Comments

*Price sure was in the Christmas spirit today. They played Triple Play and Punch-A-Bunch, Double Prices for a piano, had for IUFBs that were $1,500 or more and one Showcase that was nearly $30,000. Unfortunately, there wasn't any big wins. But, at least they tried to give a lot away.
*Three pricing games were won today.
*Punch-A-Bunch: In four of the last five playings, contestants managed to win $1,000 or more.
