Synopsis
In every episode, contestants are selected from the studio audience and asked to guess the price of a product. The contestant whose guess is the closest to the price of the prize, without going over the price, wins the product and continues to play a solo game. In the solo pricing game, larger prizes are awarded if the contestant guesses correctly. There is a showcase showdown at the end of the 3rd and 6th rounds, players must spin a wheel with cash denominations trying to get one dollar without going over. The person who wins each round will advance to the showcase round. In the showcase round, each of the two contestants will bid on a prize package. The contestant with the greater amount of winnings can bid on the first prize package or pass it to the other contestant. The player who comes closest to the dollar amount of the prize package without going over wins. If a contestant comes $250 or less away from the price of their package, they win both packages.-
