Supermarket Sweep

Supermarket Sweep is by far the best Gameshow made,even though it's kinda cheesy,but its still good.Supermarket Sweep offers a great deal of enertaiment,well at least I think so,and for some reason,I find it funny at some points,meaning I find it funny when the contestants scream like weiners.Supermarket Sweep is a show where contestants have to answer some questions in the beginning of the game to build up time for thier sweep,after they answer the questions,they all enter the "sweep" where they have to get the most amount of money by collecting groceries before the time runs out.The best part of the show is to see the really fat people run up and down the aisle while theyre panting desprately for air. Great etertaiment,and some comedy pieces that arent supposed to be funny make Supermarket Sweep a loved.I give it a 10 out of 10.

My wife and I were on this show in 2000 I think it was. We auditioned, got called back within a week. Taped our show, which we won, and won the extra $5,000 for a total of about $6,200. then a few weeks later they called us back for a tournament of champions week and we ended up winning that week for another $6,500. It was so much fun running around the store. My wife got mad at me because in my first run around the store I didn't get her a bonus and I spilled the candy when I was trying to fill up the bag, which I ended up not getting credit for since I forgot to tie it, that's a no no. I did even better shopping the second time around. health and beauty aisle is the one to hit, small big priced items. I wish they'd bring it back again too, i really enjoyed watching, and playing.

Each episode is fun all throughout, but the most exciting and sometimes heartbreaking part is the final sweep where they search for the $5,000. There've been so many close calls, and when a contestant does find it, they always flip out! $5,000 isn't even all that much of a prize, yet this is still one of the most exciting game show bonus rounds. Wheel of Fortune's bonus rounds can be played for up to $100,000, but they aren't as gripping and suspenseful to watch as Supermarket Sweep's. The big sweep where all three teams are playing to get the most points is also quite fun to watch, though the first team to go usually always wins (since they have more time).

Overall, this show has an awesome premise (running around a supermarket to find the stuff you buy all the time) and would be nice to see on TV again.

I like Supermarket Sweep. One of the best game shows to exist. David Ruprecht was also a great host for the game too. My favorite part of the is of course when there running around, throwing stuff in there carts and going crazy getting those big things worth like 200 points. This may sound strange but I'm surprised the show lasted as long as it did because coming into this decade people seem to be more interested in reality show (which I think aren't good and a waste of time) and plus you don't really hear people really say that there a fan of Supermarket Sweep or anything. It just wasn't as popular later on, but I still watched the new episodes. Now its over.

Supermarket Sweep is one of those game shows I saw as a kid. Airing on Lifetime, Supermarket Sweep is basically a weird idea: a game show set within a supermarket, with all the questions based around food, but it actually works, especially in a time before I ever knew of the Food Network (where a show like this would have better fit).

Hosted by David Ruprecht, the game show pits three teams of two people against each other for the chance to win $5,000. The first two rounds start with a mini-sweep, which starts with a question, and whoever gets it right has ten seconds added to their sweep time and the teammate goes through the supermarket to search for the product that was the question's answer, with bonus money awarded based on fast he or she gets said product back to David. The two rounds add some variety, as each one has a different view each episode, but what is similar is the questions in them (as well as the round robin round at the end of round two) add time to a team's sweep time, which is used for the best part of the show: the big sweep.

The big sweep is neat as it has all three teams going through the supermarket to get the most in groceries and other bonuses (bonuses which also differ by episode) with commentary by Johnny Gilbert (who is best known as the announcer for Jeopardy!). The team has the highest amount afterwards goes on to the final round, where they have one minute to find three marked products tied to three clues (the third product hiding five thousand dollars in cash). Regardless of winning or losing, the team who got to the final round keeps their winnings, and the other two teams get parting gifts (so they don't leave empty handed).

This is a neat game show. The games are neat (like the 30 Second Shootout, which each team has thirty seconds to guess three products in the style of The $10,000 Pyramid), and the big sweep has some neat gimmicks (including inflatables of food mascots which has a random money bonus amount). This is a classic game show worth checking out.
