Biggest Tattletales money rollover?

[Kniwt]

Seeing the penultimate question answered all-wrong and the final question worth $450. Was there ever a double-rollover or more to $600 or $750?

(Yes, I'm asking a Really Important Question here. )

This episode hosted by Gene Rayburn had the final question worth $600. Bob Barker, Bobby Van & Elaine Joyce are here with Bert Convy playing the game. Sound quality is low but the episode is funny as all Hell.

I remember seeing a $600 question on more than one occasion.  $450 wasn't that unusual, but there was at least once where nobody got either of the first two questions right and the third question was $450.

Another interesting thing is how many times everybody missed the $300 question - leading to a much lower winning score.  It happened on a few occasions.  I guess the production company saved a few bucks on those shows!

Wasn't there a more-or-less running gag that, whenever that happened, Bert would say the money "went into Mark Goodson's pocket"?

Tangentially related: The episode that just ended on Buzzr had something I didn't recall seeing before: a three-way tie that forced a non-round-number money total for each section, rounded up to $584.

As a youngster who watched only because there weren’t any other game shows on in its time slot, this was a rare highlight.

When three-way ties occurred, Convy would close out the show by saying the entire studio audience would divide $1,750! (or $1,900 if they played an extra $150 question, and all three couples were right!)

I remember a number of 3-way ties, and each one had each couple get an extra $334. I assume this was because had it been 333, that would have only been 999, instead of the "promised" 1000, and Standards & Practices would have had an issue. I remember the original JackPot! had a similar "problem"; at the beginning of each episode, Don Pardo's spiel said that a riddle could be worth "up to $50,000," but the largest target was 995, so in theory, the largest Super Jackpot was only $49,750 (well, if you don't count the one time the board malfunctioned and the multiplier was 55); Geoff said in one episode that if that ever happened, they would add $250 to make it an even $50,000.
