*Showcase Winner

Comments

*Great show today. Five pricing games were won, including Lucky Seven and It's in the Bag, $1,000 was given away in the second Showcase Showdown and the contestants were fun. The only downside was the Showcase. Both showcases were below $17,500 and neither were all the interesting.
*Poor Herman. He overbidded on his showcase by $111. Perhaps he should call Daniel, the contestant who overbid on his showcase by $29, so that they can console each other.
*Pricing games are 17-7 so far this week! Car games are 7-1
*Ouch. The Dinette Syndrome and the "I'll go against the odds and keep the $500" syndrome struck Christyne today.
*No pricing games were played on the turntable today. With the exception of Double Prices, all the pricing games were played on stage.
*Yesterday, there was a contestant named Soleil. Today, there was a contestant named Summer. Will there be a contestant with a summer related name tomorrow?
