Studio contestants were assisted by four celebrity panelists, as they tired to identify items submitted by home viewers. The panel for the premiere week was comprised of Vanessa Brown, Hans Conried, Audrey Meadows and Albert Morehead. The celebrity panel asked questions to help them learn the identity of the item. Each question asked raised the purchase price of the item from a minimum of $5 up to $100. A player who successfully identified the item received the purchase price and a chance to triple it by correctly answering three questions.
