PG #6:  Switcheroo for a Buick Regal LS.

But hold your horses here, Heather can win more!  The video African Queen, an Ocean Motion, an electric air pump, and a men’s shaver.

The missing digits are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 9.  Heather places the blocks like this:

$23,110  CAR
$
25  VIDEO
$
40  OCEAN MOTION
$
85  AIR PUMP
$
95  SHAVER

Heather has only one prize right, and decides she wants to switch a few things around.

$23,190  CAR
$
15  VIDEO
$
20  OCEAN MOTION
$
45  AIR PUMP
$
85  SHAVER

And despite changing all 5 of the blocks, she has 3 right now!  What is one of the prizes Heather has won?

$15  VIDEO

She’s won the video… what is another prize Heather has won?

$85  SHAVER

She’s won the shaver.  And through a little deductive reasoning, you can already tell what the 3rd prize she won will be.  Since she changed all 5, the one she had right before must be wrong now.  And since the car and air pump had the 1 and 8 before, those couldn’t have been right before, so the Ocean Motion was obviously what she had right before, at $40.  Now since that one’s wrong now, and the one with the 4 has to be wrong also, the last prize she’s won is, of course…

$23,190  CAR

And she’s won the car!  And despite her little error, I’m really glad she won this game!

WON!
