*Showcase Winner

Comments

*Fairly good show today. They played good games (like Pathfinder and Buy or Sell) and the contestants were pretty good. It's unfortunate that only two pricing games were won and the showcases were really, really dull.
*It was also a budget episode. Five of the six Item Up For Bids were less than $1,000 and three of them were lower than $600. Also, the showcases were cheap, Pathfinder was played for a cheaper car than normal and Freeze Frame, Magic # and Easy As 1-2-3 were played for not very expensive prizes.
*Wow! The right path in Pathfinder actually lead to a 0/5 decision for the fifth digit!
*Today was the cheapest playing of Easy As 1-2-3 of the season. The three prizes totalled a mere $2,449, surpassing the previous mark of $2,583.
*A safe, a punch bowl set and a curio cabinet. I bet Jacqueline was really motivated to win Buy or Sell with those prizes.
*Was why Bob so upset in Magic #? What's so annoying about a contestant taking five minutes to play with the lever and randomly placing it somewhere?
