“The Price Is Right” has been on our TV screens for more than 50 years and is STILL setting new records. On Friday’s Mother’s Day-themed episode, a contestant won the largest amount for a single game.
A retired veteran named Vanessa won $240,150 in cash and prizes. (!!!)
That’s $227,500 in cash from the Lion’s Share game, and a luxury trip to Morocco, which is valued at $12,650.
The previous record was set in 2016 with $210,000 from the Cliffhangers game.
