Has anyone been a contestant on The Price Is Right? Have any advice?
I'll be on the price is right show on June 19. if anyone has been a contestant on the show, please give me some advice on what i should or shouldn't do in order to get picked as a contestant.

I know they interview people before the show so im just wondering what kind of questions they'll ask. I know I need to be enthusiastic and really upbeat throughout the whole process, but still more advice is wanted. I also have a shirt made. its a bright yellow shirt (to get noticed) and the front says, "my price is right shopping list" and on the back i have a list of Car, Money, Vacation, Boat, RV with check boxes next to them. ...and if i were to be a contestant and win any one of those, ill have Bob Barker check off the box with a marker ill have with me.

so any other ideas/advice???

thanks a lot!

jason

4. thanks,
ill remember that. i pretty much know how to price most of everything. the only prizes i dont know much about are boats. the only thing i know about them, the bigger the boat, the more hp = higher price. but having an idea how much it really costs is hard. so i've been looking at some online and trying to figure out how to price them.

thanks for all the advice ya guys are giving me, i greatly appreciate them! i will let you guys know if i win anything.. :-)

thanks again!

jason

6. My ex-wife was on, actually.
She engaged the interview guy, plus she was a knockout, to be fair. :)

I think they're after "spunky," but I can't be sure. She didn't win the grand prize; we were hosed from the get-go, as we'd been living in a resort town for three years and had no idea what things actually cost. "A pint of milk? Six dollars, Bob!" :D

7. Don't wear a tube top.
I guess with a name like "Jason" you've nothing to worry about. Just don't ever forget the episode with a woman who came screaming and bouncing - :bounce::bounce: - down the aisle, oblivious of the fact that her tube top had slipped down around her waist . . .

:rofl:

I like your shirt idea. Have a blast. Just don't :bounce::bounce:
