Early on, Danette picks up the BedandBreakfast.com gift tag with an H. Later on, she picks up the cruise w/ an L. But after filling in most of this puzzle, she misses on the $2,500 wedge with a G, and that will cost her $10,950 cash and prizes. Two spins after that, Jessica picks up the Wild Card w/ a W. That's followed by a Y but then a baddie in V. Payman picks things up from here...
