How to Improve On the Spot
JayC:
1. Play with 3, 4, or 5 small products, not 6.
2. If a contestant messes up on a path, s/he can stay on the path by guessing the correct price of a grocery product (choice of 2 prices, 3 GPs available.) If contestant is right, s/he stays on the path, and guesses another SP to fit the price (ex: $50) If the contestant is wrong on a GP, then s/he goes to the next path. Contestant wins by getting to the end of a path, as usual. Contestant loses when s/he runs out of GPs, and is not far enough on the last path
I know this seems Pathfinderish, but it may be helpful to get some wins. Speaking of On the Spot improvements, a set change wouldn't hurt!

Aren't they already guessing the prices of products?

Neither would replacing it with a game that doesn't suck.

He takes products to mean grocery store items, rather than the small prizes priced in On the Spot. I don't think placing both grocery items and small prizes in the same pricing game is a stellar idea.

It would make the game 1 of a kind though

Professor Price was 1 of a kind--and most of us know what a dismal failure that was.
