KenKat guess: $272.25. Over by $1.75. Fail,

I claim the moral victory! darn these Price is Right rules! darn you Bob Barker or Drew Carey depending on your generation which, don't take this wrong, but my guess is gonna be Bob Barker for most people here! And yeah, that includes me


With a guess of $272.75 I feel your pain. I considered lowering my guess when I saw there were so few contestants & then got sidetracked.

Well I work 6 days a week now, I guess I got locked into a 6 day week.

I had initially intended to stop it on Sat and a restart on Sun, I guess I did my math incorrectly and didn't iterate my intentions properly, in addition, with the lack of interest, I just wanted to move on and send out my gifts to somebody.

(Is that enough excuses?)
Rest in Peace

I'm with you Dearborn, the others had plenty of time for their guesses.

Plus, I just made the cut haha.

I really hope you don't have a job that involves math in any way.
