Cheap, cheap, cheap!


The prizes are so cheap and most are way over priced. Watching today, guy wins a ping pong table and a 42 inch TV. Now the table was heavy duty compared to a regular ping pong table. I'm thinking maybe 1,500 for the table and 500 for the TV. It was 5,500, they could keep it because I wouldn't pay around 1,600 in taxes on it.

Just another example, the contestant can win a grill. The grill is 2,500 which is just ridiculous. Again I don't think its worth the taxes I would have to pay on it. At 30%, that's 750.00 bucks. My stainless steel grill that looked comparable was about 300.00.

Also as others have complained of already in other threads, only 1 person gets to try for big deal now. Another show that is worse is Family Feud. 5 bucks a point, then splitting it with 5 people. They gave that away years ago on the show. Don't think it would break them to do at least 10 now.
