“The Price is Right” Teams with Publishers Clearing House for $20,000-a-Day Giveaway This Week
Once again Publishers Clearing House is teaming with Fremantle Media to give away big money to contestants. All this week Publishers Clearing House will be featured on The Price is Right, and a big $100,000 will be up for grabs. According to host Drew Carey, on each show the first person to win a pricing game will win a bonus of $20,000.
During last year’s promotion, Plinko was played each day. A rolling jackpot for the final chip was added, where the center slot was worth $20,000 and grew by that much each day not won. During the five days $20,000 was awarded to just one contestant. This time they’re essentially guaranteeing the full $100,000 will be given away. Publishers Clearing House recently teamed with Family Feud where a record $160,000 was won through a Big Money Tournament.
I have to admit, I like this “version” a lot better. It’s like “You won a new living room and…oh yeah…you also won $20,000!!!”
Today the woman who won the $20,000 also became a Double Showcase Winner. She won like $75,000 in one day. What a way to kick off the week.
