Bidding Order:
Mallory16 ------------> $3199
sideshowPA ------------> $4000
gamesurf ----------------> $1150
LiteBulb88 ------------> $1151


1233: The 1-upping starts bright and early today I see.

The bids are in and the price of the 2-in-1 clock goes for...




...so come on up, sideshowPA!!!


{cheers as we walk to turntable}

Before I continue, the clock was the only natural coincidence. Everything from this point on might have been subjected to some...tinkering.  ;)

Anyways, surely we have to start this show off with something nice. What do we have, Mr. Announcer!?

Announcer: We don't have to do anything, we could offer up peanuts. But, it just so happen that the first prize today is...



{door 3 opens}


...a brand new CAR!!!



The 2025 Chevrolet Trailblazer LS FWD comes with all the standard equipment as well as a floor mat package and license plate bracket! The Chevy Trailblazer!



{loud cheers}



1233: I knew we'd start off strong, and around on the turntable comes Switcheroo, the first pricing game to give away a car in this series. Hopefully we can repeat that feat here.

Fill in the missing number in each prize and win whatever you have right. I'll be nice and even give you 24 hours to do it.

Let's hear about the small prizes in the game today.



Announcer: First, this 3.5 inch ceramic dalmatian salt and pepper shaker set makes for a great housewarming gift for a somewhat close friend.

This party popper set is perfect for an underwhelming surprise party and includes over 75 different mess makers inside.

This 19 inch wooden boomerang is hand carved and makes a great gift for the Aussie in your life

And finally these eye-catching thigh boots have a 5 inch heel, are perfect for a night out celebration and can only be described as kinky.

There they are, 123!


{more cheers}

1233: Now you have everything you need to win that car, I hope. Get over there and fill in those prizes! Good luck!

{peppy clown music plays}
{suggestions from crowd}


*If anyone wants to try for the perfect show, just yell out the price of the car from the audience. I'll keep track throughout the show

{sideshow places blocks}



1233: Looks like as good of a guess as any.

Now let's light up how many prices are right in this little display that was always here and not just added during the last edit.







...









{ding, ding, ding, ding}
{crowd erupts with cheers}


Perfection! I've got a good feeling about today already. Well done, sideshow!

Let's keep the good times rolling. Call us down another winner, Mr. Announcer!

{camera shifts back to crowd}

Announcer: Surely tpir04 fits the bill, you're the next contestant on The Price is Right!!


{loud cheers}


1233: Welcome tpir04, now you and the rest of the row have a look at the new item for you to bid on.


Announcer: The next game never to be played on this series is Gridlock, probably because of how hard it is to draw cars in Paint.

So in it's honor, we're are sending you on a trip where you'd get stuck in plenty of gridlock traffic...Washington D.C.!!!




DC holds the US record for longest average commute time and you get to see it in all its "glory". You and a guest will fly coach from Los Angeles to Washington DC, where you will stay 7 nights at the Grand Hyatt Washington and thankfully be walking distance from some of the most popular monuments in the city!


{cheering}

1233: I can already smell all the smog from here. tpir04, what's your bid?

Bidding Order:
tpir04 ---------------> $7450
gamesurf ------------> $5328
LiteBulb88 ------------> $6666
Mallory16 ------------> $1


1233: The price of the trip is...




...and gamesurf is on their way to see the cherry blossoms bloom!!


{loud applause as we walk to door 2}





Haven't seen this ATM in a while, but I think it means we have a lot of great prizes for you behind this door. Tell us all about them, Mr. Announcer!


{door 2 opens}


Announcer: Wheels, wheels and more wheels! It's a wonderful array of wheeled prizes!!



First, this 6 ft tall bellman's cart has a satin brass finish, a 1500 lb capacity and a 4 ft long burgundy loading deck.

This electric segway has a 1500W motor, a 50 mile riding range and rugged oversized tires for the toughest of suburban terrain

This 6 ft tall waste bin is made of polystyrene, has a 2000 lb capacity and will be holding most of the unused stage props after this show if you don't win

We also have a 4 ft tall hot dog ferris wheel cart with 6 dog capacity, large spoked wheels, a bun warmer, removable drip tray and convenient pull handle

Finally, this wine trolley is 32 inch tall, has a polished stainless steel frame with a silver finish and an eloquent lift-off top mirrored tray for versatile wine trollying!

There they are, Numbers!



{loud cheers}




1233: All about getting different things to different places on different wheels. Plus there's the hot dog cart tpir04 desperately wanted, maybe you guys can strike a deal  :-)

{hands credit card to gamesurf}

We've had multiple shows throughout celebrating retired games, so that's why Credit Card is back onstage. Let find out your credit limit for today.


{inserts card}




{ding}

$5,000 and without even needing a hard credit check! We try and treat you well here. As long as you buy 3 of these items without passing your limit, we'll continue to treat you well.

Otherwise, crippling credit card debt as far as the eye can see. Good luck!

Waste bin, bellman’s cart… wine trolley?

That hot dog cart could be anything, but I’m trying to avoid things you have to plug in

1233: Electricity equals expensive, that's decent rationale. Let's start with the waste bin, it costs...



{tag drops}



{ding}

That's a little chunk, but nothing to worry about. Still have almost $3,000 to play with. How much is the bellman's cart?




{tag drops}



{buzz}

Oh, well... that's a bit anticlimactic. The credit card company is going to have a field day with you.  :-)

Anyways, let's reveal the rest of the prices.



{flips rest of tags}



That was quite a hard setup, but let's look on the bright side. You'll get a chance to redeem yourself at the wheel soon enough.

Plus, you might be in the Credit Card record books as the first contestant not to make all three purchases before going broke. That's something, right?



...



...uh, more games and prizes coming up after this break!!

A hard setup... unless you just went "eh, the bottom three are always right!" :oldlol:

Not wanting to admit she too would've taken the wine trolley.

Surely that's not what the producer was hoping would happen, anywho...

********

{back from commercial break}

1233: We have this open spot in the row that could be filled with anybody in the whole world, but we need a specific person right now. Who could it be now, Mr. Announcer?

Announcer: How about geniusinmath? You are the next contestant on 123's TPiR!


{cheers and applause}


1233: We got a full row, so let's hear about the next item up for bids.

Announcer: The next game never played is To The Penny, a shame considering the strategy and fun gameplay involved. But don't worry, you can all save up your pennies with...


{door 3 opens}


...this kitchen appliance package, brought to you by Plessers, everything's lesser at Plessers!



This package includes a 4 burner stainless steel free-standing cooktop range, a stainless steel 22.9 cu. ft. counter depth quad door refrigerator and a 24 inch full console dishwasher. Again, for all your appliance needs, makes sure to head to Plessers! Everything, and I mean everything, is lesser at Plessers!!



{cheers}


1233: I distinctly remember there also being a microwave with the package when I saw it during rehearsal, what gives?

Announcer: It is currently in the break room, replacing our old broken microwave. Probably don't want to give away used goods, wouldn't you agree?

1233: I see, can't argue with that. geniusinmath, what is your bid?
