Again, one solution each with the #3 or #4 items in the mailbox. Most expensive Aspercreme was only 29% more than the second-highest priced item. The least expensive was on the second floor in both solutions with the second-most expensive item. Again, tough to win $100,000. She picked 1, 2-5, 3-4, 6 and collected $5,000. Good thing, too, because she would have lost on the second floor. The pain relief patch on the top was the only thing she had right, as it was the most expensive item.

However, he put item #5 in the mailbox, so this doomed him. His solution was 5-13-26-4. He quit after the mailbox with only $1000, but he would have lost had he continued since his 1+3 ($3.78) on the 1st floor couldn't beat his mailbox choice.

Revision as of 21:23, 14 February 2017

This is a list of solutions the contestants chose or (in most cases) should've chosen to win the $100,000. (NOTE: If you want to win $10,000, then put the lowest in the mailbox and don't worry about the attic, but in most cases to win the $100,000 you need one of the higher items in the mailbox). The winning strategy of 4-23-51-6 when there are only a few solutions is noted in later seasons below.

They made it easier with 8 possible solutions and she won $100k even with putting the cheapest in the mailbox (solution #1 below [1-24-35-6] - the preferred large spread solution).

Also, the least expensive and #5 combined on the second floor in all three solutions. Putting the lowest priced item on the second floor wouldn't be easy to do. Tough to win $100k.

Especially hard with only two solutions with the #3 or #4 items in the mailbox. Most expensive Aspercreme was only 29% more than the second-highest priced item. The least expensive was on the second floor in both solutions with the second-most expensive item. Again, tough to win $100,000. She picked 1, 2-5, 3-4, 6 and collected $5,000. Good thing, too, because she would have lost on the second floor. The pain relief patch on the top was the only thing she had right, as it was the most expensive item.

November 18, 2016

For this one, there were three solutions, one each with #2, #3 or #4 items in the mailbox. Most expensive Capzasin was 30% more than the second-highest priced item. The least expensive was on the second floor in all solutions with the second-most expensive item. There were three ways to win $100,000 and the clue was to put the #1 and #5 items together on the 2nd floor so any other lower combo won. He picked 2, 1-3, 4-5, 6 and collected $10,000. Good thing, too, because he would have lost on the attic since the Capzasin arthritis cream in the attic couldn't beat the $6.49+$9.99 sum he put on the 2nd floor.

December 19, 2016

It's becoming a pattern this season. Again, needed #1 and #5 items on the second floor in both solutions with either the #2, #3 or #4 items in the mailbox. He did do better than most, though, in that he didn't have the least expensive in the mailbox, but he put the least expensive item on the first floor instead of the second, so he missed the chance to win $100,000. The most expensive Emetrol nausea relief was 25% more than the second-highest priced item, so still a tough puzzle. He chose 2-13-45-6 and stopped with $10,000. Good thing, too, because he would have lost since the Emetrol nausea relief in the attic couldn't beat the $7.99+$3.19 sum he put on the second floor. 

Items and order: #1 - $0.99 Just Water' #2 - $2.59 Muir Glen Pizza Sauce, #3 - $2.99 Freshley's Cupcakes, #4 - $3.19 Hefty Bags 20ct, #5 - $7.99 Gold Bond Body Lotion, #6 - $9.99 Nausea Relief. Choice of 4-23-51-6 wins as #3 below.

One solution each with either the #2, #3 or #4 items in the mailbox. He didn't put the least expensive item in the mailbox, but on the 1st floor, and this appeared in one of the solutions. However, he put item #5 in the mailbox, so this doomed him. His solution was 5-13-26-4 [$5.49, $3.78, $8.98, $3.99]. He quit after the mailbox with only $1000, but he would have lost had he continued since his 1st floor total couldn't beat his mailbox choice. The most expensive Baby bath was 27% more than the Bisquick, so it was tough puzzle.

One solution each with either the #2, #3, #4 Items in the mailbox. She listened to the crowd and put the least expensive item in the mailbox, her mistake. Her order was 1-34-26-5 [$1.19, $10.28, $14.98, $7.99]. She stopped after the 1st floor and won $5000, but could've received $10k.
