How this puzzle was scored

Costcodle asks you to guess one price in six tries. A guess within 5% of $23.99 would win, a guess within 25% would show yellow, and anything further away would show red. The arrows tell you whether the real price is higher or lower than the number you stamped, which is how you build a narrowing price corridor.
