Lewis (Danielle, Shannon, Shirley, Alfred, Jo); $575

Dickey (Danielle, Coryn, Michelle, Stephanie, Kristen)

Five sisters take on the champs today. We start with dueling Danielle...

Round 1: something a really bad bank robber might leave behind (6). Danielle L. takes #6, a picture, while Danielle D. gets number one with ID. Fingerprints, the money, and a gun also make the board, while the Lewises try to steal with the getaway car... Not there, the Dickeys get 92. Other answer: glove.

Round 2: something that reminds you of San Francisco (5). Shannon gets #2, the Golden Gate Bridge, whilst Coryn stifles out homosexuals... No surprise, it's not there. Jo gets number one with trolley cars. The Dickeys try to steal with the corner of Haight & Asbury... And the Lewises take the 73! Other answers: Rice-a-Roni, fog, hills.

Double Round: a phrase that uses the words "out of" (full board). Shirley gets #6 with "out of control". Jo gets his second number one with "out of time". Danielle gets "out of money".The Dickeys try to steal with "out of breath"... And the Dickeys have 133! Other answers: Out of your mind, out of sight, out of gas.

Triple Round: a reason kids might not be able to go outside (4). Alfred gets #3, has a cold. Jo gets #2, grounded. Danielle thinks it's too dangerous for #4. The weather sweeps the board and wins the game, 415-92, for the Lewises.

Shannon trades Alfred in for Danielle to play Fast Money. Unfortunately, they only get 96 for $480, a two-day total of $1055.

Jeopardy! by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Host: Alex Trebek

James Washick (professor from Greenville, SC); $20,801

Eric Heaton (software engineer orig. from St. Cloud, MN)

Kate Miller (human resources assistant from Oxnard, CA)

James was a fierce opponent last time. If he continues with that though, he could repeat today. He starts with $200 Snow Business Like Show Business. Kate ties James' $2800 when she finds the Daily Double under $1000 Here Comes the "Sun". She bets $1800 on this: from the Middle English for "apart", this term tends to follow the words ripped or torn. "What is asunder?" Right for $4600!

The rest of the round turns into a pissing contest between James (who ends with $5400) and Kate ($6800). Eric, with $2600, gets to start Double Jeopardy!...

... with $400 Women Athletes. James finds the Daily Double under $1600 Closing the Book. He bets $3000 here: Steinbeck: "And Carlson said, 'Now what the hell ya suppose is eatin' them two guys?'" "What is 'Of Mice and Men'?" Right for $10,800. Last clue is $2000 The Middle Ages... and it belongs to Kate. She gets a shot to add onto her lead going into the final, as she bets $1200 on Sir Henry Percy's nickname. "What is the Giant?" Nope, it was Hotspur. She ends the round with $12,000 to James' $11,200. Eric has $4200.

Final Jeopardy! in "The Technology Sector": if you'd invested $84 for 4 shares of this company at its Mach 13, 1986 IPO, you'd have 1,152 shares and $30,124.80 as of January 1, 2006. Correct response: What is Microsoft?

James.... wrong with IBM. Kate... also wrong with Amgen. But she wagers enough to be left with $9500 to win the game. James leaves with $21,801.

The Price is Right by Travis Schario, GSNN

Air time: 11a ET/10a CT on CBS (markets may vary)
Host: Bob Barker

"March Madness" doesn't have anything on the madness that happens in 7800 every day. Here's what went down today.

Laura Madden, Michelle Papolardo, William De Marza, Jr., and Simon Sorgi took a shot at a Juliana aluminum frame greenhouse, valued at $1388. Simon snagged it with a $1200 bid, and took his place next to Bob at the Big Doors for Switch?. The swag: a Dell XPS desktop computer, marked at $1320 and a Flexsteel Radford recliner, marked at $2243. Simon wanted to switch, and, using a play on his name, Bob insisted that Simon say, "Simon says, Switch." Shane and Lanisha gladly obliged and switched the prices. Did he win? Simon says, Start the day with a winner!

Next, Laura makes her way on stage winning a Clarion NICE in-car navigation/entertainment system, worth $1400. She then took a few punches at $10G's. Missing a stand mixer (marked $120, called higher, $99), she swept thru a $30 pocket backgammon game, a $57 rechargeable toothbrush, and a $50 walnut jewelry box, earning three punches. Her first shot, in hole 14, nets her $500 and a second chance. Her second chance, hole 17, netted her an additional $50. She turned down the $550 to look in hole 39. That held only $50, so she continued to hole 42. After a long stretching routine from Bob (he wanted to be comfortable before he opened the slip), he revealed a win of...$100. For her efforts on the IUFB, she picked up a supply of Super Poli-Grip as well.

To finish off the half, contestant Margie Antar won her way *back* on stage with a Rosenthal Empress crystal stemware set, worth $1680. I say back on stage because, when she was called an act prior, she pranced up on stage and when Bob asked her why those other three in the Row were down there, she said, and I quote, "All the older people have to be on a platform!" Well, she's up on a higher platform now, the Turntable to be specific, to play Cover Up for a Ford Focus ZX3SE. After not knowing initially how to take the tiles out of the higher slots and "cover up" the ones below, she covered up $24,325 with $16,482 and WON WITH HER FIRST TRY!! However, her tenure didn't last long as she lost a Spin-off to Laura, who advanced to the Showcases. Margie did pick up supply of Jelly Belly with her stemware.

The second half kicked off with Daryl Anderson, a USMC about to go to Iraq, bidding exactly for a pair of Yamaha Acoustic Guitars (with a supply of Skin Zinc for Psoriasis) valued at $600. He picked up the $500 stash (as well as a kiss from Shane in an earlier act) to play Check-Out for an Ashley Casa Malino bedroom group, including Royal Duchess from Comfortaire, valued at $7373. The products: Udderly Smooth foot cream (guessed $2.00), Windex Multi-Task Line (guessed $4.00), TRESemme hair spray (guessed $3.00), St. Joseph aspirin pouch (guessed $6.00), and a large size Space Bag (guessed $3.50). His total came to $18.50, keeping mainly in round numbers. Here's how the groceries came out:

Foot Cream = 97¢
Windex = $3.00
Hair spray = $3.99
Aspirin = 99¢
Space Bag = $5.99

Actual total came to $14.94, for a difference of $3.56 and a loss. Hey, at least he got a kiss from Shane.

Another perfect bid came from contestant Maryann Jameson on a $999 Wizard gumball machine. Her game: One Away for a Chevy Malibu LS Sedan. The price was NOT $28,443. Her first guess landed her at $17,534 and only two HONK's. She changed the 7, 5, and 4 to form $19,332. Unfortunately, the price was $17,352. She had to change the last three numbers instead of jumping around like she did.

Finally, Jessica Williams wins her way out of the Row off an Overbid with a Stress Less home gym (complete with Renuzit Airlets air freshener) worth $610. She has to determine whether she's Coming or Going for a Master Spas 6-person Cape Cod spa. It's either $5998 or $8995. She's going with $8995 after asking how many people the spa seated, and won the spa. Unfortunately, she didn't get any further, spinning only 65¢ against Maryann's 80¢.

In the Showcases, the Top Winner: Laura, the Runner-Up: Maryann. On we go.

For the first Showcase, Lanisha, our intrepid aviator is flying around the world reporting on what she sees. First she sees poker chips, which leads to a trip to Vegas. Next, she sees tea, for a trip to London. Finally, she notices chopsticks, for a trip to China. Laura passed it to Maryann, who bid $14,250.

The second Showcase contained a Broyhill Tropical Retreat living room with S&S Mills carpeting, an assortment of Rocky Mountain Sunscreens, and a HoverJet GT hovercraft with trailer. Laura bid $18,525.

Starting with Laura, the ARP of her Showcase: $23,083 for a difference of $4558. Not bad. Maryann's ARP: $17,300 for a difference of $3050. She is our grand winner today with $18,799 in trips and gumballs.

STATS: 3/6; $54,254.

T-MAC NOTE: Is this a record for IUFB product plugs? FOUR different groceries were offered today.
