Final Answer Friday --- The Boxes

Well, we had guesses ranging from 22 to 425 and everywhere in between! Everything that you pick up and would call a "box" (including the plastic ones) was counted...but not the "boxes packed inside bigger boxes". Basically, it was the number of boxes I had to physically pick up and carry into the living room. In the video itself, you can see far more than 22, so that number is far too low, and thankfully 425 is far too high! The correct number of boxes is 96 (where was Julie's guess...she is usually good at these "shot in the dark" questions). It is a small illusion as most of the small boxes are in front (so it makes it seem like there are more there than really exist) and only big ones are in the back.

So that makes Dana our winner this week with a guess of 87. As a prize you can come and pick out any 3 boxes out of the pile you want.* Please pick the big ones so we don't have to move them!!!

I guess I was WAY off on my guess, so very glad you don't have 100 boxes to move :-)
