Geocache Description:

The Price Is Right: Let 'Em Roll

The Dice Game & Deluxe Dice Game debuted on The Price is Right on September 20, 1999 and is a dice type game played for a car (or on one occasion, $100,000) or up to $7,500 in cash. The game is roughly analogous to the dice game Yahtzee.


Let 'em Roll involves five dice. Each is marked with an image of a car on three sides and cash values of $500, $1,000 and $1,500 on the other three sides. The contestant is given one roll of the dice and can earn more by using three grocery items. The price for the first item is given and the contestant must determine whether the price of the next item in the line is higher or lower than the one preceding it. The contestant can thus win up to two additional rolls.

In order to win the car, the contestant must roll an image of a car on all five dice. The contestant moves behind the dice table and the five dice are placed in a container which the contestant dumps down a ramp onto the table surface. If the contestant has won additional rolls, they may return all dice which show cash to the container and roll them again or they may elect to stop and accept whatever cash is showing on the dice. If they haven't won the car on their final roll, they still win the cash showing on the dice. The least a contestant can walk away with is $500. The most a contestant can walk away with is $7,500. Contestants are not allowed to keep cash dice and re-roll cars.

Deluxe Dice Game


NOTE: Driving to this cache is NOT ALLOWED so you will need to walk to it. There are paths that ATV's, Dune Buggies Quads, and other such vehicles have used in the past, but this area is now protected tortoise breeding habitats. It is against the law to disturb them. There are soft sand barricades 2 wheel drives can not go over without getting stuck! By attempting to drive to these center dots, you will destroy the area and force these caches to be archived.

The quickest walk is from the following caches: Balut, Pandemic: The Cure, or Zombie Dice. The terrain goes up and down on the way to the cache and your vehicle is not always visible.

DO NOT drive directly to them due to tortoise and other endangered habitats. There is also downed Barbed Wire!

PLEASE BE CAREFUL with the containers and hide exactly as you found them. If the container is damaged or missing, DO NOT replace them!!!!!! As you can see there are special containers for this Geo Art! Please just log a DNF and move on.

This Geo Art series is in honor of all the games we played growing up that involve dice. There are 32 caches that make up the outer sides of the dice as well as the 2 center "Snake Eyes" This is the new and improved Dice Series Geo Art. In March 2017 while performing a maintenance run with all new containers, I discovered due to the harsh rains of winter some areas had been washed away. So since I was already upping the Difficulty, I needed to up the Terrain as well. So the old Dice Series was archived and 2.0 was born!

For the most part all GZ's are the same, or off 3 - 6 feet. Again, if the container is missing, DO NOT replace them. There are special containers for this Geo Art! That is why the Difficulty is high. Please just log a DNF and move on. Logs from throw downs/replacements will be deleted!

If the container is missing, DO NOT replace them. There are special containers for this Geo Art! That is why the Difficulty is high. Please just log a DNF and move on. Logs from throw downs/replacements will be deleted!

DO NOT drive on unmarked areas.  The caches are NOT in anyone's front yard so please do not disturb those that live here.  They are aware of the series and don't mind as long as people are responsible and polite.

Also, make sure you have plenty of water especially in April through October as it gets very hot!
