*Showcase Winner

 Comments 

*Very good show tonight. Triple Play was won, the Showcases were fantastic and the contestants were very good.
*Two pricing games were won tonight.
*Triple Play: Great win. Thomas was a very good contestant. I'm very happy he won. Once again, it was a predictable playing. You had to pick the first price for the first car, the second price for car number two and the third price for the third card.
*Plinko: Only $2,000 was won tonight. Oh well, it's better than the $1,000 wins in Punch-A-Bunch.
*Clock Game: It's about time they play this game in primetime!
*Barker's Bargain Bar: They were pretty much forced to play this game, considering the prizes were $3,995 and $4,000. It would have been hard to win Switch?, One Right Price or Magic # with such little difference between the two prices.
*Grocery Game: Melissa had an interesting strategy, that's for sure. The reveal for the three rooms was pretty interesting as well.
*Thomas is the biggest winner ever in daytime and primetime Price is Right history. Congratulations Thomas! Enjoy your four cars!
*Bob's reveal for the second item up for bids was sure full of suspense - it was very obvious John had won.
*Looks like tonight's episode was the last time we'll ever see Heather in a first run episode of the Price is Right.

*These primetime specials were simply amazing. There was lots of winning. Over $900,000 in cash and prizes was won. including 15 cars. Also, one contestant won $127,660 and the Navy special nearly gave away $200,000 in cash and prizes. There were many surprises, such as Temptation being played and Lucky Seven being played fifth. There were several big wins, like the $40,000 win in Plinko and the two Triple Play wins. There was disappointments, such as the Golden Road lost, no $100,000 winner in a Showcase Showdown and the lack of wins in the Police and Firefighters Special. Most importantly, there was lots of fun and magical moments. These specials were a true gift to any Price is Right fan. Let's hope we get one or two (or three) of them next season.
