Host Bob Barker and a contestant standing by the "It's in the Bag" setup

It's in the Bag is a pricing game on the American television game show The Price Is Right. Debuting on September 26, 1997, it is played for a cash prize of $16,000, and uses grocery items.

Beginning with Season 33's Million Dollar Spectaculars, It's in the Bag's top prize in primetime is $24,000. All of the prize values leading up to the final bag are the same as in daytime.

Gameplay

The contestant is shown six grocery items and five grocery bags. Each bag has a price on it which corresponds with one of the six grocery items. One item's price is not listed on any bag.

One by one, the contestant must choose the item that matches the price on each bag. Then, the item inside first bag is revealed. If it matches the chosen item, they win $1,000. They may then keep the money or go on to the next bag, and risk losing everything if they have chosen incorrectly. This repeats for each bag with the prize doubling each time.
