(Johnny Gilbert) Is this one of your fantasies? You see a big, beautiful supermarket, and they say to you "Go ahead! Do what you've always wanted to do!

I'm going to list several grocery items.
Select 1, and when the game begins on Wednesday, I will call out those 3 products. The three players who are holding said items will be told "Come on, you're on!"
Select just 1 item to "hold" until the announcement is made...
Eggo Waffles
Clorox Liquid Bleach
Ragu Spaghetti Sauce
Lipton's Iced Tea Mix
Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup
Shake 'N Bake
Wonder Bread
Quaker Instant Oatmeal
Okay, 8 items total. Once they run out, then they run out. If not all items are taken, the unclaimed ones will be taken out of the mix at the start of the show when players are called to come down to play.
More to come!
Bill

Sorry stratonascar, only one item per customer, they cannot be shared, but you're welcome to select any of the remaining items. The Clorox and the Wonder Bread have been claimed thus far.

As the proverbial cat is out of the bag, I congratulate Evan in realizing that this was indeed an April Fool's prank.

Aw, nice one! I had my hunches, too, considering that the hook of this show was downright impossible to duplicate on a message board!

I'm not so much surprised by this being a joke as I am at how terrifically this joke was executed. Very good work, Bill!
