Description Edit | History Are you ready to test your inflation-fighting skills in the marketplace? Bargain Hunter challenges you to furnish an apartment (complete with two different pets) in the most economical fashion possible. Starting out with 1000 $ in cash, you move your pawn along the path visiting Furniture Stores, Department Stores and the Pet Shop to buy specified items on your shopping list. Be on the look-out for sales and lottery prizes. But watch out for whopping big auto repairs, interest due spaces or steep restaurant tabs...They can really take a bite out of your budget! If you do run low on cash, use your plastic credit card which allows you to charge up to 1000 $. Complete your shopping list first *and* owe nothing on your charge account and you'll win the game.
