It was mentioned that $880,000 was the highest declined bank offer ever on Deal or No Deal, and that cases #6 and #17 contained the top case value the most number of times (25 times each).
The set had a Christmas theme with snow and skaters. The models wore white Christmas dresses with white boots and gloves. Instead of cases, Christmas gift boxes with different wrapping designs were used. The case value was on the inside of the box lid. Howie told each model to "OPEN YOUR PRESENT" or "OPEN YOUR GIFT". An extra $25,000 was awarded if the contestant completed the Raindeer Game. The nine lowest cases each had the name of one of Santa's raindeers. If all nine raindeer cases were opened before a deal was made, the contestant would win an additional $25,000. Three members of the Calhoun family rotated picking cases each round. The Calhoun family took the $107,000 deal with three cases left. Matt Zedwick took the $202,000 deal with four cases left. He won an additional $25,000 for completing the Raindeer Game, bringing his total combined winnings to $227,000.
