Comments

Five Pricing Games were won today. If only One Away was won...
*The combined record of all Pricing Games this week is an impressive 21-9. To date, all Pricing Games so far this season have a record of 404-463 (46.6%).
*Clearance Sale: Tricky. It was a tossup deciding whether the dinette or the fun cart was the most expensive prize.
*Lucky Seven: This game is currently 1-1 this season when it's played second. Hey, it's a better record than when it's played first (4-11).
*Shell Game: Franz added some humor to the game, when he tried to pick up one of the shells. And as usual, Bob added some fun to the game, by adding the usual suspense at the end of the game, and by having a great reaction to Franz trying to pick up the shell (such as doing a practice chop then pretending to have hurt his hand). This is the second time Shell Game has been played for a car this season. Interestingly enough, it's also the only two times it has been won this season.
*Showcase #1, which featured a car, was cheaper than Showcase #2, which featured a piano. Weird.
*In the past two weeks, we've seen Shell Game, Bonus Game and Joker, while Cliff Hangers and Secret "X" have been absent. Strange.
