Improve One Pricing Game...

My only beef with Money Game is a player who plays it perfectly ends up winning less than a player who makes three mistakes but still wins the automobile.
Rather than having dollar signs behind the 7 incorrect pairs of numbers, have the word "NO" instead.
Should the player reveal the front and back of the car, any remaining numbers on the board itself would be given in cash, thus still tying into "Money Game". If the car is not won after four "NO" cards are revealed, the player only receives the cash total remaining on the board.
CeleTheRef:
To make Plinko easier to win, have a single 0 in the middle, flanked by two top value slots.
If a chip is stuck, ask the player which way to nudge it and it counts.
Special episodes could have a "gamble" feature, where you can risk your winnings to win an extra prize if you sink a chip in the middle slot.

Except that a player that knows the price of the car and fully understands the game could pull the 3 largest money values first and then front and back the car. I think this suggestion is fixing a problem that doesn't really exist and makes the game more complicated for a quick car game. Plus, this guarantees a cash minimum for a clueless contestant, which seems to be some people's issue with games like Let 'em Roll.

I only recently learned that a Money Game winner gets the money accumulated in addition to the car. I always thought it was one or the other.

Same, and by "recently" I mean literally right this minute.
