A The Price Is Right contestant had a wild celebration after winning $20,000. He ran around the stage with his arms in the air then hit the sign signaling he won the money.

Gary Khachiken was on the game show on October 22, 2025, but TPIR decided to reshare his win on social media on September 24, 2026. He bid $2,200 on Jimmy Choo accessories. The actual retail price was $2,680. Since he had the highest bid, he won the accessories and got to come to the stage to play Hot Seat.

The first item was a spice rack. He said it was higher than $25. After taking advice from the audience, Khachiken said the muscle roller was lower than $80.

The contestant said the RC helicopter was higher than $70. He chose lower than $55 for the car binder. With four seconds to spare, Khachiken chose the colander to be lower than $45.

They started with the ones he got right. The car binder was $33, so he won $500.

The colander was $16, so he won $2,500. Since the spice rack was $40, Khachiken won $5,000.

Host Drew Carey asked him if he wanted to keep playing, and Khachiken said he was “here to play and here to win,” so he kept going. The muscle roller was $60, so he won $10,000.

The final item was the RC helicopter. He decided to keep going. The helicopter was $86, so he won $20,000.

Khachiken got up out of his seat before Carey could even finish speaking and ran around the game, giving him a high-five. When the contestant shouted “Let’s go!” he jumped up and hit the $20,000 sign on stage.
