A contestant on "The Price Is Right" ended up winning a big prize after a model assisting the Thursday, April 2 episode of the game screwed up. The model named Manuela Arbelaez accidentally gave away a $21,960 car after she revealed its correct price before the game ended.

Andrea, the lucky contestant, first guessed that the price of a Hyundai Sonata SE was $19,849. Arbelaez removed the incorrect price tag as well as the correct one. After realizing the model's mistake, host Drew Carey could only laugh while Andrea quickly shouted, "I won it!"

Carey went on to congratulate Andrea, "Congratulations, Manuela just got you a car!" He also tried to console Arbelaez, who clearly looked embarrassed as she tried to hide herself.

Arbelaez later took to Twitter to make fun of the incident. "Sometimes you wake up and feel like giving someone a car! Most expensive gift I've given someone," she wrote. "I don't usually give expensive gifts, but when I do is a $21,960 CAR. #YoureWelcomeAndrea #WokeUpFeelingGenerous."
