And we are back for the grand finale of our summer!

Let's start with ASja.  You bid $35,784 on your showcase, which included that great Cadillac.

The actual retail price of your showcase is.....





Thirty-seven thousand, two ninety-seven, for a difference of....



One thousand, thirteen....a well-researched bid.


Flerbert, you bid $25,052 on your showcase...a fantastic tribute to Mike Richards.

The actual retail price of your showcase is....

...


...


One hundred, thirty-one thousand {{gasps}}, five, twenty-nine......



A difference that is not ever worth mentioning....and ASja is our summer champion!!!



ASja, who only made it up on stage for our last game is our big winner for the summer!!



I hope these shows helped fill the void of the summer of reruns, and hope you all come back to play the many great Host Your Owns our members create.

I am excited to announce that I have personally asked two of our members, who I believe run some of the best HYO's around, to create show specifically tailored for the 40th season premiere.

Come back on Friday as CJ Bojangles and TPIRighteous open their shows for sign-ups, and start them on Monday....the date of the premiere of Season 40!!



Notes:

Here are the CSS results.....and oh wow, what a CSS it was.  Guess you all thought I was being evil-cheap on the Richards showcase, when I itentionally went in the opposite direction.  Showcase 1, meanwhile, was meant to feel expensive, but had quite a cheap selection of items.



Want to go to the South Pole?  It will cost you $58,000...per person....check it out here....

When I first saw the prices for the second showcase, I said things that are not fit to print. I hope that trip doesn't get offered for real.  :-o. Other than that, I really enjoyed the Weekly Summer Pricing Game, Sideshow.

Before seeing the breakdown, I figured it was just a $100,000 toilet.

Thanks for running this, and I hope to see it again next year.
