help The Price Is Right FAQ
How does a contestant win both showcases on The Price Is Right?
A contestant wins both showcases by making a bid that comes within $250 of the actual retail price without going over. This is known as a Double Showcase Win and is much rarer than winning only the contestant's own showcase.
What happens if everyone overbids in Contestants' Row?
The same contestants bid again on the item after being told that every first bid was too high. A contestant who states the exact retail price earns a cash bonus in addition to advancing onstage.
Is Plinko the only pricing game on the show?
No. Plinko is among the best-known games, but the rotation also includes Cliff Hangers, Hole in One, Punch-a-Bunch and many others. Each game uses retail-price estimates to determine whether the contestant wins cash, a car or another prize.
Who hosted The Price Is Right before Drew Carey?
Bob Barker hosted the CBS daytime version from 1972 until his retirement in 2007. Drew Carey succeeded him and retained major elements such as Contestants' Row, the Showcase Showdown wheel and the final showcases.
