It’s Wheel of Fortune, America’s Game 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.

Theme: Weekend Getaway

Mon 10-5-20: $27,240
On Jeopardy: $14,000

Natasha put three A’s in the bonus puzzle. She could not get a B _ A _ _ N _ I T H _ R W _ R _
so that was a no go. The $45,000 on the card was a no go, too. Ugh! Don’cha hate it when that happens? (Thanks to Richard for his help)

Tue 10-6-20: $23,750
On Jeopardy: $27,700

Juanita put one G and one I into the bonus puzzle. That filled in the I-N-G ending of the first word but didn’t do anything to offer a sufficient path
O _ _ E R _ S U _ _ I C I E _ _ P _ _ H
to the solution. She missed out on an extra $38,000.

Wed 10-7-20: $55,950
On Jeopardy: $22,000

All the letters Shannon chose went into the puzzle. Super picks, and once that happened, she could
_ A V _ C _ O S _ D _ _ R _ Y _ S
and solved it! Shannon won $38,000 on top of the $17,950 from the main game.

Thu 10-8-20: $81,900
On Jeopardy: $15,300

Adam had a Wild Card that he really didn’t need. The P and A from his regular choices were all he needed to solve this
_ U I C _ E _ _ H A _ A W I _ _
Adam scored a MINI Cooper convertible worth $36,850, on top of the big $45,050 he already made. Wowza!

Fri 10-9-20: $19,450
On Jeopardy: $27,600

Julia only got one A from the letters she chose. We could see there was not going to
B _ _ _ U R _ K _ _ O _ _ N T
with this one. A free MINI Cooper was not in Julia’s future either, though she had a decent down payment if she really wanted one.
