Sweet Sixteen and a Brand New Set of Wheels!
A California teen celebrating her 16th birthday got the ultimate gift on a recent episode of “The Price Is Right”: a brand new car! The show’s Kids Week episode featured teenagers playing alongside their parents, and Isabella, sporting a celebratory “It’s My 16th Birthday” t-shirt, was one of the lucky contestants.
Isabella, accompanied by her mother, played the nerve-wracking game “Safe Crackers.” The game challenged her to guess the price of a set of premium sunglasses to unlock a safe containing the sunglasses and a bigger prize: a Chevrolet Spark. The pressure was on!
With the help of the audience and her mom, Isabella carefully chose each digit of the combination, hoping to unlock the prize worth over $16,000. Her final guess?
$840. Host Drew Carey prompted her to give the safe a spin, and the door swung open on the first try!
The audience erupted as Isabella realized she had won the car. “Get ready L.A. there’s a new driver on the road!”
Carey exclaimed. The heartwarming moment resonated with viewers at home, many of whom offered congratulations online.
Some, however, were stunned by the $840 price tag on the sunglasses, proving that sometimes, the biggest surprises come in small packages!
