[ooboh]

Am I the only one who thinks that playing Rat Race and Let 'em Roll on the same episode creates some sort of pricing game conflict?

Recap posted.

[JayC]

Great win in Let em Roll to start off the show. Swap Meet was pretty tough, I did pick the reading nook myself though. At least Denise was more than able to make up for it in the Showcase Showdown winning $11,000.

Samona was just about perfect in Rat Race, getting all but the air purifier.

I worried a bit when Amber picked the first number for free in 2 For 1, but she did end up winning so it was fine in the end.

Too bad Lenee didn't win in Squeeze Play, but the paw behind the numbers was cute.

Ugh, a double overbid to end the week. A surprisingly cheap first Showcase.

No, I agree with you.
