It’s Wheel of Fortune, European Vacation 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 11-26-18 Wheel: $67,600
On Jeopardy: $9,199

Heather got one of each consonant and two 0’s and the only thing left to do was tell Pat the answer. She got an extra $36,000 to add to her $31,600.
_ H _ T _ B O _ _ _ Z _ !

Tue 11-27-18 Wheel: $44,338
On Jeopardy: $16,399

Rick got one P and one A from the letters he chose. He figured out the first word but he was
S _ I _ _ I _ _ H E _ A R _
on the last one when time ran out. An Alfa Romeo Stelvio would have been nice, but Rick still won more than a lot of players who solve the bonus puzzle. His Wheel experience was far from dim.

Wed 11-28-18 Wheel: $23,998
On Jeopardy: $30,401

Leslie got two C’s and one A but an abundance of blanks remained up there. The only word she knew for sure was
_ H _ O _ _ I _ _ H _ M I _ _ L _
That conjunction wasn’t going to help her win the extra $36,000.

Thu 11-29-18 Wheel: $28,198
On Jeopardy: $5,200

Kristin got 2 of her consonants, a G and a C. With no starting letters, she couldn’t get a toehold on it and
_ H E B _ _ _ L E W _ _ L O _ _
She missed out on one of those Alpha Romeo Stelvios. Ah, well, they’re still getting nice paydays over here this week, the kind that make Alex Trebek proud!

Fri 11-30-18 Wheel: $24,198
On Jeopardy: $4,799

Immani got one B from her consonants and two I’s on the vowel side. The second word was a cinch to figure out but the first was
_ B _ _ _ O _ E _ _ F F _ C U L _
to get within the time limit. The prize on the card was $36,000.
