Costcodle answer for November 1, 2024
Puzzle #409. I read this row from the official games list. The date is the UTC calendar day sampled at noon; your live game may show another number in your time zone.
The shelf price
The item is Glucerna Diabetes Nutritional Shake Rich Chocolate, 24 x 8 fl oz. The price stored for this puzzle is $30.99. A winning guess is any amount from $29.45 through $32.53, because the game accepts a guess within 5 percent. The yellow band, within 25 percent but not yet a win, runs from $23.25 to $38.73.
How I would have opened it
If I had started this day at $18.59, that guess would sit about 40.0 percent under $30.99. Anything beyond 25 percent away is a red tile. I would then jump toward the middle of the remaining range instead of nudging by a dime. Once a guess lands inside the yellow band I only test the center of $29.45 to $32.53.
