Look at these fabulous prizes...

A Husqvarna sewing machine worth $3,595!
A Big Softie lounge suite worth $4,750!
A Mitsubishi Lancer worth $31,167!

It's New Zealand's Favourite Game, Wheel of Fortune!

Today's contestants:
Terry Frisby (returning with $530 in prizes)
Jacqui Gould: Company director in the weight loss business. Her description of awkward is being stuck on a toilet.

David Wilkins: "Fresh from the farm", and involved with personal development courses.

Phillip wonders if he can help Grant, who is a bit of a problem. Grant suggests Phillip do it so that he can actually develop a personality.

The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $500, and here's our first puzzle:

Jacqui has run out of time to score. She will take home an Élysée 24-karat gold and steel ballpoint pen as a consolation prize.

All contestants receive the Wheel of Fortune board game.

Jacqui also explains how she got stuck to a toilet. She managed to get super glued, and they needed to call the fire department. Grant knows she was "flushed with excitement".

BONUS ROUND:

Terry hasn't run out of steam himself, because he has a better chance at one of our major prizes!

Whiteware package ($4,200)
Lounge suite ($4,700)
Ride-on mower ($5,300)
Ski holiday ($7,200)
Mitsubishi Lancer ($31,167)

We add 3,110 to the previous 3,165 for 6,275, which gives Terry four consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...

Big Softie lounge suite (4,750)

This puzzle might bring him better luck.

Bonus Puzzle

His choices of TSRL, and E could also bring him good luck.

PHRASE

He solves TO HAVE THE LAST LAUGH three seconds in to keep the lounge suite! Terry has won $8,354 over his two days, and he'll be playing again!

Terry thinks he will be giving the lounge suite to the office of his radio station. The announcers will be quite comfortable! Or he might keep the lounge suite at home. Only time will tell...
