It’s Wheel of Fortune, Best Friends Week, and we’re posting the Bonus Puzzle with the winner’s final prize amount. By way of comparison, the Jeopardy! payoff is also included with a link to the recap of that game.

Mon 4-23-18 Wheel: $17,256
On Jeopardy: $28,799

Jeannie and Andy added a P, an H and 2 O’s to their puzzle. From this, they knew the second and third words, but they just couldn’t get a handle on that first word. Therefore, they could not get their hands on that $35,000 extra bucks on the card.

Tue 4-24-18 Wheel: $75,900
On Jeopardy: $20,000

Mike and Jonathan couldn’t have picked better letters. They got two C’s, one H and four O’s! All that was left to do was read the solution and find out what they won: a pair of MINI Coopers worth $48,920. That was on top of the $26,980 they racked up in the main game. Fabuloso.

Wed 4-25-18 Wheel: $27,600
On Jeopardy: $14,780

Jenyl and Angela put two C’s, one H and one A in the puzzle but neither word produced any “talk it out” guesses from them. They missed out on a pair of MINI Coopers but they’ll always have this moment to remember: when they won $15,000 on three C’s in the “Thing” puzzle. They already knew the solution and that solve pretty much won them the main game.

Thu 4-26-18 Wheel: $19,646
On Jeopardy: $10,600

D.C. and Joey added one Y and one I up there, for a grand total of 4 letters in a 2-word puzzle (6 and 3 letters). They nailed the second word but the first one proved their ondoing. The two MINI Coopers were lost to them but during the main game, D.C. and Joey rode the Express all the way to Waikiki Beach. Just that prize was worth $14,696.

Fri 4-27-18 Wheel: $69,920
On Jeopardy: $17,300

Mike and Brad got a C and 2 O’s out of their letter choices. They figured it out right before the buzzer and they won — you guessed it — a pair of MINI Coopers worth $48,920. That was in addition to the $21,000 they won in the main round.
