Disney sweeps wheel of fortune!

[bjscheel]

Well, it's over, good luck to everyone. I entered each time. Was just reading the rules to see when the drawings are and it made me laugh. Each day there will be two people who win a trip. Then apparently out of those winners there is going to be an "overall winner"- they should get something great, right? Well, the overall winner gets:

One (1) Wheel of Fortune Bathrobe (ARV: $80); one (1) Sheldon Bobblehead (ARV: $20); one (1) Wheel of Fortune 30th Anniversary hooded fleece vest (ARV: $40); one (1) Wheel of Fortune Baseball Cap (ARV: $20); a Pat & Vanna Talking Key Chains (pair) (ARV: $10); one (1) Wheel of Fortune aluminum water bottle (ARV: $10); one (1) Wheel of Fortune Acrylic Tumbler (ARV: $10); one (1) Wheel of Fortune Playing Cards Deck (ARV: $5); one (1) Wheel of Fortune Grocery Tote (ARV: $5); one (1) Wheel of Fortune Flashlight Key Ring (ARV: $4); and one (1) Wheel of Fortune Pen (ARV: $2).

It just struck me funny that they are giving away 10 Disney trips and one box of random cheap stuff

Maybe it's a throwback to the days when the contestants would have to spend their winnings on things like toasters and recliners during the show.

I noticed that too! Sign me up for a trip, but come on, I'm just not going to wear the Wheel of Fortune 30th anniversary hooded fleece vest. The grocery tote and the pen are the only things I could find a use for.

I agree! What a"clean out the supply closet" list of junk! But oooo, that deck of Wheel playing cards is worth winning alone!

How the heck did the Sheldon bobblehead sneak in there?
I guess it must be Big Bang Theory Sheldon?

They estimate the value at $20, but they are going for a lot less on Ebay!

Actually Sheldon is the name of the Dalmatian dog statue that people often bought when you had to spend your wheel of fortune winnings on set.

Beats me.

I thought all the answers were suppose to be Disney themed. I'm still trying to figure out where "catching a snowflake on the tip of your tongue" comes from. I guess it's a link in a Disney movie. I tried googling it with no luck.

Just some of the puzzles were Disney themed (not all)
