On Monday, the official Wheel of Fortune Instagram page announced that they are celebrating their 8,000th episode by giving away lots of cash to lucky winners.
Throughout the week, the jackpot starts at $8,000 and will increase after each round of the episode.
Monday’s Jackpot was worth a massive $21,600 and Tuesday’s was worth $22,750.
However, many players have had issues with the WoF website filling out the appropriate qualifications.

Viewers had to enter the Bonus Round Puzzle Solution on the website shortly after the episode aired.
If they participated in all five puzzles, they would receive double entries to win the large sum of money on offer.
‘I’VE ALREADY TRIED THREE TIMES!’
In the comments section of some posts discussing the contest, fans informed the program about the technical difficulties they encountered.
“I’ve tried three times to enter the puzzle answer and the system crashes every time… Doesn’t provide input confirmation,” said one fan.
A second person responded to the comment above claiming they also had problems.
“I tried more than 5 times to log in and never got a confirmation,” commented a second.
A third wrote: “Get a better server that can’t handle the traffic.”
“I clicked send but nothing happened,” wrote another person.
The technical error wasn’t the only thing that bothered Wheel watchers recently.
MAKING CHANGES
Last week, a fan mentioned an “unfair” rule on a Reddit forum dedicated to the beloved game show: Holiday Wins.
Wheel of Fortune Host Timeline
Debuting in 1975, the beloved game show has had a few different iconic hosts over its nearly 50 seasons.
If a contestant wins a vacation, they will also receive the money their vacation is worth and will be invested into the game.
For fans, this could be seen as an unfair advantage in the game.
“I wish the money earned from traveling wasn’t added to the cash earnings,” one fan wrote.

A second added: “As for the prizes, I wish they gave away more than just trips.
Maybe something like game rooms, home theaters, jewelry and some of the things they give away on The Price is Right.”
“I agree with you,” said a third, “I always hated that they did that. The person who wins a trip is being rewarded twice: they win the actual trip when the show ends and they get the cash value of the trip added to their game total to help increase their score.”
