All right. All the bids are in, and-- *CLANGCLANGCLANGCLANGCLANG!* --oooh! That sound means that someone has bid perfectly! A $500 bonus to the person who bid... $1,000! Rick, come on up on stage! And here's five brand new $100 bills for that perfect bid. But, that's just chump change compared to what you *could* win...

Yes! Ten thousand dollars, playing the Grand Game! But you have to start with just one dollar. Now, what's our target price today?





$7.00. Now, you can win money by choosing which of these six products are under $7.00. Four of them are, but two of them are *above* that target price. If you pick those, the game is over. Now Ayjo, tell us about the products we're using today.

Ayjo: All right... first, we have Snackeroos Snack Cakes. Made with 99% sugar and artificial coloring and flavoring, a great after-school treat for kids who refuse to eat anything remotely food-like!

Next, we have Sneez-No-Mor Cold Medicine, nevermind that the graphic looks like a first-aid kit. Our budget stinks. It's 100% placebo, but sometimes people just think they need to take *something* when they're sick, right?

Then we have Blue! Brand Cleaner. Cleans all those tough-to-reach surfaces and stuff. It may even work better on blue surfaces, though this has yet to be proven scientifically.

Next, for a cool treat on a hot summer day, how about Icey-Pop Ice Cream Bars? You know, these ones have no artificial flavors. All *natural* cardboard!

And then we have "Old Lady Rub" Lotion. Fancy lotion used in vain by old ladies trying desperately to restore lost youth. It'd be sad if it wasn't so hilarious.

Finally, "Vitamin!", your non-descript source of daily vitamins A-L. I'd also like to take the moment to complain about our lackluster budget again.






Now Rick, pick out one of those products you think is *less* than $7.00!

XD Whoa! Holy crap! I didn't think I'd get lucky enough to get it on the nose! Nice!

Hmm! Let's see, I think I'll start with the Snack Cakes, YK!

The snack cakes are $1.39! Move him up to $10! Now, what else do you see there that's under $7?

You heard the spokescat. They're *all natural*. So, they must be some crazy upscale brand. In all honestly, though, I was gonna go with something else, changed at the last minute because I didn't want the game *too* hard, and forgot to adjust the price in my notes file. Oh well. It was a correct pick anyhow, so. No big.

That's $2.29, and you've won $1,000!

Now, as you know, you can take that $1,000 and quit, *or* you can try to pick the one remaining product under $7. If you're right, you win $10,000. If you're *wrong*, of course, you *lose* that $1,000. So are you going to continue, or is $1,000 enough for you?

All right, then. If that lotion is less than $7, you win ten thousand dollars!

1...

2...

3...






*losing horns*

Augh! It's $7.49... You lose that $1,000...

Let's see what you *should* have picked...





Yeah, it was the cold medicine. I'm sorry, Rick. But you'll be back to spin the big wheel soon enough.

So, Ayjo, who's our next contestant?

And here's the Price is Right Train, bringing out our next item!

Originally posted by Ayjo
Ayjo: It's a lovely area rug! And by "lovely", I mean "utterly hideous"! Features designs that look like something a fifth grader might draw, it's sure to liven up any hipster's studio apartment!


Orlandu, you get the first bid, followed by Aux, Ketsuban, and Anya.

Ketsuban, you have until tomorrow to bid, or I'm disqualifying you from this round; yer holding up the game.

(That said, I should have implemented time limits to keep the game flowing from the beginning... next episode will have them in place, though.)

All right. The bids are in, and the actual retail price of that "lovely" rug is... $699! Ketsuban, come on up here on stage! Right over here... and behind those doors, we have...





...Safe Crackers! Now, open that safe, and tell him what he can win, Ayjo!

Originally posted by Ayjo
Ayjo: A new truck! It's pretty badass, might be a Chevy or something, but hell if I'd know about trucks. It's black, anyhow.

Also, new luggage, so you can take a road trip or something, I dunno. It's pretty much indestructible, at any rate. We tested it by dropping it off the Grand Canyon, and it didn't get so much as a scratch. Awesome stuff. Gotta figure out how it works and steal its technology.

It's a Safe Crackers prize package worth... $17,205!



Now, let's lock that safe... and Ketsuban, it's up to you to crack it! The combination of the safe is the same as the price of the luggage, and I'll even give you the digits in the price: 0, 7, and 8. Use each digit once and only once, and if you're correct, you win both prizes! So, get crackin'!

All right... you have a price of $870... now, turn that wheel to the left! Now turn that wheel to the right! Now turn that wheel to the left again! Now pull on that handle, and...




...you're a winner! And you'll be right back to spin the big wheel!
