The price was almost right on Friday’s mind-blowing episode of The Price is Right.
During the Showcase Showdown host Drew Carey was left shocked to the core when one of the contestants bid so close to the actual value of the prize that Carey called it the “best Showcase bid in the history of the show.”
Patrice Masse from Grande Prairie, Alberta, Canada, played the game and made it all the way to the Showcase Showdown. He placed a $39,500 bid on a prize package that featured a trip to Miami and a new car.
When the time came to reveal the actual value of the prize package, Carey was left speechless.
“So, let me tell ya…” he began, as the crowd and Masse anxiously awaited the results.
“Thirty-nine thousand, five-oh-one.”

Masse’s bid was within $1, meaning he won both prize packages.
According to the current rules, any contestant who comes within $250 without going over wins both showcases. Masse’s incredible guess made him one of the show’s rare Double Showcase Winners.
Congratulations, Patrice! What an awesome win. That will for sure go down as one of the best wins in the history of game shows.

The Miracle of Nature: The Story of Genetically Identical Triplets
When Becki-Jo Allen learned she was expecting triplets, her life was completely turned upside down. The young mother from England, already caring for her daughter Indiana, was stunned by the news that she would soon have three more children. However, what happened next was even more unexpected.
Becki-Jo’s journey began when she started feeling unwell and suspected she might be pregnant again. Her excitement grew when a scan confirmed she was expecting triplets. Though the news came as a surprise, Becki-Jo was thrilled by the prospect of expanding her family.
However, there were complications with the pregnancy. At 31 weeks, Becki-Jo was rushed to the hospital and underwent a Caesarean section to deliver her triplets. The babies were born prematurely and were very small, with the lightest weighing just 3.3 pounds. They needed to spend six weeks in special care, fighting for their lives.
Against the odds, the triplets survived and thrived. As they grew, Becki-Jo noticed that people often had trouble telling them apart. Strangers would stop her on the street, asking if they were identical. While Becki-Jo was sure they were not, she decided to get a DNA test to be certain. The results revealed that the triplets were genetically identical—a rare occurrence, happening only one in 200 million times.
Raising triplets is no easy feat, and Becki-Jo’s family requires a lot of help. The household is always busy, with the washing machine running nearly constantly. Despite the chaos, Becki-Jo is incredibly grateful for her miracle children.
As the triplets grow, each one is developing their own unique personality, but Becki-Jo is amazed by the deep bond they share. “It’s incredible to see how close they are,” she said. “They’re always together and have their own little language.”
Becki-Jo’s story is a testament to the power of nature and the unpredictability of life. Though the birth of her genetically identical triplets came as a surprise, they have brought her immense joy and love. Despite the challenges of raising triplets, Becki-Jo feels blessed by the miracle of her children and the special connection they share.
