Hannah's choices for the Bonus Round are Thing, Phrase, and What Are You Doing?
$100,000 Bonus Round:
Hannah has Bridget, Justin, Maya, and Elliott in the audience with her.
Hannah spins the Bonus Wheel, and lands on the G in GAME.
The category is WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
RSTLNE gives us this:
_ _ _ _ _ N _
_ N _ / _ _ _ _ S _ N _
Hannah's BR Picks: G D C A
_ _ C _ _ N _
AND / C _ _ _ S _ NG
It is vital that when PICKING AND CHOOSING your Bonus Round category and letters, you pick and choose wisely. Sadly, Hannah can only get PICKING, and doesn't solve for $37,000.
Since the Bonus Round was not won at all, this week, we have been shut-out for the third time this season.
Despite getting shut-out, we didn't do too badly, winnings wise. Our World Tour contestants took home $193,740 in cash and prizes, this week. Highlights from this week include the $10,000 Mystery Wedge win on Monday, Jovan's Express Run and $30K Main Game win on Tuesday's game, a member of our site appearing on Wednesday's game, and Sally getting over $10K in the Speed-Up Round, without a $5K Final Spin, to boot. We had some nice winning Main Game totals, even though the expensive Prize Puzzle trips made up for a chunk of the winning totals.
Next week will be Girlfriend Getaways Week. This will be our first team week of the season, consisting of female best friend pairs. In seasons past, Girlfriend Getaways has done really well. It was even the highest week in winnings last season. Let's hope that this season's version does really well, too.
