Supermarket Sweep
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermarket_Sweep
The “Big Sweep” was the chance for the teams to run throughout the aisles and to grab whatever they could off of the supermarket shelves.
The runner could bring their cart back to the team’s register at any time, at which point it was exchanged for an empty cart. Any items in the runner’s cart when the bell rang were included in their total.
The three main rules for the Big Sweep were:
- The teams could only take up to five of each item.
- Any items dropped and/or upset had to be returned to the shelf or in one’s cart, or incur a $25-per-item penalty. Teams were also penalized for running into supermarket displays, cameramen, or any other personnel.
- Only one member of each team could be in the store at a time; the other team member was required to remain at the checkout counter to unload the groceries.
This was the greatest game show of all time.
That is all.
