- One Bid: Four contestants bid on one item and whoever is closest to the actual retail price of the prize (without going over the price) wins that prize and moves to the next competition.
- Pricing Games: One contestant (who won the one bid competition) gets an opportunity to win additional prizes and money by guessing the prices of various retail items. Usually, this competition continues with five other contestants.
- Showcase Showdown: Three contestants spin ‘The Big Wheel’ that contains 20 value sections. Each player is allowed two spins and must beat the leader’s score or land on $1 value.
