Budget Day is the day that a government presents its Budget to a legislature for approval, typically in a ceremonial fashion. It only exists in some countries of the world. In particular, the United States does not have a Budget Day. There, the legislation that establishes the federal government's budget originates in the Congress, although the executive branch traditionally makes a proposal in advance, often amid some ceremony.

Master Key is another pricing game on "The Price Is Right", but I don't really like that one because the prices of the prizes are never revealed (either on screen or mentioned by the announcer).
