The Price is Right - 5/25/12 Episode

Today was a fairly average episode of The Price is Right - until Alexandra's performance in "Lucky Seven."

Going for a Honda Civic LX, Alexandra took it right down to the wire. Playing along at home, I actually guessed the exact same numbers for the second, third and fourth digits. I "played it safe" with a 5 as the last digit. Alexandra did not...


...and was rewarded with a new car (I would've lost). Nicely done.

It would have been hard to top yesterday's 5-for-6 showing, but this was a solid highlight of a 3-for-6 (which seems better than average the last few months) episode.

Margarita also had a nice win in "The Bargain Game" (nee "Barker's Bargain Bar"). Here's the setup:


Both of those prices are "bargain" prices, and you have to pick which is the bigger bargain. I thought this was a trap game: $786 sure seems really low for a motor scooter. I've seen them sneak in $3K grills, though. I'd have gone with the grill, which at $2,049 was a $500 bargain.

Margarita went for the scooter...
