Is there an 8?

I'm sorry, but there's no 8.  I bet you know what is up there now, though!

Of course there's a 9!  Light it up!

Yes!  Now just give us that last number, as I officially put the 9 into the equation here.

And you win!  $17,295, and that car is yours, congratulations, jhc!  That's four games in a row, all won!  We'll try for 5 in a row after this!

Now, I don't see why contestants had trouble with that game on the actual show.  Seemed simple enough to me.  But what do I know?  Rich, fetch me another player!

Rich:  Indeed I will, Frank, with tpiradam, come on down!  You're the next contestant on The Price is Right!

Take your spot, addy.  Here comes the lovely Dian with the next item up for bids.

Rich:  And the lovely Dian is wearing a gorgeous diamond pendant.  From Leandra Creations, this 14 karot white gold pendant has 44.00 carat amethyst and 1.25 carat diamond for a look to make any day that much more lovely.

And adam, start the bidding!

This is a game where playing Kakuro would definitely help.  I've played a little, with limited success.

I stand corrected.  There were three options, the two I had, and the one that won...

Add 'Em Up is one of those games that I think is way easier with 5 digit cars than with 4 digit ones, because you basically get two numbers free:  the one you ask for and the first one.  It's definitely easier when you only have 8 choices for the last three numbers instead of 9, especially in this case when the 1 & 2 ended up being the free numbers.  And in case you couldn't tell, I'm a Cross Sums fanatic...I should've waited until this game to get up on stage :-).

It may be easier for us, LiteBulb... but considering the many contestants on the show who would've asked for the first number free, I don't know how easy actual contestants might've found it.  I figured the game would probably be easy though, myself.

[color=009900]tpiradam:  $1100[/color]
[color=0000FF]edmojautis:  $1500[/color]
[color=FF9900]Futuregsh:  $1510[/color]


And has Future finally escaped contestants' row, or is he going to join the fine students who are having Saturday detention?  The actual retail price...

...actual retail price!  It's $3890, and Jade wins!  And Jade, I want you to come with me to the giant price tag, where we have the day's final game for something wonderful!  Now, some people may call me crazy, but believe or not, I want to give away another one of these!

Rich:  A new car!  A Subaru Impreza RS sedan, a fine car for a fine time out on the road in the country, driving here and there and everywhere in between, and it's really hard to make these car plugs sound even remotely interesting.  Comes with standard features, 2.5 liter engine, titanium shift knob, rear differential protector, SD Aspen white spoiler, short throw shifter, and steel grey metallic fog lamp kit, it's a Subaru Impreza!

And take a look at this price, Jade.

[color=0000FF]*Image deleted.[/color]

$31,414 is wrong!  Every digit is wrong, for that matter, but each digit is one away from the right number.  The 3 should be 2 or 4.  The 1 should be 0 or 2.  The 4 should be 3 or 5.  The 1 should be 0 or 2, and the 4 should be 3 or 5.  I said that twice, didn't I?  Well, tell me what you believe the price is for that lovely automobile, and if you're right, you win!

All right.  If the car is $20,305, you win it, but if you have at least one number right the game continues, so ask them "Ladies, do I have at least one number right?"

...

Oh yeah.  Message board.  Forgot.  That's not going to work.  Well, I guess I could tell you to ask, and you ask, and we keep doing that back and forth, but uh... that's not going to be too interesting, so I'll just ask for you.  Ladies, does Jade have at least one number right?

[color=0000FF]BEEP![/color]

You do, and the game continues!  Ask them... oops, I mean, I'll ask now:  ladies, does Jade have two numbers right?

...
[color=0000FF]BEEP![/color]

Yes you do!  Now... you know, who are these ladies, anyway?  I mean, I am the one controlling the sound effects, right?  But why break with tradition?  Ladies, does Jade have three numbers right?

...
...
...
[color=0000FF]BEEP![/color]

Yes!  Yes!  Yes!  Now ladies, does Jade have four numbers right?

...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...

No.  You have three numbers right, Jade, so change two of them.
