Title: The New Treasure Hunt
Post by: SuperMatch93 on January 02, 2013, 12:10:42 PM
From the episodes I've seen, the box was either a klunk or was worth considerably more than the cash award envelope.

Couple of questions:

1. Was there ever a package in the box that was worth less than the cash award envelope but wasn't specifically a klunk? (For example, giving up $2,000 in cash to find a $1,500 prize)

2. Does anyone roughly know the prize/klunk distribution? I was guessing 5 out of the 30 were klunks, but I could be wrong.

No, because a contestant who is confused about whether she did good or bad and doesn't know how to react makes for awful television.

I feared the worst before I saw who the topic starter was....I thought we'd be looking at latex allergies from balloons again....

From the few eps. I've seen, it appears the prize packages were at least $3,000 minimum, so I'd guess probably not.
