Best Friends Week (Day 5)
From New York City
From Radio City Music Hall, it's America's Game! Time to wrap up our first round of sleepovers in NYC - with our best friends!
$1,000 is way more than enough to spend at the movies.

Kristin locates THE SOUTH BRONX.
This week's final duos consist of:
Vikki Rella & Kristin Bunger: Friends for 26 years, met in the 1st grade
-Vikki: 8th grade English teacher, married for 3 years (her husband Andrew uploaded this episode)
-Kristin: Expecting, married for 1 year; enjoys travel and spending
Karen Fox & Christine Mondello: Friends for 20 years, met at the hotel they used to work at
-Karen: Married, 1 baby son and 1 baby daughter
-Christine: Substitute teacher; married for 19 years, 3 sons
Si Han Kurt & Chris Edwards: Acquainted for 6 years, friends for 3 years, bonded over carpooling; NYPD officers, work at the police academy
-Kurt: Works in human resources (HR); married, 1 son, 1 daughter
-Chris: Works in information technology (IT), engaged
Pat mistakenly read Kristin's last name as BURGER. :lol: And Kurt goes by his last name.
Playing this game with your buddy is double the fun - and so is winning $2,000.
RHYME TIME

OKEY-DOKEY, Karen - you and Christine have control of the wheel.
The $1,000 gift tag would make a great present for your best friend - it's from Brookstone (labeled SHOPPING). And the featured getaway is a tour of Paris (Collette Vacations + CheapTickets.com, labeled FRANCE) worth $9,000!
Besides the $10000 wedge, its playmate, the big $2500 wedge (courtesy of Febreze) has come to visit.
