Where did the living room sets, the jewelry packages and the baby grand pianos go? When was the last time that a wheel prize
wasn't a trip? Is this just one more thing that "Wheel" just stopped doing over the past few years?

I would imagine that trips are far easier for the schlockmeisters to procure than actual real expensive prizes.

Not only are trips easier to acquire, it also can be part of a package of trips for the show to acquire, not only for on the wheel or for a contestant, but for the home viewer contests as well. (Wheel Watcher ID and the like...)
