What are some ideas you've come up with for pricing games? I've come up with a few, but the one I like most is called Yard Sale. It works like this:
Four prizes are shown. Three are marked below the ARP, one is marked above. The contestant must choose the three that are below the ARP in order to win.

CHALLENGE IT
The price of a car is shown with three numbers wrong. The contestant is given three "challenge flags" and places them on the numbers he/she believes are incorrect. If the contestant is wrong on his/her first attempt, he/she has a chance to win up to two more by guessing whether the ARPs of two small prizes are marked above or below the price given. Game ends if the contestant challenges all three numbers correctly, runs out of attempts or fails to correctly guess the ARPs of the two small prizes.

Here's my TPIR pricing game idea,
Alphabet Soup,
How Alphabet Soup would be played is that a contestant will have a chance to win money by getting letters to spell out a word that leads to a grand prize and the contestant has to grab letters with a fishing rod into water and if they get a letter that's in the word the model will put it on a letterboard while wrong letters will result in a strike and the contestant will have 30 minutes to guess what the mystery word if they get three correct letters but if the contestant gets three strikes a buzzer will sound and the contestant will lose his/her cash if they guess incorrect letters or pick up letters not featured in the mystery word. Great idea for a TPIR game that involves spelling and would be fun to play on TPIR

The Coupon Game
4 grocery items are shown, each marked below the retail price of the item. The contestant must determine whether a $0.50, $1 or $2 coupon was applied to the item. The first 3 items are worth $500, $1,500 and $3,000, with the amounts being cumulative and the game not ending on an incorrect guess (though if a contestant gets all of the first 3 wrong the game will end with a $0 win). The 4th item multiplies the contestant's winnings by 5 if they are right, but they will lose everything if they are wrong, so the option to bail out will be offered.
The first item will be a gimme usually (like a single serve candy bar marked at 79 cents), the 2nd and 3rd will be challenging, and 4th will usually be quite difficult as an item in the $10-$20 range will be used.
So, $25,000 is up for grabs for daring smart shoppers. What do you'll think?

And another grocery item game with a $25,000 top prize...........
The Food Pyramid
A three level pyramid full of food grocery items will be shown. On the first level, the contestant will be which of the 3 food items shown is most expensive. On the second level, the contestant will be asked which of the 2 items shown have a retail price above $5, with neither and both being options. On the third level, the contestant will be asked to price the item shown within $1 of the retail price. The game won't end on an incorrect guess on the first two levels. The first level cleared is worth $1,000, the second $5,000 and the third will be worth $25,000. After clearing a level the contestant will be given the option to bail-out, with the knowledge that if they don't clear another level they'll leave with nothing.

Least Expensive
3 prizes, but instead of choosing the most expensive, you choose the least expensive

I've got 2 ideas
1. THE PRICE IS WRONG:
A trip or a piano or something of similar value is the big prize. The contestant is then shown 6 smaller prizes (e.g. a frying pan, a toaster, a blender etc.) and each item has a price on it. 4 of the items have incorrect prices on them and 2 have correct prices on them. The contestant picks an item and if it has a wrong price they win that prize and keep going. If they pick all 4 wrong priced prizes they win the big prize. If at any point they pick one of the 2 correctly priced items the game ends but they get to keep any prizes they claim prior to that.
2. MONEY IN THE BANK:
the big prize is $25,000 and the contestant is given a "bank" (a prop of some sort with a scoreboard on it.) The bank that starts at 0. The contestant is shown a display with 5 tiers. the first tier has 2 items valued somewhere between $5-$10, the second has 3 items valued from $10-$50, the third has 4 items valued between $50-$100, the fourth has 5 items valued at $100-$250 and the fifth has 6 items valued at $250-$500. On each level a price is shown which is the actual retail price of one item on each level and the contestant picks which item has that price. Each correct guess adds money to the contestants bank. $500 for the first tier, $1,000 for the second, $5,000 for the third, $10,000 for the fourth and $25,000 for the fifth. After each attempt the host will ask if they want to take the money they've already won and leave or try to add more to their bank. An incorrect guess ends the game. An incorrect guess on the second and third tier forfeits half of their accumulated bank leaving them with either $250 or $500. An incorrect guess on the fourth tier leaves the contestant with $2,500. An incorrect guess on the fifth tier forfeits the entire accumulated bank.
