| Punch-a-Bunch (or the Punchboard, as it's often called) is played behind the giant pricetag. Janice walks away holding a $10,000 bill with Bob's face on it, and places it on a stand next to the board. Now 4 small prizes are presented, each with the wrong price shown. You must guess whether the correct price is HIGHER or LOWER than the price shown. For each one you get right, you win a punch, and with four small prizes, you can win up to four punches. After the small prize round, you punch as many of the 50 circles as you've won punches. Bob will show you what's in each hole you punched in the order you punched them in. With each hole, Bob will give you a choice as to whether you want to keep the dollar amount that was in that hole, or if you want to give it up in hopes that the dollar amount in the next hole is higher. The game stops when either you quit with an amount that satisfies you, or you get to the last hole, where you automatically win whatever is there. Ten of the holes have $50, ten have $100, ten have $250, ten have $500, five have $1000, three have $5000, and two have $10,000. Also, each of the four smaller amounts has a "second chance" option for one of the ten holes that has that amount, in which you punch out a second hole, and whatever you amount you punch is added to that amount. If it's another second chance, then those two amounts are added to the next hole you punch. Since it's possible to get all four second chances, totalling $900, and then the $10,000, it's actually possible to win $10,900, although they say $10,000 is the most you can win. |
