@@zachhoran I remember the answer to one puzzle was "Ex-Husband". It was a photo of Eggs, the letters "HUS" and then a picture of a Band. I don't remember the other puzzle I solved. I won a washer and dryer, a watch, a cruise, and a car!
I sure am glad they stopped showing the solution of the puzzle to the people watching @ home BEFORE the game starts. It defeats the whole purpose of playing along @ home, if you ask me. What I do is just cover my eyes so I can't see what the solution to the puzzle is.
Early in the run, they would NOT have given it to her, because the buzzer was manually activated at first-at least one contestant was denied the car because of this. By this episode, the buzzer had been redesigned to automatically activate when time ran out. Since she clearly called out “14, 1” before the buzzer, the judges rightly ruled that she won. (Unfortunately, that buzzer-beater earned her a crappy car.)
Maybe two good ones and the rest were usually terrible. Not the best win right there. The Precis was the worst of a bad lot. I know someone who bought a new one and it was one of the worst cars I'd ever seen. Only thing that could have been worse would be a Yugo. I wonder if they had Yugos on the show. I'd be happy to have that Eagle Talon or Toyota Celica though.
