LUCKY $EVEN
The prize for this game is a car.  At first, Bob doesn't take the contestant anywhere on the stage (he usually gives a dramatic introduction for this particular game), but he will often ask (especially when this game is the last for the day) "Do we have anything left?"  Of course, that was when Lucky $even wasn't always played first.  Then, from between the turntable and big door number one comes a car (usually a mid-priced car, but this game does sometimes have luxury cars too).  Bob Barker and the contestant then walk over to the car, and Lucky $even is shown behind door number 3 (this is the ONLY game that is played behind door number 3 except for Double Prices occasionally).  Bob then gives the contestant seven $1 bills.  If the contestant has at least $1 at the end of the game, Bob will sell the contestant the car for a dollar!  Now with 5-digit cars, the first number is always given, usually a 1 or a 2.  The contestant must then guess the rest of the digits.  If the contestant is right, s/he keeps all $7, but if s/he's wrong, s/he must give Bob the number of dollars that correspond with the difference between the actual number and the guessed number.  For example, if a contestant guesses 5 and the number is 3, the contestant gives Bob $2 (5-3=2).  If the contestant has at least $1 by the time the last digit is revealed, the contestant can buy the car for a dollar!
HOW TO WIN
You're gonna' lose!  Sorry, but you will lose this game if you get it.  No one ever wins.  You won't win it either.  Even I couldn't win this game!  Think it's about time we play this game always for $30,000+ cars?  Well, I'll try to help as well as I can.  Determine what the second digit in the price of the car could be by the kind of car it is (try to avoid guessing 9 or 0).  For the 3rd and 4th digits, 5 is a good guess since it lies between all the numbers (at worst, it could be 1 or 9 and you lose $4, and it'll probably happen too).  Most of the digits used in this game are from 1-9, but 5's seem to be rare.  If you're actually going to attempt to win this game, you'll have to call out numbers other than 5.  Try 3 if you think the number's low, or 7 if you think the number's high.  Also, at least half of the time, the last digit is a 2.  It is 5 every now and then too, but that doesn't happen very often anymore.  So if you have $1 left, guess 2.  If you have $2 left, guess 3 or 4, so you could cover both 2 and 5.  If you have $5 or more left though, you should guess 5 and you'll be guaranteed to win this nightmare!  Also, an important note, DO NOT GUESS 0 FOR ANY DIGIT, INCLUDING THE LAST.  I HAVE NEVER, NEVER, NEVER SEEN A ZERO EVER USED IN THIS GAME FOR ANY DIGIT!!
