06:51I stepped over here during that message.
06:53I was talking with Howard here for a moment.
06:55I asked him what he does. What is his job?
06:57He says he's a landscaper, and then you tell everyone.
06:59What did you ask me? You have any lawnmowers?
07:01To bid on. He wants a lawnmower to bid on.
07:04Well, we may have.
07:06We have just about everything here, Howard.
07:08Vi, what do you do? Housewife.
07:10Then you'd like to stick with ranges and refrigerators
07:12and that sort of thing. No way.
07:14I want a trip.

07:20I'm a housewife. What would you like to bid on?

08:29is $240.
08:31And Howard, you are the winner.
08:43You don't need a lawnmower to get up here on stage.
08:45No, you know all about compactors.
08:47Sharp wife, that's all.
08:49Did she help you with that?
08:51Tell me, since you have such a sharp wife,
08:53does she do most of the shopping at the grocery market?
08:55No.
08:57You do it yourself? Yeah, but I don't know any prices.
09:00Well, you're going to learn a lot about prices right now.
09:02First, Johnny, will you please tell him about these products?
09:04Right, Bob.
09:06There's Chuckwagon.

09:44combines powerful antacids with patented
09:46cimethicone for two-way relief.
09:48Digel relieves excess acid and gas.
09:50Now, Howard, when I said you were going to learn
09:52something about prices, I meant it.
09:54Because I want you to pick out the three
09:56higher priced products here.
09:58You see, we have our high column up here.
10:00We have our low column here.
10:02Now, you pick out the three higher priced products.
10:04I'll put those price tags up here.
10:06You pick them out one at a time.
10:08I'll put those up there.
10:10Then we'll check the three other price tags.
10:12And if the lowest of these up here
10:14is still higher than the highest
10:16of these down here,
10:18you are a winner.
10:20Now, Howard, if you are a winner,
10:22in addition to that compactor,
10:25you win this.
10:27Outdoor furniture and a riding mower.

11:33Dog food.
11:35The dog food here, the chuck wagon.

11:50That is $0.89.
