The very biggest loser stands to win a shopping spree, thus far valued at $10,000 through the generosity of Imrei Binah supporters Reich Jewelers ($3,000 shopping spree) Rena Beane (Shevy Shaitel valued at $2,500), Brooklyn South West and Elegant Linen ($1000 shopping spree each), and Ladida ($1,500 shopping spree).
