Line 242:
** Sometimes, the 3rd contestant will make a one dollar bid or bid one dollar higher than the previous player if they have no idea what they are doing or just want to look like a smartass, causing the last contestant in the queue to bid one dollar higher than them, making the infamous two dollars bid.
** The one-dollar-more strategy was parodied in ''[[Family Guy]]'':
{{quote| '''Bob Barker''': What do you bid?<br />
'''Contestant #2''': $780.<br />
'''Bob Barker''': And what do you bid? <br />
'''Contestant #3''': What was the last bid?<br />
'''Bob Barker''': $780<br />
'''Contestant #3''': Uh...$781!<br />
'''Contestant #2''': FUCK YOU! }}
** On the bright side, if you manage to get the price exactly right, you not only can't be beaten, but you get a $500 bonus as well. Due to the rounding rule, this is the only way to win the round if somebody bids $1 more than you.
