The debate takes a lighter turn with a Price Is Right-style contest covering a dozen grade A eggs ($2.58 actual — Fishback wins), a gallon of milk ($4.22 — Fishback again), white bread ($2.50 — Collins), regular unleaded gas ($3.81 — Collins), a Big Mac meal ($13.99 — Collins, while others guessed $8–$11), 100-count Pampers ($27 — Renner at $35 beats Collins at $46 and Fishback's guess), 24-pack of bottled water ($5.49 — Fishback), a pound of 70/30 ground beef ($4.99 — Renner's $7.50 beats others), a 5-pound bag of oranges ($6.50 — Renner at $6), monthly car insurance ($181 — Collins at $235), and monthly 1-bedroom rent ($1,685 — Collins at $1,700). Collins finishes with 4 wins, Fishback with 3, and Renner with 3. The segment is entertaining but also illustrative: Collins has the best real-world price intuition of the three, particularly on food costs.
The candidates played a grocery price-guessing game with real Florida prices: eggs, milk, gas, Big Mac, diapers, rent. Collins won with 4 correct guesses — he knew a Big Mac costs nearly $14. Fishback knew his milk prices from Publix trips. Renner knew his diaper budget cold.
The frontrunner raised $100 million and polls near 60% — but all three rivals skewered him for skipping. Collins calls it cowardice, Renner calls it disqualifying given his taxpayer-funded campaign, and Fishback argues the polls are manufactured.

Portugal's Lisbon, once a city with a major heroin problem, legalised drugs and redirected enforcement spending into rehabilitation and housing, dramatically reducing crime.
The first Boland Amendment banning CIA and Defense Department funds for the Contras passed the House unanimously — yet the Reagan administration ignored it.
Over just two years, Saudi Arabia alone donated $32 million to the Contra rebels, giving loosely affiliated factions millions they had no way to spend on arms.
The National Endowment for the Preservation of Liberty raised $6.3 million for the Contras but only $3.3 million reached them — a shockingly low 52% program expense rate.
Richard Secord and Albert Hakim marked up their arms shipments to the Contras by as much as 300%, making enormous personal profits from the covert operation.
Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North, tapped to run the entire covert Contra support operation, had no prior experience in covert operations whatsoever — he was learning as he went.
