I have been a fan of TPIR for over 15 years. I watch the show as often as possible. I have several question that I am curious to know. 1. What percentage of fees and taxes are US contestants required to pay? 2. Is this amount due at the end of the show or prior to shipment date? 3. Is the winning contestant responsible for shipping cost?
	Contestants on The Price Is Right are subject to California State Tax and Federal Tax. The prize winnings are taxable as earned income and therefore vary with each contestant. Taxes are paid when contestants file their tax returns for the applicable tax year. Contestants do not pay the shipping of their prizes.
	Could you please tell me when the first show of the 2002-2003 season will be aired on TV? Thank you!
	September 23.
	I have a few questions regarding the showcase showdown at the end of the show. First off, to win both showcases, did the difference used to be $100, then changed to $500, and currently $250? Also, what would be the ruling if both contestants had a difference of, say, $200 or something like that? Would you guys have to shell out four showcases? Thanks.
	On the daytime show, it used to be within $100. A contestant now can win both showcases if he/she is $250 or less away from the actual price of the showcase. If both contestants are the same amount away from his/her showcase & are $250 or less away from his/her showcase, then we do have to "shell out" four showcases. It has never happened!
	I saw a person on one of your shows wearing a price is right hat. I was wondering if he had that made or if you sell them somewhere. If you sell them I was curious if there is a way I could by one, even though I live in Iowa. Money is no issue. Dan Fowler
	The hat is available through the CBS online store at CBS.com.
	I saw a playhouse on the other day around 7/2/2002 and lost the website. Can you direct me to the right website? Very interested.
	The playhouse is made by English Garden Buildings. You can find this item at www.englishgardenbuildings.com.
	On today's show, one of the companies featured Hawaiian flowers with an 800 telephone number with the word FARM. I was wondering if I could have the number, I would like to be able to order tropical flowers from this nursery if possible. Thank you.
	The phone number for Big island Tropical Flowers Farms is 1-800-32FARMS.
	I would like to know where to purchase the $600 bid CD rack from the morning show aired July 5th, 2002. Also, is there a way to get a list of sponsors to find back prizes or do you just need to monitor the show and write in each time? Thank you. Ellen Beckemeyer
	The CD rack that you inquired about in the below question was made by Midwest Tropical and can be found at www.midwesttropical.com.
	On the Price is Right, they awarded as a prize a glider rocker that I have been searching for the company that makes them...Town Square. Is there a possibility that you could give me a source? If you could help I would really appreciate it!
	The glider rocker you inquired about in the below question was made by Towne Square Furniture and can be located at www.gliderrocker.com.
	You recently had an above ground swimming pool featured on your telecast. It looked like 3-4 rings, each indented a little. My wife thought there was an elephant in the commercial. Can't find it on internet. Could you send me description of product? Thanks-- Theodore B. Scott
	The pool you are looking for is made by Doughboy. You can locate it on the internet at www.doughboy-pools.com. This model is the 18-ft model and the retail is $2,200.
	During the primetime show with Navy participants, a model walked to the bidding contestants wearing a pearl and gold necklace. Where can this be purchased?
	The necklace that you inquired about is made by Michael C. Fina and can be located at www.michaelcfina.com.
	I watched the show this morning & there was a prize that was a glass shelf with the water bubble columns on each side. I think the product was made from Midwest Suncoast, Inc. I'm not real sure though. Could you please tell me how I would find this product to purchase it?
	The prize that you inquired about in the below question was made by Midwest Tropical, Inc. and can be located at www.midwesttropical.com.
	Hello, I saw on your show about a month ago or so, an adult three wheeled bicycle. It was really cool looking and since I cannot ride a two-wheel bike, due to hearing trouble, would like to be able to find out more about it. Any help that I can get from you would be great. Thanks in advance for your help.
	The bicycle that you inquired about in the below question is made by Worksman Trading Corporation. I am not sure which model you saw, but we have three tricycle models. The models we have are the Adultlite Trike Model #ALT2F, PAV3 Adult Tricycle and the V-ICT Ice Cream Tricycle. You can locate these items at www. Worksman.com.
	have searched your web site but it is not up to date regarding Rod. Where is he??? I miss him and his wonderful jackets. I certainly hope that he is not gone for good but also hope that he is not ill. Looking forward to your response. Priscilla & Ralph Walker
	The show is airing some repeats taped when Rod was out ill last fall and Burton Richardson was filling in.
	Can you please settle an argument for my husband and I so I can prove him wrong ... again!! He says in the final showcase that when you are $250.00 away from the actual price or less you win both showcases. I agree with that. That is how the show is today. However, we disagree on what it was before $250.00. I know it used to be $500.00 and he claims it used to be $100.00. Can you please settle this for us? Thanks, Karen
	It is now $250 or less but it used to be within $100 and the contestant would win both showcases. It has never been within $500 for the daytime show.
	My question is has this ever happened - when the three contestants are spinning the big wheel and all three get $1?
	Yes, all three contestants have hit a $1.00 in the wheel & two contestants have hit the $10,000.
