Costcodle answer for February 26, 2025
Puzzle #526. 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 Readywise Arc 7 Day Meal Kit 72 Servings. The price stored for this puzzle is $54.99. A winning guess is any amount from $52.25 through $57.73, because the game accepts a guess within 5 percent. The yellow band, within 25 percent but not yet a win, runs from $41.25 to $68.73.
How I would have opened it
If I had started this day at $32.99, that guess would sit about 40.0 percent under $54.99. 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 $52.25 to $57.73.
