The top-dollar value on the Wheel is 750, and here's our first puzzle.
Are we done with scones and tea? Then we'll now look at our BONUS prize, a limited edition Nintendo 64 video game system with Donkey Kong 64.
The top-dollar value is increased to 1,500.
We begin our next round.
It's time for the Cash Car & Stars puzzle! It's a home viewer's chance to win a Proton Satria GTI worth $27,990!
The answer to the last puzzle was ERIN BROCKOVICH. Today's puzzle is:
The top-dollar value is now 2,500!
RRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGG!
She just got that one in, and now Rob will give the Wheel a spin. Consonants are worth 295.
