A The Price Is Right contestant had an agonizing overbid of just seven dollars on Showcase that sparked a big reaction from viewers.

Lucy won the first item up for bid, on Thursday, May 15, which was Michael Kors accessories. She bid $2,151 on a $2,278 item. She played Danger Price for a chaise, a foosball table, a moped, and countertop appliances. Lucy won them all but the foosball table.

The second player, Evelyn, bid $1 on designer watches on the fifth item up for bid. She won as the items were $975 and the next highest bid was $1,875. She played Switch? for a trip to Portugal and a trip to Greece. She won when all she had to do was decide whether to switch the prices or not.

For the Showcase, Lucy bid on a coffee maker, a washer and dryer, and a 2025 Bayliner Element M15. She picked $27,000 for the price. Evelyn’s Showcase featured a digital piano, a yoga package, and a 2025 Nordic Forest Honda HRV LX. She bid $26,950. The actual price of hers was $30,552, making her $3,602 under. Normally, a person would not win a Showcase with those odds, but something crazy happened.

Host Drew Carey revealed Lucy’s Showcase to be $26,993. She was only $7 over, but since she was over, Evelyn won. “Wow, Lucy. That was a bad beat right there,” he said. “Over by seven bucks.” Evelyn won a total of $60,190.
