luck!
Spinning order:
tpiradam ($1,780)
Plinkoman ($7,161)
JhayPrice ($7,677)
-
No offense, but before the spins, must my total be only $1,399 as I've only won the phone, and lost the bikes at Squeeze Play? Just wondered why I wound up winning over 7 grand. Thanks bud'!
-
Another error, my browser haven't loaded all the pages correctly, so I haven't noticed 9821's disclaimer of my tech win. To the mods and 9821, my sincere apologies, hope this wouldn't lead to some more confusion.
-
11 and 11. I'll stop on 70 or higher and if need be my bonus spin will be 11 as well please.
-
Alright, that's a nice spin... but you're going to be a little short of that dollar to start out.
10
I'm assuming you're spinning again, judging that you're already in motion? Well, the wheel's spinning and spinning... and you might get that 75?
55
Just overshot. 65 cents is a very winnable score! *ding*
Plinkoman, you're up! Beat that 65!
-
12 & 11, I will stop if I tie or beat Adam.
-
We have a strong spin from Plinkoman... and this is looking pretty good. Stop! Stop!
100
You did it!
$1,000
:dig:*ding*x37
JhayPrice, you can't beat him, but you can tie him.
-
98 and 21! C'mon dollar!
-
aw thanks for kissing up to the host.
...and on your first spin, you're going to get close... but no cigar.
90
One more spin... and stop for the 10... nope, too far.
5
Aw, 95 would have been a winning score any other day, but not today. Take care with those bikes!
Plinkoman, it's time for your bonus spin. JhayPrice conveniently reset the wheel on the 5. If you spin the wheel around once, and land on the 5 or the 15, you'll get yourself $10,000. However, hit that dollar again, and $25,000 is as good as yours. Take your bonus spin!
-
18
-
Here it comes... yeah nope, it's a little bit too much.
20
You've still got $1,000 and are still heading to the showcase! More coming on... after this!
-
Mr. Announcer, we need another contestant!
Sure thing! How about pathfinder20! Come on down! You're the next contestant on The Price is Right!
Welcome! Good luck with this next prize!
It's a margarita machine!

$500! geniusinmath, get up here!
(https://i.imgur.com/BEWFti1.gif)
Congrats on winning the margarita machine and this stack of 5 $100 bills! You can also win... these!
...a television entertainment package...
(https://i.imgur.com/vy753Oj.png)
...and a drum and guitar set!
(https://i.imgur.com/PEfhFMb.png)
First, this 55" 4K UHD OLED TV is a master at bringing the most vibrant color to your world. Three bean bag chairs, a Roku Stick+, a year of Disney+, Netflix Basic, Hulu Basic, and a pair of heydayTM ivory white wired earbuds are included!
...and second, jam out with your friends on this deluxe 5-piece drum set! Beat to the rhythm to your hearts content, and rock out with this acoustic guitar with 22 frets!
(https://i.imgur.com/qtg9l1s.png)
If you want to win these prizes... which happen to be the types of items I lost to in the IUFBs last year, thank you so much for reminding me about that, prize selector, you're going to have to double cross me. The TV and chairs might be $4,329 and the instruments $9,981. Or the entertainment package might be $3,299 while the instruments are $998. Or the entertainment package is $2,995 and the instruments are $3,099. Or the TV is nearly 10 grand and the instruments are $2,309. If you can tell me which pair is right, you win both prizes AND since this is a tribute to Season 48, I'll throw in a $9,000 cash bonus.
So, slide to the correct position!
-
$2,995 for the entertainment package.
$998 for the Instruments.
-
...Not a possible option.
Perhaps I need to explain how the game works more clearly.
(https://i.imgur.com/RQJ0uva.png)
This is the starting position. As I move one slider, the other slider moves as well.
(https://i.imgur.com/yU8oUE9.png)
So you see, the sliders now read $3,299 and $0,998. If I were to move it another notch down,
(https://i.imgur.com/xTPkthv.png)
you would have $2,995 and $3,099, and if I were to go one more...
(https://i.imgur.com/Azvdwns.png)
Those two would be the price. These are the only four options. I want you to pick out of these four options.
-
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
$3,299 for the entertainment package
$0,998 for the drums.
-
Okay, is that combination right?
(https://i.imgur.com/Udi2HXV.png)
It is! Enjoy those prizes! And for the rest of you, stay tuned for the second half of The Price is Right!
...Since we don't have another contestant to call on down, Mr. Announcer, can you just say the next item up for bids?
It's a new cutlery set!
(https://i.imgur.com/xjAyC9h.jpg)
Never worry about running out of forks or knives again with this 113-piece cutlery set! This package has enough for a family meal of up to 12 people! Plus, have something to serve with an award from Eggland's Best! Eggland's Best gives your family more vitamins and minerals than ordinary eggs for stronger immunity and a healthier diet. Eggland's Best: better taste, better nutrition, better eggs!
JayC will bid first.

(https://i.imgur.com/oYHzbdV.gif)
...and much to my PTSD, I'm told that we've got a special set of prizes for you, right Mr. Announcer?
We do... have three brand new cars!
(https://i.imgur.com/ix6p6zc.png)
First, it's the 2021 Caribbean Blue Chevy Spark 2LT! Comes equipped with a 1.4 liter engine, continuously variable transmission, front wheel drive, and keyless start! Power sunroof, interior lighting, and eyelet battery charger are also included!
(https://i.imgur.com/cwhpNFY.png)
Next, it's the 2021 Platinum White Pearl Honda HR-V 2WD LX. Comes equipped with a 1.8 liter engine, continuously variable transmission, and wheels. Wheel locks, hard cargo cover, cargo organizer, and first aid kit are all included!
(https://i.imgur.com/dci31NN.png)
Finally, it's the Kia Rio LX. That's it. It's just a base Rio LX. Back to you, 9821!
Thank you! Now, you're going to be playing a game called 5 Price Tags. There are indeed only five price tags for all three cars combined, but only one of them is correct. Here they are.

But to pick between those price tags, you'll need to know the price of some everyday objects. There are no free picks in this game; you have to win all off them. Mr. Announcer, tell us about the first item please!
Can do. Keep your garments steamed with this pro handheld garment steamer!
(https://i.imgur.com/Xi6IOXK.png)
...and the price for that might be...
$720
...excuse me, what?
Well, it might be $720... or it might not be. If you can tell me if this is true or false and are right, you'll get a pick on the board.
-
Woah, you weren't kidding when you said this would be fun!
Looks like a nice garment steamer but not $720 nice. I'll say false.
-
Please be false, else I'm really concerned...
FALSE
$50
...okay good. You've won a pick, but let's try to make it two, with this timer.
(https://i.imgur.com/NX4oud7.png)
This timer with an LED display and ABS plastic casing has approximately a 3-inch diagonal and can count down for activities less than 100 minutes!
Now, the price on this device is...
$242
...This is going to be a dumb SP setup, isn't this? Well, $242. True or false?
-
That screams false to me.
-
Can't be that expensive... gotta go False again.
-
Yeah, this should be false, right?
TRUE
$242
WHAT? WHAT?!
I mean, you can still win two more picks, but like... what?
Okay, let's move to item #3, and hopefully it's not this dumb.
Bring some modern technology to your home with this waterproof Bluetooth cooking thermometer that hooks up to its own app!
[attachimg=1]
$350
$350. True or false?
[/quote]
-
Wow. I can't imagine anyone dropping anywhere near that for a kitchen timer.
Thinking $350 may be true now... going True.
-
True, he says. And it is...
TRUE
$350
I guess that makes sense since it's Bluetooth or something. Anyways, final item.
Prepare meals using this beautiful 6.5-inch sterling silver bowl!
(https://i.imgur.com/uLJnq3d.png)
$1,500
I mean... one and a half grand. True or false?
-
Going to stick with the trend-- True.
-
Could it actually be?
TRUE
$1,500
Well, I give up. Anyways, you have three chances to win all three cars!
(https://i.imgur.com/y6BjRTm.png)
If you can choose the right price tag to the thousandth place, you've got yourself over $55,000 worth of automobile. What is your first choice?
-
$58,000 please 9821!
-
$58,000... and it's a...
(https://i.imgur.com/TJxeC9Z.png)
Don't worry. You've still got two more tries.
-
Let's try $57,000.
-
$57,000...
(https://i.imgur.com/Ouyf7Ad.png)
Well, bases loaded, two strikes. It's either $59,000, $60,000, or $61,000.
-
$59,000 9821!
-
$59,000... show
me
a
winner!

*BUZZ!* *losing horns*
Aw, JayC, after all of that... the three cars combined were worth $60,000 combined. But hey, you've got some cutlery and a $1,500 bowl, and you'll be spinning in the Showcase Showdown soon!
But... we have time for one more game. Mr. Announcer, tell us the last item up for bids!
It's a pair of cameras!
(https://i.imgur.com/0LFVZyX.png)
Take the perfect shot with these Fujifilm cameras with 16-80mm Lens. 2 64 gigabyte SD cards are included!
(https://i.imgur.com/JumUcQw.png)
Well, Numbers, we start with you. You have one chance to exacta that before Pathy becomes evil and just ups you. Shoot for the moon, kid.
-
I'd like to pass this showcase to pathfinder20, please. I can do that, right?
Ugh, let's go with $1,198 and hope for the best
-
I am going to say $1.
-
$1,198 for 123^3... *ding!*
...and $1 for pathy... *ding!*
The actual retail price is...
Oh yikes. $4,594. Well, numbers, it wasn't pretty, but come on up!
(https://i.imgur.com/yHmT6Bu.gif)
...and we have something for you!
...how about this BIG WALL CLOCK!
(https://i.imgur.com/M7E0jvd.jpg)
From Qlocktwo, this clock measures 1.8 meters long and 1.8 meters tall, so you will be able to see the time from anywhere inside of your house!
You're going to play Coming or Going.
I'd love to join, but please, whatever you do, don't make me play Now or Then.
There are just so many reasons. First off, I don't want to be anywhere near that eyesore. You've updated the set? There are still problems
I want a bit of a challenge to show off of my pricing prowess, or eat some humble pie when I royally mess up. I don't want to play a game where I can basically guarantee a win using the proper strategy.
The game's a borefest compared to some of the superior games out there. I'm not gonna be picky on the real show, but you better bet your bottom dollar I'll be picky in this hypothetical. You wanna add fireworks after each correct pick for some pizzazz? Still not enough.
That's my one wish, 9821. Don't force Now or Then on me. That is all.
If you thought Now or Then was the worst game for some reason, then this is much worse.
(https://i.imgur.com/yUfSSaC.png)
Now, either you can go Coming for a price of $39,999...
(https://i.imgur.com/5K7b6Vj.png)
...or Going with a price of $99,993.
(https://i.imgur.com/5kMUAJ5.png)
Coming or going, 123123123?
-
I swear every show of yours has this brand of clock, and every time it has some asinine price tag. :-)
I can hear the tiny crowd behind me screaming, but I'm going with...going.
-
$99,993 is what he says... and the crowd is booing you. Well, the ARP is...
(https://i.imgur.com/rBeTsiN.png)
*BUZZ* *losing horns*
Aw well. I guess we'll see we'll see you soon in the showcase showdown.
-
And Showcase Showdown time! You know how it works, give me any integer, Plinkoman, we'll start with you.
Spinning Order:
Plinkoman ($3,418)
123123123 ($4,594)
geniusinmath ($14,297)
-
Yeah, poor choice on my part. My numbers will be 123 and 31.
I'll stop or stay tied with Plinkoman on 70+
-
I didn't know I was competing in TWO Showcase Showdowns! So, if I win do I face myself in the Showcases?
-
LOL, get back to the Showcase podii Plinkoman. I meant JayC.
-
I pick 12 and 21 for my 2 normal numbers and my bonus spin number if I make it that far is 26. I will stop at 70.
-
9 and 27 for my first two spins, 33 for the spin off/bonus spin. Stop at 70 or above.
-
So JayC's giving that wheel a whirl... and he's going to start out with a...
10
...I'm assuming you're spinning again? Okay, yeah. He is, and it's going to stop on...
40
Not bad, but not great either. Next up is 123123123... he spins it several times around, and lands on...
40
the 40 again. You're going to have to spin again. And this time, it's landing on... are you kidding me?
10
...well, it looks like we have a tie right now. Let's see if genius can break the tie here. He spins it, and round and round it goes, where it stops, nobody knows... and it's really going to be another low value again, fine.
25
Well, 25 to tie, anything above that and below 75 gets you to the showcases... I said below 75... no...
95
MRRRRRP
Aw, that spin would have been great the first time around. So sorry about that.
But JayC and 123123123, come back over here. You each get one spin each, higher number goes onto the showcase, please don't tie this. JayC spins the wheel, and it's going to stop at...
75
...a good spin! 123123123, it's up to you to beat a 75. Good luck! (I need another number from you)
-
If I have to beat a 75, guess I'll have to go with 76
-
and 123123123's got a huge spin... and it's going to be close... he might hit that dollar!
5
...aw. So close. Well, enjoy the cameras! However, JayC is going to have some chance at redemption and maybe win a car, right after this!

The Showcase Podii got left out in the rain, so I had to be resourceful and reuse the other thingy. However, congrats on making it to the showcases you two! I also stole two randomly-selected showcase themes from last season. Good luck!
Plinkoman and JayC, we want you to know that spring weather is almost here! So, what better way to enjoy the fresh air and the scenery... with this golf package!
(https://i.imgur.com/rlDfMrW.png)
(https://i.imgur.com/8t7vqKb.png)(https://i.imgur.com/etxMwQS.png)
This golf cart has a max load of 800 pounds and has a 4.4 horsepower engine! And take your golf cart on the green with a pair of his and her golf clubs! One 12-pack of balls is included!
Then, when you've mastered your golf skills at home, be sure to take your golf clubs with you... on your trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming!
(https://i.imgur.com/RcbZO3i.png)
You and a guest will fly roundtrip coach from Los Angeles to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, for a seven night stay in a suite at The Lexington at Jackson Hole, where you'll enjoy contemporary western service and comfort at this serene getaway! Daily breakfast plus two 18-hole games with a golf cart rental are included!
Finally, make your love of golf known worldwide... with a trip to Ireland!
(https://i.imgur.com/uZ4tcPc.png)
You and a guest will fly roundtrip coach from Los Angeles to Kerry, Ireland, where you'll be given a rental car to drive to your seven nights in a three-bedroom home through Stay YNA. Take in the gorgeous sights, and enjoy two rounds of golf at the Ceann Sibeal Golf Club!
So, it's a golf cart and clubs, a trip to Wyoming, and a trip to Ireland! And you'll get into the swing of things, but only if The Price is Right!
Plinkoman, you won more than JayC. Would you like to bid on this showcase or pass it?
-
I think I'm going to bid on this one.
$36,539
-
*ding!*
(https://i.imgur.com/icfMjbO.png)
JayC, I hope you like this showcase, because it's all we've got left!
We stole this showcase from a week that involved mashing things up, and since we don't have the legal right to mention the show that involves deals, your showcase is a generic two-prizer! And what is a generic two-prizer without a trip... to a generic place!
(https://i.imgur.com/GylJ3PL.png)
You and a guest will fly roundtrip coach from Los Angeles to Podgorica Airport, for a six night stay in the Aman Sveti Stefan. Enjoy the lovely sights at some generic location that isn't America!
Finally, no generic two-prizer isn't complete without some generic motorized vehicle!
(https://i.imgur.com/sxwh13f.png)
It's the 2021 Mitsubishi Mirage Outlander ES! This generic vehicle comes with generic features like continuously variable transmission, and a generic list of features that might or might be dealership exclusive: Auto Climate Control, Fog Lights, Security System, Rain Sensing Wipers, Steering Wheel Controlls, and Traction Control!
And this showcase, which ended generically, can be yours, but only if, generically, The Price is Right!
JayC, what say you?
-
I'll respond to the generic Showcase with a just as generic bid-- $30,000.
-
Am I seeing this right? It's a rather generic suspenseful reveal if we've really gone silent.
-
...That's really weird. I remember posting it on January 25th, but I know my internet was being wonky. Give me a couple minutes to retype everything. Sorry about that!
-
*fade from black*
JayC, you had a very generic two-prizer, with a trip and a car. You bid $30,000.
ARP: $31,587. For a difference of $1,587!
(https://i.imgur.com/kXdPHOQ.png)
I did that in my head. Plinkoman, you've got to be closer. You had the lovely golf showcase. You bid $36,589. Actual retail price...
$27,292. You're over by a lot. JayC, you've won!
(https://i.imgur.com/I7x61Qx.png)
He's got himself $35,005 worth of prizes today! Not a bad haul!
(https://i.imgur.com/DtGcOwz.gif)
Until next time, I'm 9821, telling you to keep your pets spayed and neutered to help control the pet population, and stay safe out there. Bye!
-
Well for me at least the reveal was worth the wait! I thought about bidding $33,333, so thank goodness I didn't and went with a generic number to match the generic Showcase!
