Anyone else see The Price is Right today?
 
The Mexican restaurant I went to for lunch today was showing The Price is Right on their TVs, and one of the grand prize packages included a firestorm FR-S. It was really weird seeing it on a game show. Unfortunately the woman bidding on the package overshot the estimate and lost. Wish I could've been on the show; I would've made a much better price estimate on it ;)

That's quite a risky move on the show's part, considering it's such a coveted and well-covered car. Shame on her for not getting it

How much did she guess?

$28,000. But it included a trip to Oregon or something. Still, I don't think the trip would be worth over $3,000...

Geez, most people know nothing about the FR-S, much less who the governor of their state is, what two countries border the U.S. and how old the earth is (many Republican Congressmen think that it is 11,000 years old).

yet they know where the food stamp,and fuel allocation offices are located!
funny how that works!

If the contestant wasn't familiar with the FR-S it's a given that their estimated price would be too high. We're learning more and more every day what a bargain this car is.

The Price is Right used to have some rental type cars when Bob Barker was the host. Since Drew Carey, they've been giving away some nicer cars. :thumbsup:

Lots of smart low income folks. Lots of stupid high-income people. Anyone see the stunt that Trump pulled last week? LOL.
