The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000, and Ryan has the green to begin!
Heather solves SANTA'S WORKSHOP.
Bridget solves LITTLE WOMEN BY LOUISA MAY ALCOTT, and now the secret is out...she has won a 15-day Australian holiday worth $5,500!
Time to be an even bigger Santa if the $3,500 and Jackpot spaces have something to say.
Bridget solves BAZOOKA BUBBLE GUM to keep the climbing gear.
What kind of puzzle was that, just now? It cost us some time, so Pat will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $250 a piece. Ryan starts.

Feeling generous, we have a little present. It's a gift certificate for REI climbing gear (labeled CLIMBING) worth $2,500.
Or maybe you could be a little Santa yourself with help from the $2,500 space and $10,000 prize. Interested?
