Costcodle answer for May 2, 2025
Puzzle #591. 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 Pediasure Optigro Vanilla Kids Shake, 24 x 8 fl oz. The price stored for this puzzle is $35.99. A winning guess is any amount from $34.20 through $37.78, because the game accepts a guess within 5 percent. The yellow band, within 25 percent but not yet a win, runs from $27.00 to $44.98.
How I would have opened it
If I had started this day at $21.59, that guess would sit about 40.0 percent under $35.99. 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 $34.20 to $37.78.
