[[caption-width-right:350:Cynthia cleans the Clock Game in under 10 seconds for a million-dollar payoff.]]

''Series/ThePriceIsRight'' has aired for years on all three "big" networks (Creator/{{NBC}}, Creator/{{ABC}}, Creator/{{CBS}}) and both kinds of syndication (weekly and daily)... so you'd better believe there are quite a few.
----
[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:In General...]]
* Every Double Showcase Win. This extends to bids that would have awarded both Showcases had the Double Showcase Rule been in effect.
* Any time a player gets the price exactly right after another player tried bidding $1 more.
* Any time a player bids $1 ''less'' than a previous contestant and still wins.
* Anytime in the Showcase Showdown someone gets a dollar in their first spin or a combination of two, then gets the dollar again on their bonus spin for $11,000/$26,000 (or on Dream Car Week, whatever car is being offered in the Showdown).
* Anytime all 6 pricing games are won on the same show. This is also known as a "perfect show". Even more awesome if this and a Double Showcase win occur on the same show.
* Johnny Olson. He never missed a taping [[note]](the first ~2,700 daytime shows, all 301 shows of the 1972-80 nighttime version, and about half of the 170-episode Kennedy run)[[/note]], coming in regardless of his health. Holly Hallstrom recalled a taping where Johnny was throwing up in a pail next to him but continued to sound like he always did; director Marc Breslow told him to speed up the reading of the Showcase copy, and Olson managed to comply without missing a beat. The man was a trouper.
* Rod Roddy. His tenure from 1986-2003 is still currently the longest of all four announcers so far. His seemingly never-ending collection of sparkly, multi-color jackets were always a treat to see. Unlike Johnny, he did have to miss tapings, but the only tapings he would miss were those specifically related to his later-in-life cancer treatments, and during that time, as long as he had been healthy enough to come in and announce, he would do so, and always give his full effort, right up to the very end.
** Additionally, the very first Showcase winner on Rod's first permanent episode (2/17/86) took home a ''$54,772'' payday, largely helped by a Jaguar in the showcase.
* Janice Pennington. Having been on the show since its 1972 return, she, [[LovelyAssistant Vanna White]], and maybe Cindy Crawford and Naomi Campbell are the only known models to stay on past their "expiration dates" (although Cindy these days "models" her furniture collection). In 1988, an inexperienced camera guy swung the wrong way during the opening, causing severe injuries to Pennington. The resulting surgery left her unable to model swimsuits, and yet she continued for '''12 more years''', remaining loyal to Bob Barker even through all his scandals in the 1990s. She and Kathleen Bradley were fired after the December 15, 2000, show; Barker said it was budget cuts, but it was really after they had testified against him in a trial.
* Thin Drew Carey! He looks ''fantastic''! Losing over 80 lbs. means he also ''beat type-2 diabetes''.
* Any win off a "Big 4" game: Golden Road, 3 Strikes, Triple Play, Pay The Rent.
* Winning Pay the Rent when they're ''not'' trying to give the $100,000 away.
* For pricing games:[[note]](All of these ''have'' happened at least once during the show's run.)[[/note]]
** In Any Number, winning by picking all the numbers in the price of the car without putting any numbers in the smaller prize or piggy bank.
** 5 Price Tags: Winning the car either by earning all four picks of the five price tags (more awesome if the first choice is the winner), or – if only one pricing question is correct – winning on the lone chance.
** In Grocery Game, either getting within the winning range with only one item or finishing the game with the highest possible winning total, regardless of how many items purchased.
** Winning on the first try in Bonkers or Race Game, or winning on the final guess after the buzzer.
** Winning Cliff Hangers by getting all three prices exactly right, or having the mountain climber stop on the very last (25th) step.
** Winning Check Game by writing down the amount of cash needed to reach the maximum limit.
** Winning Cover Up or One Away on the first guess.
** Winning Temptation. It's a hard game and you get the four gifts on top of the car as well for winning.
** In Range Game, having the correct price be near the very top or very bottom of the red area when the contestant stops it.
** In Dice Game:
*** Have each roll be the correct number, a 1, or a 6, automatically winning the car.
*** Successfully guessing a number against the odds (i.e., higher than 4 or 5 or lower than a deuce or trey).
** In Hole in One, getting all six items in the correct order, making a putt from the last line, or having a putt bounce off the backstop and into the hole.
** In Let 'Em Roll, rolling all five cars in a single roll.
** In Master Key, getting only one price correct but selecting the "master" key. That, or getting both keys and they end up being both the "master" key and the key that opens the car.
** In Pathfinder or Pocket Change, getting the price of the car without making any mistakes.
** Dropping more than one Plinko chip into the highest value slot.
** In Rat Race, winning all three rats, then having your chosen three rats come in first, second, and third, winning all three prizes.
** In Switcheroo, getting all five prices right on either guess, but especially the first.
** In Spelling Bee:
*** Winning all three extra cards, going for the car, and the result is some combo of C-A-R, CAR, and CAR.
*** Or guessing one of the prices ''exactly'', which automatically wins all three extra cards regardless of prior bad guesses or remaining items.
** 3 Strikes: Winning aside, taking the game without pulling out any Strikes. Additional points if the numbers are drawn in order and/or the contestant correctly places the given number on each number's first appearance.
** In Money Game, getting the front and the back of the vehicle in the first two picks.
** In Punch-a-Bunch, getting the top prize on either the very first punch or the only punch you've earned.
** In Pass the Buck, earning all three picks, and getting the maximum potential total of $8,000 and the car.
** In Time Is Money, getting the price ranges of all the grocery items right in the first 10 seconds, therefore winning the full $20,000.
** In Ten Chances, winning all three prizes in the first three chances ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0j_ByXHdjOM#t=1m23s That one time where the staff member didn't load the numbers into the board doesn't count]]).
* Whenever a contestant wears a shirt that ends up [[{{Foreshadowing}} foreshadowing]] their game -- '''especially''' if it's Plinko.
* On January 2, 2020, ''The Price is Right'' became the first game show to appear in eight consecutive decades, a feat only matched by one other game show: ''Series/ToTellTheTruth''.

[[folder:Bill Cullen (1956-65)]]
* Doris Wiltse holds the original show's all-time top winnings record. In seven weeks on the NBC nighttime show in 1963, she accumulated $76,110 in merchandise, which equals $767,111.70 in 2024 money.
* Nancy Griebel, a contestant on a 1963 nighttime show, came closest to the price of a light bulb (67 cents) without going over...and as a bonus prize, she won over $8,000 in electric appliances.
* When the show moved to ABC in the Fall of 1963, there was an addition to the usual home sweepstakes: the winner, flown to New York to be a contestant, was offered his/her choice of a working oil well or $25,000. An elderly gentleman was the winner of that sweepstakes, and chose the $25,000 because "I haven't got time to wait for the well!"
* Richard Keyes was a contestant in the final weeks of the NBC nighttime show, and his bonus, after winning a sailboat, was to be an honorary judge at the Miss America Pageant. He got to do a meet-and-greet with all the contestants and after observing them in various categories, he wrote down the names of the five girls he thought had the best chance to be crowned Miss America. Those selections were placed in a sealed envelope and kept in abeyance until the first ABC nighttime show on September 18 (eleven days after the pageant). If any of Mr. Keyes' selections made it to the semi-finals, he won $2,500. If any of his selections became a finalist, he won $5,000. If any of his selections was named Miss America, he won $10,000. (The September 18 show does not circulate, so the results of Mr. Keyes' selections remain an enigma.)
* The nighttime version had a ''really'' insane prize budget (even compared to the Mega-Showcases offered in Australia decades later!), which resulted in such outlandish prizes as corporate stock, an airplane, or ''an island in the Saint Lawrence Seaway''. In later years, thanks to a strong economy, the show could offer new homes and even ''new businesses''! There were also ridiculously extravagant bonuses attached to benign prices, such as a live peacock to go with a color TV (that's [[Creator/{{NBC}} the color guide]], [[VisualPun get it?]]) or, along with backyard party supplies, entertainment supplied by jazz legend Woody Herman and his ''dozen-man strong orchestra''.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Bob Barker (1972-2007)]]
* Bob Barker's 35-year tenure in general, missing just one taping (in 1974).
* September 4, 1972: Paul Levine, the first contestant ever to play Bonus Game, got ''all four prizes'', winning the bonus prize by default. To top that off, he won his Showcase with a difference of '''$4'''. [[note]](There was no Double Showcase Rule until April 1974.)[[/note]]
* August 15, 1974: The first Double Showcase win.
* March 24, 1975: The "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Efd8ugUbEoo Greatest Showcase War]]". Both women bid within the Double Showcase threshold ($99 or less), with the winner getting both Showcases by being '''$1''' closer. This is the closest possible moment the show had to what would have been a situation where '''both''' contestants would win '''both''' showcases.
* November 3, 1975: The first permanent hour-long show has a perfect show, starting with the first Golden Road win.
* October 25, 1977: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_VHlC9Z7eE Everything you'd need to compete with your neighbor]]. A showcase that wouldn't have been out of place on the concurrent syndicated version, especially in terms of the number of prizes, not to mention a Chevy Chevy and a Cadillac...AND SHE WON IT FOR $19,911 ALL TOLD!! [[note]]In fact, had she bid $19,000 even, it would've been a $16 DSW and a total of $24,158, a likely record for the time.[[/note]]
* December 25, 1979: On this Christmas Day playing of the Grocery Game, a contestant buys 35 5th Avenue candy bars...[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3czMcbQKtU which were 20¢ each leading to a win on the nose!]]
* March 25, 1983: From the first playing of "Master Key", the contestant only earned one key. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FSTOHCDO8I Guess which key she got?]]
* February 14, 1983: A contestant playing Grocery Game, who claims to watch the show every day, proves herself right when she buys 27 packs of Dentyne gum at 25¢ each. She instantly wins the game with a total of $6.75, right in the winning range.
* October 25, 1984: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvjqySB4mJI This contestant]] only managed to earn just ONE punch on the Punchboard, and even then, she only earned it on the very last small prize. Sometimes, you can win four punches and get $50 (or $100 nowadays) on each one. But sometimes, one punch is all you need...
* December 20, 1984: [[https://youtu.be/lbfFhONafhc?si=83O7mTjbEBZAszok Michelle, who's heavily pregnant, wins the Race Game on the first try, getting all the price tags in the correct places in just 9 seconds]]. Bob was concerned about whether she'd be able to play, even offering to have Janice do the running for her. But when she wins, he says "In the future, we want only mothers about-to-be in this game.".
* May 15, 1985: Cheryl wins $10,000 after getting a second-chance punch from her third and final punch in Punch-A-Bunch, along with the $250 from her third punch.
* September 12, 1985: One of the closest wins in the history of the Range Game happened when the top of the rangefinder stopped between $8,053 and $8,054, with the contestant earning an $8,053 Pontiac Sunbird station wagon.
* November 11, 1985: A contestant wins the car on the ''Deluxe'' Dice Game [[note]](at the time, as 5-digit car prices were then uncommon due to inflation, certain games had retrofitted boards and special names when played for cars valued at least $10,000 or more, such as 3 Strikes+ and Deluxe Dice Game)[[/note]] by rolling all sixes.
* March 12, 1986: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHDAvQZwOTA The utmost perfection in 3 Strikes +.]] Yes, that's right -- all five numbers, in order, on the first try, with no Strikes...and this came ''after'' she won $100 for a perfect bid!
* April 7, 1987: On its debut playing, Pathfinder is played perfectly.
* November 30, 1990: A Plinko contestant scores $21,000 (out of a possible $25,000) by dropping four chips into the $5,000 slot and one in the $1,000 slot. Although future contestants have won more money playing Plinko, this is still the closest anyone has ever come to officially winning the game.[[note]]WordOfGod says that Plinko is only won if the contestant wins the stated grand prize.[[/note]]
* September 11, 1991: On the first pricing game of the day, a lady runs the table on One Away. That's awesome by itself, but she was playing for a ''Cadillac''[[note]](This was during a stretch where One Away was played exclusively for luxury cars.)[[/note]] '''and''' admitted that she never did as well playing along at home. She later went on to win the Showcase, winning a total of $54,032.
* January 13, 1992: Danielle Torres, then a student at Pepperdine University, won a Lincoln Continental Signature Series in 3 Strikes+, and later went on to win a Showcase which included a Corvette. Her final total was $88,865, which was a ''Price'' record for a dozen years.
* September 23, 1992: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7x9YpgDxbI The only perfect playing of SuperBall.]]
* 1990s: A GenreSavvy contestant named Chad '''owns''' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izSzWUYwjJo Cliff Hangers.]] The prices? $20-$30-$40.
* 1990s: An elderly gentleman is playing Punch-A-Bunch, and after earning his punches, punches out four slots. Bob takes out the slip behind the sixth hole, but just as he takes it out the man asks if he can get a redo since "[[NumberOfTheBeast six is the Devil's number]]." Bob simply looks at the slip, flashes a quick smirk, and rather than his usual routine of teasing TheReveal, says "Sir, would the Devil do THIS?" The Devil made him win $10,000!
* January 26, 1996: A guy named Bryan played Punch-A-Bunch, got $5,000 (then the second-highest value) on his first punch, and ''gave it back''. The audience was nearly unanimously against him, and his response? "Audience, if you're scared, buy a dog. I'm going for it!" He went for it, and he got it!
* August 23, 1996: The 25th Anniversary special marked the first time someone won six figures, a Corvette win in Lucky $even plus a Showcase win equals $121,608.
* October 4, 1996: Walter plays the Dice Game for a Mercury. And he became the first player to run the table!
* 1997: Louis playing the Range Game is initially given the buzzer, but Barker looks at the rangefinder [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQVGdsZH_lY and declares "He made it!"]] He points out to the contestant that the lower bit of the red strip is barely touching the actual price of the item; the rule is if ''any'' part of the red area is touching the arrow of the price, it's a win. It also helps that Barker was an executive producer at the time, [[ExecutiveMeddling and could pretty much declare anyone a winner if he felt like it.]]
* October 6, 1998: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNObNyCHsbg Two contestants got $1 during a Showcase Showdown, then got it ''again'' in their Bonus Spin-Off, giving both of them $11,000!]]
* January 4, 1999: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdCCjpR1q_w Contestant Jayme S]] won Check Game by writing down $2,200, the exact amount of cash needed to reach the then-$6,000 maximum on the game. He then followed that up with a DSW in the Showcase for a total of $51,700.
%% * January 8, 1999: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aqu98fPrmc This playing of Spelling Bee.]]
* February 24, 2000: While he didn't win anything, a contestant named Walter amazed everyone in the studio when he [[https://youtu.be/HjT7bSHAHAU yodeled the "Cliff Hangers" jingle]]. Recognizing his talent, the crew stopped playing the recording after he first did this, and let him provide the music himself!
* 2001: Three times in a row does a player run the table on Switcheroo.
* May 17, 2002: The first ''The Price is Right Salutes'' special in 2002 was a lead-in for the Daytime Emmy Awards, which were also being hosted by Bob Barker. [[TheStinger During the credits]], Barker is faced with the predicament of having to quickly travel from Los Angeles to New York City. But who's young enough to drive from coast to coast in 20 seconds? It's Creator/DickClark!
* 2003: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEXXES5v59o A contestant named Michael]] is arguably the most GenreSavvy player to ever appear on the show, first earning his $500 bonus for his exact bid of ''$2,148'' for the IUFB, then ''owning'' Buy or Sell, coming $200 shy of winning the maximum cash of $1,900. He's so savvy Bob mentions that he feels useless onstage with him.
* November 10, 2004: Another contestant named Michael proposes to his girlfriend Rosie during the Showcase Showdown. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GirViU1tsDw Not only did she say yes]], but her future husband hit $1 on the Big Wheel ''while he was proposing'' and went on to win the Showcase for $23,750 total. As Bob put it, "[[RealityIsUnrealistic If we did this in a movie, people would scoff!]]"
* January 12, 2005: A big day for a lady named Keesha. Not only did she run the table on One Away for a Pontiac Sunfire, but upon making it to the Showcase, she was faced with a passed-up Chrysler Sebring ''and'' 300M, the rare two-car Showcase. Now since this is the Awesome page, one can figure out the outcome. However, to truly cement the awesome here, Keesha's bid? $51,231. ARP? $51,''481'', which added the other Showcase to her take for a total of $90,153.
* September 18, 2006: Most of the Season 35 premiere, culminating in a Double Showcase Win for the seventh-highest daytime win of $147,517.
* April 17, 2007: A contestant playing Half Off [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YbR2iX0ySA picked a box]] as Bob explained the rules of the game. The same box remained at the end of the game, was chosen, and ''contained the $10,000''.
* June 15, 2007: Bookmarking his final season, Bob Barker ended his run on ''Price'' by awarding his final Showcase winner, Denise Leveque a total of $140,235, including a $45,675 Chevrolet Corvette in Lucky Seven, $1,000 in the Showcase Showdown, and a $90,761 Showcase, which included a Mediterranean cruise, and a Cadillac convertible, the tenth-highest total in daytime ''Price'' history.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Dennis James (Nighttime, 1972-77)]]
* Taped September 18, 1972: The eighth episode had what is so far the only known Showcase tie in ''Price'' history; the rules for this situation state that each player wins their own Showcase. [[note]]For the record: if a tie falls within the Double Showcase range, both players win both Showcases. If this happens on a Million-Dollar Spectacular with the 2008 format, each player also gets the Million.[[/note]]
* In general, the insane budget this show had for its time. While it started slightly bigger than the daytime version (a Barker winner got around $3,000-$4,000, while a James winner got around $5,000-$6,000), by the end of its first season, the show's budget settled into what we remember it as. It wasn't uncommon to have two cars offered in a game, or even on one occasion, ''an actual airplane'' (that was won in a showcase BTW, a total of $24,285). The main attraction was the Showcases, which went as high as ''nearly $23,000'', an insane total for early 70's game shows. For the record, the biggest total given away was $35,142, during the final season.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Tom Kennedy (Nighttime, 1985-86)]]
* A contestant playing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0acCbZO8qA Punch-A-Bunch]] found a Second Chance slip worth $50...and then a ''$10,000'' slip, the first time in the game's history that somebody won more than the stated top prize.
* A contestant playing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GVoW-7VuxQ Switcheroo]] was the first to win everything on the first try. Note that the prop doesn't have its clock yet, and it would be at least another four years before it did.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Doug Davidson (Nighttime, 1994-95)]]
Despite this version getting a scant 80 episodes (and being canceled at midseason), several amazing things happened.

* In general, any perfect bid in The Price WAS Right (this version's standard Showcase Showdown).
* September 22/November 1, 1994: Two players manage to run the table in Ten Chances.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Drew Carey (2007-Present)]]
* October 15, 2007: What better way to start Drew's foray into Price than with a perfect show on the very first episode of Season 36?
* October 18, 2007: 3 days later... another perfect show, making 2 perfect shows in the same week!
* October 22, 2007: Triple Play gets its first win in the Carey era.
* November 16, 2007: Triple Play gets its second winner. And then we wait a long time for the next winner...
* February 22 and March 7, 2008 ($1,000,000 Spectacular): [=DSWs=] on Drew's first and third taped Million Dollar Spectaculars, leading to respective totals of $1,153,908 (biggest overall total in franchise history) and $1,127,062.
* April 4, 2008 ($1,000,000 Spectacular): Clock Game was played with a million-dollar bonus where, while winning the game within the normal 30 seconds still won the standard primetime $5,000 bonus, if the contestant guessed both prices within 10 seconds (which had happened something like twice in the previous 36 years), they would win an additional million bucks. Taking full advantage of the show's [[SubvertedTrope subversion]] of AndNinetyNineCents, the contestant nailed the first prize on her first try, got the second in eight seconds, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJw1rlmJ81U won the million.]] She would then go on to win the Showcase, for a final total of $1,089,017.
* July 4, 2008: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cksq5FW7jC0 A perfect Check-Out.]]
-->'''Drew:''' And she's from ''Canada''! And she got it right on the ''nose''!
* November 3, 2008: Let's sum up [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icyoYJo4guU Taylor's day]]...
** He came on ''Price'' for his 19th birthday and plays Lucky $even for a Ford Mustang, losing all but $1 on the first two guesses. Drew promises to "go berserk" if he manages to pull it off. He does, even with numbers designed to screw up people who guess middling digits.
** He then spins $1 twice on the Big Wheel for another $26,000.
** ''Then'' his opponent in the Showcase overbids by less than $500, giving him ''another'' car (a Dodge Charger this time) and $103 shy of $80,000 in total winnings. Not a bad birthday.
** During that same episode, contestant Dorothy from the second episode (actually the fourth show taped), the first person to ever play Grocery Game, came back. She didn't play Grocery Game again, though.
* December 16, 2008: A contestant named Terry Kniess did what no other contestant had done for about 35 years -- make a perfect bid in the Showcase. The producers were convinced that Terry had cheated somehow and ordered a 20-minute "stopdown" to investigate. Turned out that Terry's helper, a Golden-Road.net guy named Ted who had been a contestant in 1992, was just a devoted watcher who had memorized the prices of most of the items that turned up in the Showcases -- although Kniess later said that '''he''' watched the show regularly, and in fact ''wrote a book'' about his perfect bid. Drew, however, had a feeling that something was up and made no attempt to hide his suspicion.
** Drew noted afterward that it was the first time a contestant had made a perfect Showcase bid "since 1972 or '73", which was less epic than it could have been due to the lack of a Double Showcase Rule. Fan research has since narrowed this down to between January 16, 1973, and April 1974.
** [[http://www.esquire.com/features/impossible/price-is-right-perfect-bid-0810 This]] Esquire article refers to that event as "TV's SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome". Website/TVTropes is not mentioned by name, but really, where else would they have come up with that headline?
* April 27, 2009: A contestant playing One Away made all five numbers [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q_Hki9Yxs6w the same color]] (red, signifying lower than the "base" digit). Despite this setup's extremely low likelihood of having ever been the winning solution '''in the game's history''', it was the price!
* May 28, 2009: Contestant Christine not only [[https://youtu.be/UHdjQkkYC-E nails a perfect bid on a $1,999 fireplace]], [[FlawlessVictory she also runs the table on Pocket Change]]. This after telling Drew her current car had just broken down in a massive snowstorm and needed a new transmission.
* January 4, 2010: In 1978, a contestant, named Cynthia, played Any Number and won only the piggy bank. 31 years later, she (now older, larger, and walking with a cane) played Any Number ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xm0cKQPWOI again]]'' and won the car. During her Showcase Showdown, clips of her first playing were shown.[[labelnote:Note For Collectors]]The 1978 clip shows the yellow tiles in front of Contestant's Row. While this may seem to be an insignificant detail, their presence rules out anything from June 5 (by which point those tiles had been removed) onward. This effectively means that Creator/{{GSN}} may have shown Cynthia's original appearance...unless it was on the nighttime show, in which case it's unlikely to show up again.[[/labelnote]]
* March 4, 2010: A contestant playing Let 'Em Roll [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cC3Xb63vvtE gets all five cars on the first roll!]]
* April 16, 2010: A contestant wins Half Off [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JD2epRHCB-8 with no boxes removed from play.]]
* April 21, 2010: A contestant won a restored 1964 Bentley (an extremely expensive British line of cars) playing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUxZMhwjFQw Hole In One.]] The clincher? He made a putt from the first line (the farthest from the hole) and narrowly missed on his first try.
* May 18, 2010: ''Another'' contestant playing Let 'Em Roll [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fq40B_S8QKU#t=2m56s gets all five cars on the first roll!]]
* September 20, 2010: A contestant playing Stack the Deck only gets one digit in the price of the car given to her (the third one) and must pick out every other digit correctly out of six possible numbers. The odds against this are huge and it has never been done before in the game's history, but [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZ-oNk6DZM0 she manages to get the price correct and win.]] (The facial expression on the model (Rachel)'s face is priceless.)
* October 15, 2010: For the very first time, a contestant [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_LbTk_zqE0 wins ALL THREE prizes in Rat Race]].
* November 9, 2010: A contestant playing Clock Game wins both prizes in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmBNMueyyvM a record 3.5 seconds.]]
* November 16, 2010: A contestant playing Any Number [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGchzXA3raY runs the table]]... and '''in order'''.
* December 24, 2010: The first time since Bob's retirement that a contestant won over $100,000 on The Price is Right, a DSW paying out $101,244.
* December 30, 2010: The Best of 2010 show had another playing of Rat Race where the contestant [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcJLwPaMtzI&t=2087s won all three prizes]], including a 1955 Ford Thunderbird. Also, someone won a $60,000+ showcase featuring a BMW convertible thanks to a smart $1 bid, giving the winner $73,450 in total.
* January 31, 2011: A contestant playing Dice Game rolls three sixes and a one, automatically winning the car.
* February 4, 2011: After being led to believe she had won the first One-Bid due to an error from Drew (which he apologized for after the actual winner came up), she eventually got on stage and won $26,000 on the Big Wheel!
* February 18, 2011: The first win in one of the Big Four games (Golden Road, Three Strikes, Triple Play, Pay The Rent) in over three seasons came on a full count in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbQN1iG9jZ4 Three Strikes]] for a Cadillac.
* April 7, 2011: A contestant playing Cover Up gets four of the five digits correct, leaving a choice between $1'''2''',758 or $1'''9''',758. The contestant picks 9 and wins.
* April 22, 2011: The immediate next playing of 3 Strikes is for an electric car...[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4cLudVZY3U and this one crawled back from two Strikes to a full-count win!]]
* June 3, 2011: Three consecutive playings of 3 Strikes, ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgEGvW0aPVU all won on a full count]]''.
* June 16, 2011: A contestant plays Bonkers and gets it right ''on the first guess''.
* 2011-12: Season 40's '''twelve''' Double Showcase Wins, which topped the previous seasons ''ten'', two records set ''at least'' the past '''decade''' (from September 2000 onward, the DSW record for one season was eight).
* September 19, 2011: Season 40 opened with a perfect bid right off the bat, followed by Race Game for '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q43y6hEzmwc four cars]]'''. She won them all ''on the first try''.
* September 28, 2011: The ceremonial 7,500th show ''[[ShownTheirWork actually was]]'' #7,500.
* January 25, 2011: A contestant in the Showcase makes a bid of $25,000 but then changes her mind and asks to change her guess to $22,500. Her first guess was locked in already and she was told she couldn't change it. When it came to revealing the actual price, she got a win by being ''$41'' closer than her opponent's bid was--meaning, had she been allowed to change it, she would have lost.
* March 19, 2012: A contestant is the 3rd generation in her family to have appeared on ''Price'', and has a lot to live up to; her grandmother won her Showcase, and her mother won her pricing game. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouGCmzpbBY8 She keeps the family legend going]] by winning Pathfinder, notorious for being one of the tougher games on the show to win.
* January 6, 2012: Another six-figure DSW, this one to the tune of $104,346.
* January 13, 2012: One contestant played a session of Ten Chances that was dangerously close to being a DownerEnding. She figured out the first prize within two tries but took six guesses to get the second one (with a few guesses being painful to watch for GenreSavvy viewers). Despite having only two chances left to figure out the car's price, she guesses it correctly ''the very next try''.
* April 20, 2012: A woman playing Check-Out makes some guessing on each product, to which the audience booed and it didn't help that she was acting clueless as she guessed. As the prices for each item were revealed, it was shown that the contestant was right in the ballpark of the actual prices. Drew even made a TakeThat against the audience (jokingly) when it was revealed that the contestant won the game.
* September 4, 2012: Remember Paul Levine, the perfect Bonus Game player from the 1972 premiere? Well, he won his way out of Contestants' Row again for the 40th-Anniversary Special[[note]](the ''entire audience'' on this occasion consisted of past contestants invited back for the show)[[/note]], and happened to play Bonus Game ''again''...and ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqB2tn1PC-o got all four prizes right again!]]'' To make the double-win sweeter, this time the bonus prize was ''a restored 1972 Monte Carlo''! He also got to spin the Showcase Showdown wheel, which didn't exist in 1972, but he did not advance to the Showcase round.
* January 1, 2013: How does the first new episode of ''Price'' to air on New Year's Day since 1962 get any more special? How about Mark getting not just $1 on the Big Wheel, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6SS8JxhuDvs but also getting a DSW]]? His off-by-$23 bid was the closest since the aforementioned perfect bid in this folder.
* March 18, 2013: It's been a while since we've had one of these, so here's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbIwF4bcMjY another 3 Strikes win.]] Also heartwarming in that it was the contestant's (Elizabeth) birthday. And she won her Showcase as well in impressive fashion (only off by $312), for a total of $78,388. [[note]](She was $62 away from a DSW and a total of $101,162.)[[/note]]
* April 19, 2013: ''Three'' perfect bids in Contestant's Row.
* April 24, 2013: Pay the Rent, [[NintendoHard a notoriously-hard game to win for Seasons 39-40]], was [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaYJwLNNbkY finally won]], and the contestant went on to a Showcase win and a total of $124,017. (Unfortunately, the PTR win came about because they were desperate to get a winner, adding more and more solutions as Season 41 progressed...a move made very clear when the game went right back to being NintendoHard.)
* May 29, 2013: A contestant playing Cliff Hangers makes a terrible bid on the 2nd item that puts the mountain climber just two steps away from falling off, which means the contestant's next guess has to have a difference of $2 or less; he gets the last item ''exactly'' right.
* September 27, 2013: To celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of the premiere of Plinko, one of the most popular games on the show, Drew and George declare it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKKzQghRfNg "Plinko Day"]]. ''All six'' of the winning contestants get to play the game, including chances at some prizes not usually offered in a Plinko game.
* October 14, 2013: The second Big Money Week [[note]](a week in which one game gets played for an extravagant prize such as a luxury car, or six-figure cash payoffs)[[/note]] kicked off with a bang, as the contestant not only won $100,000 on 1/2 Off but went on to win $1,000 on the Big Wheel and her Showcase, becoming the ninth-biggest winner in daytime ''Price'' history with $140,236. [[note]](She was $124 away from a DSW and the then record.)[[/note]] Also, we had a perfect Stack the Deck win as well.
* November 5, 2013: A male contestant gets the Showcase within $600; his opponent gets it within ''$266''. Oh, and we had another 3 Strikes winner too.
* November 18, 2013: Check Game's first win in years. The contestant's check and prize add up to $7,999 (only ''$1'' away from perfection).
* November 19, 2013: As this is Dream Car week, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQ8Y-zqxx_o some pricing games are played for luxury cars.]] Jason, a Hole In One contestant, places all six grocery items in the correct order, wins the $500, and then he putts from the closest line and wins a BMW 640i worth just over '''$87,000'''. Better yet, Jason, being a turf management major from Clemson University, was currently ''working on a golf course in South Carolina''. It was a match made in heaven!
* December 30, 2013:
** The yearly "best prizes of the year" episode brought back the Audi R8 from Dream Car Week, with only a game of Gas Money in the way. Sheree Heil (R.I.P.) beat the odds and walked away with a total of $170,345, making her the fourth-biggest winner in daytime ''TPIR'' history.
** Beginning from the same day's playing of Squeeze Play, a streak of 11 consecutive pricing game wins.
* February 21, 2014: A gutsy (not unprecedented -- but extremely rare) move by one of the contestants in the Showcase round -- bidding second, she bids ''$1'' on her showcase, purely on the suspicion that her competitor has overbid on his own. ''She guessed right.''
* June 19, 2014: Nearly six years earlier, Punch-A-Bunch increased its top prize to $25,000. From that point on, nobody found the top prize...[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSEVjowhlbA until now]]. Even more awesome, she got it on her very first punch AND the second hole that she punched had $10,000.
* June 26, 2014: A contestant named James takes it down to the wire in Cover Up for a Chevy Equinox and wins, then he wins $26,000 at the Big Wheel, and THEN he wins his Showcase, which included another car (a Hyundai Elantra) for a total of $81,918. Drew said it best, not a bad haul for a daytime show.
* July 4, 2014: A perfect show complete with the second Pay The Rent win and a total of $101,749.
* October 6, 2014: Zach had pretty bad luck in the numbers department playing Pocket Change, taking the car's price to $1.75. He gets a nickel on the first card, then $0.75 on the 2nd, then $0.25 on the 3rd card, meaning he needs a $0.50 card or the $2 card to win... but since this is on the Awesome page, you know what that last card was, right? [[note]]To be specific, a $0.50 card.[[/note]]
* Two from Dream Car Week in October 2014...
** October 13: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcBTlYXWvb0 This contestant]] Jacob, who was also a veteran, played a near-perfect Lucky $even, getting three out of four numbers exactly, and missing only the 'tens' digit by one. Now, that's awesome in itself, but on this occasion... HE WAS PLAYING FOR A $57,465 PORSCHE CAYENNE!
** October 16: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5jApavS-LM This contestant]] won a Tesla Model S by playing One Away.
* October 20, 2014: When you get a dollar on the wheel, sometimes you want to break out in a dance. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMoByEc7KZg This guy, Eliot, opts to flop on the floor like a fish instead.]] AND HE GOT ANOTHER $25,000 AS WELL! And won the showcase too.
* November 10, 2014: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCF5yY_biDg This contestant, Steven,]] kicked off Big Money Week with a bang by winning $100,000 on Rat Race (for up to $175,000, with first place awarding $100,000, second place $50,000, and third place $25,000), giving him a total of $104,213. Unfortunately, Steven was also part of a double overbid in the showcases.
* November 14, 2014:
** Bracketing wins in Big Money Week, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXjQHN0e4DA a $100,000 win on Grand Game, plus a Showcase win]], leading to the eighth-biggest total of $143,545.
** We also had a wheelchair-bound contestant winning a car in the Range Game (Drew operated the button himself and had the contestant tap him on the arm when he wanted to stop) and perfection in the Bonus Game.
* December 22, 2014: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nM-j9W9SJsw This guy, Luke]], won a Lexus [=IS350C=] convertible in one of the greatest 3 Strikes comebacks ever, despite having two strikes and no numbers up at one point. He started the game with some wrong number placements, and then he got the first 2 strikes early, which ain't a good thing. He was nearly screwed from the start. He then pulls three numbers in a row, and guesses ''all'' of them correctly. He gets his fourth number wrong, but by then, he can fill in the remaining spots, as long as he avoided pulling the last strike... ''and he did''. He later went on to win the Showcase thanks to a smart bid by his girlfriend for a total of $80,061.
* December 23, 2014: On the second day of Christmas Week, Giselle Moody became the first person to win [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71ZzrVX_0Rk Golden Road in the Carey era (daytime)]], winning a $73,900 Mercedes-Benz SUV. She also got a free pass to the Showcase since both her opponents went over (she spun .45 on her only spin), and won it for a total of $108,894.
* January 26, 2015: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee2EqBWqllI The first $20,000 win on Time Is Money (2014).]]
* February 16, 2015: The first day of "U-Decide Week" (where the Twitter followers determined possible choices) had the One Bid winner play Rat Race for up to $100,000 (1st/2nd/3rd awarded $75K/$15K/$10K). [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5pXIV-5t34 Three guesses as to the outcome]] All told, $76,634.
* February 17, 2015: A particularly GenreSavvy (or particularly [[EpicFail stupid]] and lucky) contestant plays Cover Up and gets only one number right per attempt. However, the way she did it[[labelnote:*]](She got the first number right on the first try, the second number on the second try, and the fifth number on the third try)[[/labelnote]] [[ForegoneConclusion ensured her victory]] after the third.
* March 3, 2015: During a playing of Pass the Buck, a lady contestant earned all three picks, and racked up $8,000 in her first two picks. Her husband wanted her to stop right then and there, but she decided to go for the car. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kd0C7IOF3h0 Guess what happened next...]]
* March 5, 2015: A contestant (Hilda) gets a DSW with a difference of only ''$8.'' Final take: $53,666.
* April Fools Day 2015: It might have only been for the first game, but Ol' Dirty Barker, 91 years old, proved that he still had it. In addition, we almost had a perfect show (and even if the contestant who played "Any Number" didn't get the car, they still got a laptop).
* April 2nd, 2015: The production staff displayed both integrity by letting Manuela's blooper air and grace by forgiving her for it. Also, Manuela deserves credit because, according to ''Inside Edition'', that was her first and only such blooper in six years on the show.
* September 21st-25th, 2015: To start Season 44, Price turned back the clock, celebrating each of the five decades with appropriate alterations, among which included:
** Recreations of the light borders used during the appropriate decades.
** George reciting the classic opening spiels used pre-2007.
** Drew using a classic Sony ECM-51, last used by Bob in 1992.
** Drew reciting the speech Bob gave in Episode 1.
** The return of the classic music cues.
** The first half of Monday's episode features the original three of Any Number, Bonus Game, and Double Prices.
** Squeeze Play returning to its classic color scheme, plus being played center stage for the first time since 1982.
** Trip skins are being used for the first time since 2008.
** Now or Then's name being changed back to Now AND Then.
** Plinko bringing back the disco ball reveal used on its very first playing.
** And if that wasn't enough, Tuesday's show crowned the season's only Double Showcase Winner with $70,926, AND Friday's show debuted the new game Vend-O-Price.
* September 28, 2015: A perfect show, complete with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KcuEnsRTzQ an Audi A3 win in Three Strikes]].
* October 1, 2015: On its first playing of the season, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjDmeyTQaQo we get another $100,000 winner on Pay the Rent]], leading to a total of $102,839.
* October 16, 2015: During this Big Money Week, we get [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_0CcbYvPmw a $100,000 win on Let 'em Roll]], plus $5,000 for winning the game, all leading to a total of $107,995.
* November 16, 2015: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8al08IcTaXM The player runs the table on Pathfinder.]]
* December 9, 2015: A contestant playing Cliff Hangers bids $28 on the first prize, and is off by $11. He then bids $16 on the second prize (even though prices in Cliff Hangers are in ascending order), but Hans stops on the very last step. That's not what makes this so awesome - in this scenario, to win, the contestant has to give the exact price of the last prize. Guess what happened next.
* December 21, 2015: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6POVsupjYk Triple Play gets its first win]] '''since 2007'''. The contestant (incidentally named Jesus) made it to the Showcase...[[DownerEnding only to overbid by $195]]. But, you can't feel too bad for the guy that broke an 8-year-long losing streak in that game.
* December 22, 2015: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ge5EDEoeCs 3 Strikes gets its second consecutive win.]] Unlike the Triple Play winner from the day before, the contestant won his showcase, and was only $120 away from a [[WhatCouldHaveBeen double showcase win, and a near-$118,000 payoff]]. But $87,043 including 2 cars is still a great day's work.
* December 30, 2015: Another perfect show, complete with ''another'' perfect playing of Pathfinder. In addition, the contestant who won Check Game and the Showcase had previously appeared on the show in 2004, where she won a car in On the Spot.
* January 11, 2016: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHRRkQJbzR8 Another contestant wins Stack the Deck with only one number (the last number this time) shown.]]
* February 2, 2016: A comeback story. This contestant, Jonathan, makes it up on stage after being over by $2 on a previous IUFB, plays Grand Game, and only wins $100, but manages to make up for it big time by winning $26,000 at the wheel, and then his Showcase with an impressive bid (only off by $429) for a total of $50,838.
* February 15, 2016: To start this Dream Car Week, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P20_ijVDI3Q Spelling Bee is played for a $120,265 Aston Martin.]] Francesca, the contestant, manages to earn the maximum possible five cards and turns down $25,000 (each card was worth $5,000 for this particular playing) to go for the car. Her first card? The "CAR" card (of which there are only two of 30 on the board), which gives her a total of $121,806.
* February 17, 2016: One rule instituted for this Dream Car Week is that instead of a player getting the usual $25,000 for spinning a dollar on their Big Wheel bonus spin, they would get a BMW 320i sedan worth $35,095. On this day, someone did just that and then won the Showcase for a total of $73,141.
* February 19, 2016: Bracketing wins on Dream Car Week, this time being [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qs05QLqUws the second Golden Road win in the daytime Carey era]], and for a Mercedes Benz worth $139,142. The contestant, Adrain, now becomes the sixth-biggest winner in daytime ''Price'' history with $147,621. [[DownerEnding Sadly, he went to the Showcase, only to miss his by over $12,000; a win would've cemented him as the then all-time winner.]]
* April 4, 2016: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eUgj9vxV8s ANOTHER perfect show, including the season's first Gas Money win.]]
* April 18, 2016: Two weeks after the one mentioned above, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYPVUozCouY YET ANOTHER PERFECT SHOW!!!]] This makes four for the season so far, possibly setting a new record.
* May 23, 2016 (Survivor Primetime Special): [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Je7xzXZMk4U The second $25,000 win on Punch-A-Bunch.]]
* September 1, 2016: To celebrate the 11,000th episode of ''The Young and The Restless,'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLwLUS2AAfs the contestant (David) plays the Grand Game for $11,000.]] He wins it and then [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9NW0w699RM wins another $26,000 at the Big Wheel.]] Unfortunately, he came up short in the Showcase, but $37,000 cash + the Segway he won in the One Bid is not a bad day's work on ''Price''. He won MORE than the showcase winner (Jamie) did.
* September 20, 2016: A contestant quickly wins both prizes in the "Clock Game". The Awesome comes from the fact that there were 20 seconds left on the clock.
* September 23, 2016: The show debuts its newest game, Hot Seat, where a contestant can win up to $20,000 by guessing if the prices of five items are higher or lower than the ones shown in 35 seconds. Of course, since this is on the Awesome tab, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8P9066dPlk the first contestant to play the game got $20,000.]]
* October 13, 2016: A contestant beat 3 Strikes in perhaps the hardest-fought battle ever. To give you an idea, she went through ''16'' pulls during the game, and after her first ten, had no numbers on the board and two strikes. Then, she pulls the 4, correctly guesses it's the third digit, and things get better from there. [[https://archive.org/details/tpir-3-strikes-cadillac-2016 It has to be seen to be believed.]] Her reward? The most expensive car ever won in the game so far: a $63,415 Cadillac CT-6.
* October 17, 2016: The Showcase Showdown makes history as it ends in a three-way tie. That would be awesome in and of itself, given how unlikely an occurrence that is, but what puts it firmly into the history books is the fact that it was for ''$1''.
* October 24, 2016: A strong start to Big Money Week with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGQzbEFhfCo a $101,000 win on 1/2 Off]] and a total of $105,014.
* October 28, 2016: Not to be outdone, the grand finale of Big Money Week, which was historic in that every game was played for cash[[note]](Punch-a-Bunch with a top prize of $50K, Vend-O-Price for $10K, Grand Game for $20K, Secret X for $15K, and Pick-A-Pair for $20K)[[/note]], featured Cliff Hangers being played with slightly modified rules for up to $250,000; for every dollar that she is off in guessing the price of the 3 items (i.e. every step the Guy takes on the mountain), the grand prize decreases by $10,000. The contestant managed to become the second-biggest winner in daytime Price history by winning $210,000. Just a few minutes later, she adds an extra $1,000 to it in the Showcase Showdown. The bad news? The bonus spin was also a tiebreaker, and she lost. She ended her historic run with a total of ''$213,876''. And more bad news, the contestants who ''did'' make it to the Showcase, [[MoodWhiplash spoiled the party]] with a [[DownerEnding double overbid.]]
* November 2, 2016: We not only got our first Double Showcase Win of the season, but this came with the rare ''3''-car win, with a total of $73,713.
* December 22, 2016: A family wins Triple Play. It's the 4th time that it's been won in the Carey era.
* December 30, 2016: For the "Best of 2016" special, the $100,000 Hole in One from Big Money Week (made harder by adding a spinning windmill) was brought back. We need not ask how the second putt went, we need only give [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWoQ9xV7ulY a total of $102,164.]] Sadly, that was the only highlight as it ended in a double overbid, which included a semi-painful $429 overbid by the top winner.
* March 23, 2017: The first contestant on stage, Jay, wears a shirt reading "Born to Play Plinko". Drew says that he doesn't think they'll be playing it so early, but they have other great stuff for him. But George then said this was the only time where he loved it when Drew was wrong! Jay goes nuts, and Drew notes that no one ever wears a Plinko shirt and plays it... until now. He won $11,500 in Plinko and would go on to win an Audi in the Showcase, for $53,033 total.
* March 30, 2017: 42 years after the "Greatest Showcase War", it happens again: a Showcase winner is determined by a margin of '''$1.''' But unlike last time, the contestant who won didn't win both showcases.
* April 18, 2017: In a major subversion of [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes what usually happens]] with such immaturity, a contestant named Daniel brings out unusual bids of $111 and the obligatory [[NumberOfTheBeast $666]] (which led Drew to do a demonic voice before revealing the actual retail price) and [[TheStoner $420]]. However, the $420 bid actually '''wins''', and he went on to win a car on Card Game (the fact that he drew a $3,000 range card probably helped too), then win the Showcase Showdown with a dollar and $10,000 on the bonus spin.
* April 21, 2017: The "Baby Shower" edition (featuring expecting couples) is capped off by the season's fourth Double Showcase Win. But what makes this DSW special? The winners were only off by $8, which got them $77,062 total.
* May 15, 2017: To open up Dream Car Week, every pricing game offered a brand-new car. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdz8vuw_LQo Four cars were won, including all three in the first half!]]
* May 18, 2017: Continuing Dream Car Week, Danielle Byers-Anderson plays Pass the Buck for a Maserati Ghibli worth $72,850, plus increased dollar amounts on the board ($10K, $15K, and $20K, to be exact). She earned all three choices, but she only needed one.
* May 19, 2017: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBmf1oHUKkg In the finale to Dream Car Week]], Christine Overton plays Punch-a-Bunch for a $34,295 BMW 320i sedan[[note]](the game was also played with a slightly modified setup, as two of the $100 slips are replaced by CAR slips)[[/note]]. She earns all four punches and on her first punch gets $5,000... and just like Bryan from over 20 years earlier, she gives it back. Her second punch was a measly $100, but her third punch...
* June 22, 2017: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2kjlUunKw0 A contestant in Pocket Change]] has bad luck with the numbers, sending the car's price to $1.75. He makes up for it in the envelope department, though. The first card is $0.50. Second card... ''$2.'' And he also had a quarter and a dime for a total of $3.10. He could've played that game as badly as possible (as the max possible selling price for the car is $2.75) and still would have won.
* September 22, 2017: One for the ages. A perfect show to wrap up premiere week would have been impressive by itself, but the show reached legendary status during the second Showcase Showdown. Because it's the 10th anniversary of Drew Carey's debut as host, spinning a dollar on the wheel during the week wins the contestant $10,000 instead of the usual $1,000. No one gets a dollar in the first nine showdowns of the week, but all three contestants (Charlotte, Wilbert, and Zachary) do it in No. 10. Then, for the first time since 10/6/98, two of them spin a dollar on their bonus spins, each winning $25,000 for a total of $35,000, while sadly the third came just short of landing on the nickel, which would have given him an additional $10,000. A total of $80,000 is given away during the segment, surpassing the normal maximum of $78,000 (only gettable if all 3 players spin a dollar and then get a dollar in each of their bonus spins). If it's not the best episode of the Carey era, it's definitely in the top three. When the second $25,000 is won, Drew collapses into unstoppable laughter because he can't believe what he's seeing and even the contestants enjoy a HappyDance.
* October 31, 2017: One lucky hero vanquished the evil [[LosingHorns Dr. Trombones]] in this Halloween Superheroes episode by winning $25,000 on Punch A Bunch. Also, that win was one of five out of six that day, the only loss being in One Wrong Price.
* December 29, 2017: Bullseye's redux set is unveiled and it is a vast improvement over the original, with actual magnetic darts to use instead of little button markers, really capturing the aesthetic as the game should have. It's also got a lot of digital monitors and a sleeker design to remove the clutter and setup of pulling tags.
* January 26th & 29th, 2018: Two consecutive shows (Friday and Monday) see Double Showcase Wins #2 & #3 with differences in the $100 range, and both winners get two cars to boot! The second win is also credible for saving a show where nobody won anything except $11,000 from Plinko.
* February 23, 2018:
** On the finale of a bummer Big Money Week where the biggest giveaway each day was left in vain, Friday's show brought in the best for last and saved it all. Jody Jarmuzek blazes an astonishing trail to become the third-biggest winner on the daytime run by winning Pay the Rent with the top prize doubled. Unfortunately, Jody bows out at the wheel, but not before picking up ''$204,145.''
** If that wasn't enough, the main feature of this episode was that whoever won a game also got a check for the value of the prize. While we only had three winners [[note]]Side by Side for a $7,455 trip to Bejing, That's Too Much for a $23,020 Fiat 500 C, and the aforementioned Pay The Rent[[/note]], those wins, plus the One-Bid prizes, $24,000 on the wheel (all the bonuses were doubled), and the Showcase added up to ''Price'' breaking its daytime record for the most ever given away in one show, $340,550[[AndNinetyNineCents .23]].
* March 21, 2018: The tweens of the "Tween" episode of "Youth Week" did something impressive -- a perfect show!
* March 22, 2018: A 16-year-old girl runs the table on "One Away" on the "Sweet 16" episode of "Youth Week".
* April 30, 2018: This is a tale of redemption. Contestant Jared first appeared on the 3/6/95 episode, winning a personal computer and $600 on Plinko before bowing out at the wheel. Flash forward to now, and he not only makes it to the Showcase, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpAtXNNkC_Y but he becomes the season's seventh Double Showcase Winner]] for a total of $52,931. And it also pretty much saved a winless show.
* May 11, 2018: Yet another perfect show for Mother's Day, including a More or Less win.
* May 25, 2018: A contestant wins Card Game by a margin of only ''$5.'' (The guess was $19,800, with a $2,000 range ($19,800-$21,800), and the actual retail price of the car was $21,''795.'') [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JB9fu9MFRMU Talk about a close call!]]
* September 17, 2018: Season 47 starts with a bang with a rare Pay the Rent win and a total of $102,479.
* September 18, 2018: Two memorable contestants for the price of one episode:
** Joseph, the first contestant to win his way up on stage, wears what Drew calls "the most complicated Plinko shirt," right down to being able to drop a chip onto the game board. Guess what game he gets to play? He wins $21,000 and eventually the Showcase for $46,320 total.
** Kenneth, a World War II veteran in amazing shape for his age, wins Let 'Em Roll with two rolls, the only ones he had. He heads over to his new car and shows he can still get down with a HappyDance.
* October 8-12, 2018: This season's Big Money Week was overall a success, but two standout moments involved six-figure paydays.
** Tuesday: Hannah, after wisely bailing out with $10,000 on $100,000 Hot Seat, became the only player to get a double dollar on the Big Wheel the whole week for $52,000, then had an impressive Showcase win (she missed hers by $843) for a total of $105,662.
** Thursday: Christopher won $51,000 on 1/2 Off, and then won his Showcase for a total of $101,604.
* November 7, 2018: Deaf contestant Carlos passes a game of Gas Money with flying colors and wins a new car and $10,000.
* November 19, 2018: A contestant who missed out on a truck during her first appearance on the show 20 years earlier runs the table on Any Number.
* May 31, 2019: The final day of Dream Car Week featured what may be the first time someone ran the table on Lucky $even, winning a $24,635 2019 Nissan Frontier King Cab.
* July 4, 2019: A contestant wins a truck in Cover Up, wins $11,000 at the Big Wheel, and then the Showcase for $77,044 total.
* September 23, 2019 (Season 48 Premiere): In the Showcase round, Cathy, who previously lost on Lucky $even, was originally going to bid $25,000 on her showcase but changed it to $24,866 at the last second. What was the actual retail price? ''$24,990,'' meaning if she had stayed with her original bid, it would've been a painful double overbid to start the season (since the top winner, Nancy, overbid on her showcase), as she would have been over by only $10. Instead, she gets the pleasure of being the first Double Showcase Winner of the season with a difference of $124, giving her a total of $52,443. Call it a stroke of luck, or good instincts, if you will! This is also the first time since season 35 that the very first aired episode of the season ends with a double showcase win. Also, the first player who won a game got a Tesla as a bonus (as for the whole week, the first player to win a pricing game, got a bonus prize).
* October 10, 2019: Show 9,000 featured a case of perseverance. Contestant Rosendo Alvarez was originally on the show on October 26, 1994, having lost Spelling Bee and then overbidding on the Showcase. Despite at the time never being allowed on as a contestant again, he continued to attend tapings and show 9,000 became a record-breaking ''180th'' taping. If that wasn't awesome enough, he made up for his last appearance by winning a Mazda in Push Over (plus a $9,000 cash bonus), for a total of $35,560. A loyal friend and true indeed.
* October 14, 2019: Big Money Week starts strong. VERY strong. Contestant Michael Stouber has a shirt that says "Plinko is my cardio" and lo and behold, plays Plinko. On top of that, it's that day's big money game, so it's played for a top prize of $1 million, with the center slot worth $200,000[[note]]The other amounts were raised to $500, $1,000, and $2,500[[/note]]. It's been tried before, first for $500,000 with a $100,000 center slot in 2013, and from then on it upgraded to $1 million, with the $200,000 center slot, but we didn't have much success in nailing the center slot... until now. ''His very first chip lands in the center,'' and he walks away from the game with $202,000. Unlike the two other $200,000+ winners before him, he not only manages to get to the Showcase but also wins it and a progressive jackpot equaling the cash value of the other prizes won that day, for a total of a whopping ''$262,743!'' [[note]]And to this day, that's still the biggest total by one contestant for a single day on not just daytime ''Price,'' but for all of the daytime game shows.[[/note]]
* December 24, 2019: Anne & Owen become the 5th winners of Triple Play in the Carey Era.
* December 31, 2019: The Best of 2019 show brings back $100,000 Let 'Em Roll from Big Money Week. There is of course only one reason why that's mentioned on this page, but to add to the awesome, this was also followed by a Showcase win and a total of $134,234.
* February 20, 2020: From Dream Car Week, [[https://youtu.be/Z64PazZReA4 Monique wins a Lincoln Navigator in 5 Price Tags.]] Not only that, she also got a dollar on the wheel and then won another car in the Showcase for a total of $109,568.
* March 25, 2020: A contestant (Brittany) wins both showcases with a difference of ''$6'' for a total of $61,002. It's the closest Showcase difference ever in the Carey era, aside from the exact bid back in November of 2008.
* April 6, 2020: A show featuring five wins, plus a $5,000 bailout in Pay the Rent, includes a perfect playing of Money Game.
* December 22, 2020 (Daytime): Roberto becomes the 6th $100,000 winner in Pay the Rent.
* December 22, 2020 (Primetime): A family of 3 became the 6th winner of Triple Play in the Carey Era.
* December 24, 2020: This contestant (Anne) wins a $78,132 Porsche 718 Boxster in Golden Road. [[note]]It's also the first time it's been won with the new 2020 set.[[/note]] Sadly, there was a double overbid in the Showcase round.
* January 18, 2021: This contestant (Erik) wins a $46,120 Range Rover in 3 Strikes, breaking an over 4-year-long losing streak in that game. [[note]]It's also the first time the game's been won with the 2018 set.[[/note]]
* February 2, 2021: A perfect playing of Pocket Change. This occurrence is rare enough that it's the first time Drew saw this happen in his entire run (even though it first happened back in 2009).
* February 15, 2021: Not even COVID-19 could keep Price from another Big Money Week, and this one started with a bang: a contestant winning $75,000 on Rat Race ($175,000 top prize), followed by the return of the progressive jackpot from the previous BMW (and won for $22,790), equals $135,449.69.
* February 23, 2021: A perfect playing of Pathfinder.
* March 4, 2021: A perfect show, including a win in the notoriously hard Stack the Deck.
* April 5, 2021: In the Showcases, the runner-up (Monique, who won $11,000 on the wheel) was off by $301. The top winner (Jack, who also won $11,000 cash ($10,000 on Hot Seat + $1,000 on the wheel) before this)? OFF BY $133 for a Double Showcase Win, giving him $58,958 in total. And those are the two closest bids with a double showcase winner in the Carey era since the $116-$290 result years ago.
* June 24, 2021: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DC5wiSGA3wo The first $25,000 win on Punch A Bunch in over 3 years.]] It also saved the show from being winless. Also, Brian spun a dollar on the wheel! Sadly, it ended in a double overbid, because of El Cheapo showcases.
* June 28, 2021: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-p_fOH6d39I Temptation gets its first win since October 28, 2015.]]
* September 13, 2021: The show's milestone 50th season premieres. It's the longest-running game show for a reason, and they did something big for the premiere week. Every day this week, one game was played for a top prize of ''$1 MILLION.'' It was like taking the $1,000,000 Spectaculars and putting them into the daytime ''Price.'' Sadly, the week was a bust, with only one person winning anything decent off of a million-dollar game, Robert on Monday wisely bailing out with the normal top prize of $100,000 on Pay the Rent (all amounts added a zero).
* September 17, 2021: One of 2 new games for the 50th season, To The Penny, is played for the first time. It's essentially an updated Penny Ante, except it's played for cash, up to $25,000.[[note]]You have 5 pennies, and you have to correctly guess the price of 5 grocery items. The first item has 2 prices, and then every new item has one additional price added. So, there are 3 prices for the 2nd item, 4 for the 3rd, 5 for the 4th, and 6 for the 5th and final one. If you want to make it easier, you can use a penny to remove an incorrect price, up to using enough pennies to ensure you get the right price. If you make a mistake, you have to use 2 pennies to try again. If you get something wrong with less than 2 pennies left, you lose everything. So, you're allowed to bail out with the money you have at any time. The money starts at $1,500, doubles for the next three, then increases to $25,000.[[/note]] And since this is on the Awesome page... yep. He got the first 4 grocery item prices right and didn't use any of his 5 pennies, letting him use all 5 on the final one for an automatic win.
* September 30, 2021: The 50th Anniversary primetime special. 2 hours of greatness. Bloopers, never before seen. Moments that matter. And to top it all off, we were one correct choice away on Golden Road (for a $97,140 Porsche) from a perfect show.
* October 15, 2021: Let's sum up [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIEj5uQ0GsM Ralph Valencia's]] day, shall we...
** He gets up on stage and wins $5,000 in Punch A Bunch.
** He then wins another $11,000 on the Big Wheel.
** AND THEN becomes the golden season's first DSW for a total of $84,726.
* December 24, 2021: A PERFECT SHOW, which includes the 7th $100,000 winner in Pay the Rent, AND a $26,000 win on the Wheel, and that person went on to win their showcase for a total of $67,559. A Christmas miracle, for sure.
* December 29, 2021: Three dollar spins in the second Showcase Showdown, plus one $10,000 spin and one $25,000 spin.
* February 25, 2022 (Dream Car Week): For the very first time, "10 Chances" gets played for a six-digit car. The contestant (Melissa) wins an Audi Quattro on her first chance at it (her sixth chance overall) by correctly unscrambling 915023 as $123,950. She then followed it with a $1 spin (the bonus spin didn't make it all the way around, but she still won the showcase showdown) and a Showcase win, and she ended her day with the fifth-highest daytime total of $159,040.
* May 25, 2022: Another very close Card Game win, this time by a margin of $7. Made even more awesome since it was won with the $1,000 range card. (Price set was $21,000, ARP: $21,''993.'')
* October 10-14, 2022: Let's count all the big moments we had for this year's Dream Car Week...
** Monday: Someone won a $64,735 Porsche Macan in Lucky $even, we had a big comeback victory on Pathfinder, and that person (Iris) went on to win the Showcase (which included a Jaguar), for a total of $106,328.
** Tuesday: A $21,500 win on Plinko, and our first DSW of the season, giving the winner a total of $73,976.
** Wednesday: Someone gets the "Master Key" on Master Key and wins an Alfa Romeo.
** Thursday: Someone wins a $53,595 Infiniti QX50 + $10,000 on Gas Money.
** Friday: Someone sweeps 1/2 Off and wins a $50,000+ Range Rover and $1,000 for getting all 3 pairs of items correct, Pocket Change was won for a $43,672 Volkswagen Atlas, and another big showcase, which included a Lincoln Nautilus, for a total of $70,037. Talk about finishing Dream Car Week with a bang!
* October 26, 2022: The last contestant to make it up on stage that day, Simon, wins a car on Cover Up, then wins $26,000 on the Wheel, and THEN the Showcase for a total of $92,932. Talk about cleaning the house!
* The week of December 19-23 (Christmas Week) gave us not one but two big moments...
** Thursday: A double showcase win by a margin of ''$1'', giving the winner, Shannon, a total of $75,943.
** Friday: The Ford family wins a $74,583 Audi S5 in Golden Road, then got a free pass to the showcase after the first 2 families went over (they spun .25), and then won it for a total of $130,077.
* December 26, 2022: Sharif, the last player to make it up on stage, wins Make Your Move for a trip to Seattle, a turntable, and a mirror, then wins $11,000 on the wheel, and then becomes the 3rd contestant this season to win both showcases for a total of $86,871. And all this happened on the day after Christmas. Not bad! Sharif's reaction when he found out he won both showcases is priceless, as he thought he had only won his showcase.
* January 18, 2023 (Primetime, Geniuses): Someone won a Showcase that featured a Tesla! Other than that, no one showed any genius prowess...
* February 1, 2023 (Primetime): The show celebrates all the "superfans" of The Price is Right. Every pricing game had an "unwritten rule" that most superfans would be aware of. All six pricing games were easily won (the first time in primetime as well), including Money Game (for an Alfa Romeo) being won with both the "El Cheapo" and "front and back" tricks, 10 Chances being won in just five guesses (all of which were written down immediately and followed the zero rule), the $20-$30-$40 rule in Cliff Hangers (the winner also got to keep the mountain climber as a souvenir) and Now or Then being won with the first three guesses. In the latter, Drew even asked the contestant to guess the other three items after winning, and he got 2 of the 3 correct.
* February 3, 2023 (Cancer Prevention Special): Thomas Angulo (R.I.P.), runs the table on More or Less, and then becomes the season's 4th double showcase winner, giving him a total of $104,018.
* March 10, 2023: Contestant Brian is the second person in his family to make it on the show, with his father winning a car the previous year during the Veterans Day special. Not only does Brian make it on stage from the same spot in Bidder's Row that his dad was in, but he plays for and ''wins the same car'' his dad did in a game of Pathfinder.
* March 23, 2023: A show that has five out of six games won, plus an $11,000 win in one of the Showcase Showdowns? Could today get any better?! No, because it gets marred by a painful double overbid in the Showcase round, with the top winner being over by $73.
* April 19, 2023: Contestant Tony Harrison plays 10 Chances for a 3-prong smart plug, a Hewlett-Packard desktop computer, and an Aurora Black KIA Forte XS; he pulls an exacta with guesses of $30, $570, and $21,530 respectively (the first exacta on 10 Chances since May 5, 2000, with Bob Barker and the first-ever with Drew Carey), and even better, he was on in 1997 and had won $5,100 in Plinko. He also ran the now-defunct fansite [[https://web.archive.org/web/20080128162300/http://www.tpir.tv/ TPIR.tv]].
* May 5, 2023: Contestant Jacqueline runs the table on Dice Game for a 2023 Volkswagen Tiguan SE; she rolls sixes on the first two rolls and ones on the last two for a $33,126 car.
* May 29, 2023: Natalie had a painful loss in Cliff Hangers, where, on the last item with $8 to spare, she said $50, and the mountain climber went over the mountain. The actual price of that item was $41. She missed it by $9, a dollar too many. But she makes up for it in a big way in the Showcase round. Her bid was $31,750. Actual retail price... $31,900! She becomes the last Double Showcase Winner of the season, and in Studio 33 with a $150 difference on her showcase, giving her a total of $72,517.
* June 26, 2023 (Last Show at Studio 33): The last 3 games ever played in this studio were the first 3 games ever played on ''Price'', Double Prices, Bonus Game, and Any Number. The day belonged to Justin, who won Bonus Game for a trip to Australia, then got $1 on the Big Wheel, and then won his showcase, for a total of $52,050. It is not a bad show to close this chapter of TPiR history.
* July 3, 2023 (4th of July Primetime Special, Season 51 finale): To start, someone won a car in Cliff Hangers, but the night belonged to Daelyn, where he won $20,000 with just 3 chips on Plinko, and then his showcase (a barbecue island, a trip to New York City, and a Ford Bronco Sport), giving him a total of $75,634.
* September 25, 2023 (Season 52 Premiere): What better way to start a new season, in a new studio, than with a Golden Road win, for a $62,875 BMW i4 Gran Coupe?
* September 27, 2023: Keri, one of the first players to come on down today, goes on a big run. First, she wins $10,000 in Grand Game, then becomes the first person this season to spin a double dollar on the big wheel for $26,000, and then she wins her showcase impressively, only missing it by $987, giving her a total of $67,278. Also, Keri's pricing game win was one of five out of six that day, the only loss being in Cover Up.
* November 22, 2023 (Thanksgiving Special): THE FIRST PERFECT SHOW AT HAVEN STUDIOS! Also, it's the first perfect show in daytime play since Christmas Eve 2021.
* December 19, 2023 (Daytime): Highlights include flawless victories in 1/2 Off (for $50,000 + $1,000 for getting all 3 pairs of small items correct) and Bullseye, and the showcase winner was off by $358.
* December 19, 2023 (Primetime, Holiday Heroes): The show starts big with a $50,000 win in Punch a Bunch! Also, for the first time since 2018 in Daytime, someone won Card Game by a margin of $5, AND with the $5,000 range, too (Guess was $28,300, for a range of $28,300-$33,300, and the ARP was $33,295)!
* December 20, 2023: For the first time since season 32... GOLDEN ROAD GETS BACK-TO-BACK WINNERS. This time, the winner won a $75,645 Mercedes E450 Coupe. Other highlights/lowlights were a nice 3 for 3 win in Now or Then, and a painful bailout in Spelling Bee, where the contestant took $4,000 but could've won the car.
* January 3, 2024 (Primetime): Because Haven Studios couldn't fit Pay the Rent, they elected to try something else. Introducing Jackpot January! All through January (and some of February as well), there will be a special ''The Price is Right at Night'' show where contestants can win hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash and prizes. Special gimmicks are added into some of the games as well. And it starts in a big way... WITH A GOLDEN ROAD WIN (something last seen in primetime in 2008), this time for a $115,780 Lincoln Navigator! Combine the 2 consecutive wins in daytime and this primetime win, and that's 3 Golden Road wins in a row! Other highlights include...
** A $25,000 bailout on To The Penny (the top prize was $50,000).
** The master key being chosen on Master Key, winning all 3 prizes, including a Lexus.
** And a Range Game win[[note]]The gimmick here was that a special orange $50 area was added to the regular red $150 area, and if the ARP was within that orange area, the player won a bonus prize. This gimmick was first done in Season 45's Big Money Week; they did win, but they didn't get the bonus prize[[/note]].
* January 10, 2024 (Primetime): History was made when Any Number was played. Normally, the piggy bank is only a few dollars and change, or worse, not even a single dollar. But tonight, the piggy bank became THE MEGA PIGGY BANK. If the player won the piggy bank, the value of it would be multiplied by 10,000. So, not only is the car what you want, but the piggy bank too. Sadly, the player didn't win the car, just the piggy bank which was worth $6.27, giving her $62,700, more than the value of the car, which was over $25,000! Not only that, but she impressively won her showcase, being off by under $1,000, giving her a total of $124,446. Not bad! Also, in that same episode, another contestant won $103,500 in Plinko (for up to $500,000, with a $100,000 center slot) with just 3 chips, and incidentally, his total winnings came out to $110,237, the same amount that Michael Larson won on Press Your Luck back in 1984.
* January 16, 2024: Someone wins the $20,000 top prize on Hot Seat AND someone wins Stack the Deck. Both happened in the same episode. Those were just two of five out of six wins in this show, with Double Prices being the one to ruin the perfect show this time. Sadly, it ended with a double overbid in the Showcase round.
* February 2, 2024 (Primetime): It's worth noting for context that up to that point, Time is Money had been in a ''bad'' slump on the daytime show, where it had been enduring a long streak of players who won no money. On this show, it happens to be played for $200,000 tonight instead of its usual $20,000, and the contestant, Ayana, managed to win the ''full $200,000 on her first try.'' Unfortunately, her run ended in the first showcase showdown because Natosha got $1 on the wheel and she couldn't match it, but not before picking up ''$201,999.'' Natosha would end up winning another $25,000 on the wheel, and then the Showcase for $93,993 total.
* February 7, 2024 (Primetime, Super Bowl 58): The first half had a big win, where Todd won a $118,000+ Hummer in More or Less, and a $1 spin on the Wheel. The second half had two painful moments as Joanna who played Hot Seat (for $200,000) bailed at $50,000 and could've won it all. And worse, for the first time in primetime since a $1,000,000 Spectacular in May of 2004, she was also part of a double overbid in the Showcase round. Still, over $300,000 in cash and prizes were given away tonight, so it was a good show.
* February 21, 2024 (Primetime): Nathaniel (who previously lost the night's big money game, Cliff Hangers for $250,000) redeems himself by winning a $59,547 showcase that included an Audi A4 with a smart $1 bid (the top winner Alison, who had a perfect 6 for 6 win on Now or Then[[note]]for a new living room and house cleaning for 5 years as a bonus prize[[/note]] bid $63,500 on her showcase and was over by more than $14,000), the first time that's happened since May of 2014 in daytime, and a $1,000,000 Spectacular celebrating Bob's 80th birthday back in 2003 in primetime.
* March 13, 2024: A contestant wins all five prizes in Switcheroo for the first time in the Carey era. Also, we had a near-perfect show, with 5 full wins, a nice partial win with a rare $9,000 bailout in Gas Money, and an $11,000 win on the Big Wheel.
* March 14, 2024: Two nice bids in the showcase round. The top winner was off by $725, but the runner-up won with a difference of $410!
* March 15, 2024: Yet another 5/6 day, with a wipeout in Master Key costing us a perfect show, and yet another $11,000 wheel winner.

* One of the things that made the Ian Turpie ''New Price Is Right'' version unique compared to other versions of ''Price'' was that it had a "carry over" (returning) champion, who competed against the highest-scoring player of the day (or the winner of the Big Wheel, depending on the time of the run) in the Showcase Playoff, where the winner of that became the champion and had a chance to win the Showcase. In 1984, Angelo Spitaro (sp?) won the Showcase playoff ''six times'' and ended up winning over $66,000, including '''four''' new Holdens (a Gemini sedan, a Shuttle van, a Camira SJ sedan, and a Camira wagon).

* In 2004, the Aussie version offered a condominium on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland as part of the "Mega Showcase", which was valued at over $500,000. During the Mega Showcase era, there were three winners:
