- ‘Price is Right’ contestant wins new car on her birthday after losing old one in an accident (marketrealist.com)
Talk about a birthday surprise! Antoinette Jordan not only celebrated her birthday on “The Price Is Right,” but she also drove away with a brand-new car, a 2025 Hyundai Elantra SE. This win was especially timely, as Jordan had recently been in a car accident that totaled her previous vehicle.
After her name was called to “Come on Down!”, Jordan played the nail-biting game, Pocket Change. The game requires contestants to correctly guess the digits in the car’s price to earn cash envelopes. Each incorrect guess raises the price of the car, making those envelopes even more crucial.
Jordan’s game was a rollercoaster. She correctly guessed some digits, earning precious envelopes, but also missed a few, pushing the car’s price up to $1.25.
The tension mounted as host Drew Carey opened the envelopes one by one. With just one envelope left, Jordan needed 50 or 75 cents to win.
The crowd erupted as Carey revealed the final envelope contained 75 cents!
An ecstatic Jordan screamed in disbelief, “Oh my God! I won?!”
and rushed to her new car. Carey joined in the celebration, exclaiming, “Go get your new car!”
What a birthday to remember!
