Look at this studio filled with glamorous prizes! Fabulous merchandise including:
An $11,000 camper trailer
A $3,700 pair of vases
A $24,000 Cadillac

Today's contestants:

Tom Conway: Student at University of San Diego studying business administration, from Solana Beach, CA

The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $1,000. Try not to hit Bankrupt, or you will lose all your cash, but once you buy a prize, it's yours to keep. Here's our first puzzle!
Perfection! Terrie solves BRINGING HOME THE BACON.
Terrie did good, but can she also bring home this prize from the Wheel? We're adding a trip to the West Indies and stay at Holiday Inn Trinidad (labeled TRIP) worth $3,092.
Terrie solves HOLLYWOOD FLORIDA.
Will someone get another chance? Let's see if we can bring it home with the $5,000 space!
Perfection! Lynn solves DON'T BE A STRANGER.
Still some time, but Pat but give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth... $5,000 a piece! It's anybody's game!
