Nels, in a few moments, you may be going home with THAT!  A NEW SUV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! From Chevrolet, the all new 2021 Equinox SUV, a handsome and spacious compact SUV, comes equipped with all the standard features, California emissions...with tax and license it is worth... $26,853!!!!!!!! (applause) And as advertised Nels, we have a BRAND NEW pricing game, which is inspired by an OLD retired pricing game...  It's called REACH FOR THE TOP.... As you can see by our flashing game board over there, the SUV is indeed at the TOP of that ladder. Now in order to win that SUV, you will begin at the "START" position in just a moment. In order to move up that ladder and to reach to the top, you need to be able to price some of these small prizes which we will now describe for you...  First, from Hamilton beach comes this automatic smooth touch can opener. Quickly opens cans of soup, juice, vegetables and more. It's versatile design ensures safety with its use. Next, Black & Decker's 3.6 volt Lithium Ion cordless sweeper, clear up messy floors easily and quickly, it's Lilon battery provides up to 30 minutes of cordless usage. Next, a cooling fan. Honeywell presents the Turbo Force table fan, comes in black, provides intense cooling power for any room. Next, from Bostitch, a personal electric pencil sharpener, comes with hardened steel helical cutting blades and thermal overload shut-off. Finally, a pasta maker, this deluxe pasta making set is by Cucino Pro, includes attachment to make spaghetti, fettuccine, angel hair pasta and more...  Very good. Now Nels. The starting block is lit up on the board now. I will ask you to choose one of these 5 prizes in a moment to price. Each product has a different method to be used in determining the right price. You can make one mistake in this game and still win the SUV, but no more than one mistake. A second mistake and you're all through. If you make a mistake, you will move down one rung on the ladder. If you are right however, you will move up one. The next rung on the ladder says $1,000. I will ask you to select a prize and then I'll present to you a way to price it. Price it correctly and you'll move up to the $1,000 rung. Price it wrong however, and you'll go down into the "Hole", and then you'll have to play perfectly from then on in order to win the SUV. Which product do you want to try first Nels, the can opener, the sweeper, the fan, the pencil sharpener or the pasta making kit? |

Very well. Now to win the pencil sharpener and to get one rung higher up to the top of the prize ladder, we want you to see that we have a price of...  $32 on it. That price IS wrong. Taken from Shell Game, Bonus Game & Punch-A-Bunch, this time we want you to correctly identify whether the right price is HIGHER or LOWER than $32 for that pencil sharpener Nels. |

He says it is lower than 32 dollars... WHIRL IT ABOUT!  (DING) You are right! It's $27. You've won that prize and now you move UP one rung...  (DING) Now then Nels, you are up to $1,000. If you want to end the game right now, you will win $1,000 in cash. If you wish to continue playing and try for that car, you may do so. If you want to continue, select one of the four remaining prizes. If you get the pricing question right on that item, you'll move up another rung closer to the SUV BUT, if you are WRONG on your next pricing decision, you drop down back to the "START" point. What do you wish to do? |

Can opener

Post by billmcdee on Mar 16, 2021 5:16:46 GMT -5
Very well... This time, in order to win the can opener and take one step closer to the Top...  Is to tell me, is 6 the first number in the price, or is the zero the last digit in the price? |

Post by nelson17 on Mar 16, 2021 18:32:37 GMT -5
0 is last

Is the zero the right number?  (ding) Yes it IS!!!!!!!!!  (ding) Now you are up to $5,000 and just one step away from the top and winning that SUV. You may stop now and take $5,000 or you can try for one more right answer. If you miss the next one, you'll drop down to $1,000 again but will still have a chance for the SUV. Before you decide whether or not you want to continue, I want to point out something. One of the 3 small prizes will have two possible prices, you would need to pick the right one to win. Another one of the 3 small prizes will have a price and I'll ask you if you believe the price is true or false. And on the other remaining prize there will be 3 digits showing, but only 2 are correct, and you'll have to remove the incorrect digit. Those are the pricing questions attached to those other 3 prizes some where. With that knowledge in mind Nels, do you want to take $5,000 and leave or do you want to try for the SUV? IF you elect to continue, please select from one of the three remaining prizes still in play which are the sweeper, the fan and the pasta making kit. |

The sweeper

Post by billmcdee on Mar 17, 2021 16:17:37 GMT -5
And for this prize...  Is that sweeper $24 or $35 Nels? Price it correctly and the SUV is yours. Price it wrong, and you'll drop back down to the $1,000 level. |

If that sweeper is $24, you will win it, but much more importantly, the SUV will be YOURS Nels! Show us!!!!!!!  (buzz) NO!!!!!!! It was $35! The bad news is, you now move down one rung on the ladder... (ding)  Back down to $1,000 if you elect to quit the game now. However, you STILL could win that SUV. You are 2 steps away from the top, and there are 2 prizes remaining. If you continue and make another mistake, the game will be over. If you continue and make a mistake on this next turn, you will lose this $1,000. Assuming you do not want to quit, which prize do you want to try for next, the fan or the pasta kit? |

Fan

Post by billmcdee on Mar 18, 2021 16:24:10 GMT -5
Let us see what you have to do with this fan Nels...  It has a price tag of $21 on it. What you need to do is to determine whether that price is true or false. If you are correct, you're still alive. Get this wrong and the game is all over. Is $21 a true price or a false price on that fan Nels? |

True

Post by billmcdee on Mar 19, 2021 6:06:56 GMT -5
If it's true, you're still in the game. And it is........  False! (buzzer)  (losing horns) And I'm afraid you are all through here Nels. I am genuinely sorry. But you do have a pencil sharpener, a can opener, and will get to spin the big wheel later on! Right now, please watch these messages of interest! |
