Have any of you been on a tv game show and which one and did you win anything?

I did one. I lost and never want to hear about it again...EVER!
I won't even mention the show.
The consulation prizes (which were not expensive) were still worth showing up for though.
The consulation prizes value in dollars is a decent payday for any days work(for average people).
I got a stereo system(boom box) that was worth a few hundred dollars back then.
I would expect consultation prizes to total less than $600 because that is the
break point to where you have to claim the prize as income on your taxes.
It'd suck to win something for $600 and then find out you owe $100 in taxes on it.
