♪
[drum roll plays]
Gifting Granny's Goods sent in by Paige Williams
from LaPlace, Louisiana.
We have Carol, Paige, and Chantelle.
[cheers and applause]
All right. [laughs]
Congratulations.
Now, you guys pulled a prank that won you 20 grand,
and now $100,000 more.
Now the big question--
what do you plan on doing with the money?
- We're going to take my Granny to Disney World
because she's never been.
- I love that. Greatest place on Earth, right?
Now, you've got 100 grand, so I think that the next Christmas
is going to be off the charts whatever you unwrapped, right?
- Yeah. Come get some more of my stuff.
- It's going to be great. Well, you know what?
You guys are now in the running for the grand prize.
- Wow. Oh. - Yes, yes. Congratulations.
- Thank you. - Yes.
[cheers and applause]
- Well, we're all out of show, but we're not out of season.
Join us next time for our grand prize spectacular,
where one video will walk away with
a Disney Cruise Line vacation.
Wait, walk away?
I guess, technically, they'll be sailing away
with a Disney Cruise Line vacation.
And don't forget, if you upload a video
and it airs on the show, we'll send you an AFV T-shirt.
So goodnight everybody.
Remember, send your video to me,
you might win 20 Gs.
Good night all. [cheers and applause]
