As an 8 year old kid, I used to watch this show on a nightly basis. Reason being, I used to sit there and literally write down notes in my notebook because I was planning on starting my own identical game show, but for kids and in a toy store.
The couple in the bonus round was smart to run to the place where the product would be (i.e. the drinks for Gatorade) and just look for the tag. Too many teams seem to hang around in one spot trying to figure out the clue. What a nice win for them :-)
J Miller Even worse was after Supermarket Sweep was Shop Till You Drop. And man, they were living in the 90s, thats for damn sure! The tucked in shirts, pastel, teal, flourescents. The khakis with the white sneakers. Oh, and those who were stuck in the 80s with the Bon Jovi Groupie Hair, the mullets, and the 80s clothes. Oh my.
As a kid, I wanted more than anything a toy store shopping spree. If you were a kid who grew up in the late 80s-early 90s, then you know that shopping spree giveaways were a big thing back then, and very popular. I seriously used to make lists of what I would get if I was in one. You know....just in case. lol
Me too lol Now we didn't have toys r us in canada back then. We had one with a purple panda mascott Toy _________ and I remember one year a fake toys r us moved into the old dominion in st laurent shopping center (and they had a glass wall so you could see inside the store from in the mall...and it was TOYS everywhere.... 80's and 90's kids had the best toys...Xanadu was one of these stores, so many action figures...video games...etc etc... Heaven. I did the list thing too, what I'd grab first lol I'll always have this mental image of going on vacation to Virgina and they had a magic kingdom theme type toystore (google has pics if anyone remembers) and there was just - what seemed like - a wall to the ceiling on LJN WWf figures...big john studds for all of the usa almost lol)... I got some Ghostbusters figures and the ghostbuggy and Fangster...it was such good prices my dad bought me a lot. We didn't have that back home...
OK this show is bringing back so many memories.. especially going to the store and playing our own version with my dad..he would make up clues for us kids to find what we need..I think they need to bring this back especially since they are bringing back Whose line is is anyways
I always liked this show but could never get into Shop Till You Drop. That was the rebound show because back then...we only got so much channels with cable tv, so if there was nothing else on, I would watch it.
We can't have any candy in the morning but after eight mint is the last clue Cathy and Neal found 5000 dollars is what they found. Hooray they found the money and the clue
I noticed that during the epsodes of Season 2 (late 1990), the $5,000 cash fan was attached to the back of the product. In the next season, the money fan is no longer attached on the back of the product because they added a new rule to the bonus round that the team has to have their hands on the money by the time the time's-up bell rang in order to win the money. I think it happened during the first season.
It actually wasn't that rare. Just had to be wise about your shopping strategy, and hope your opponents spent too much time fishing for bonuses. You know you'll probably only get one cart, so get the health/beauty aids and the smaller housewares, like pots/pans and film.
@@wschmrdrAlso just keep in mind that no matter who you choose as your Partner before the beginning of the Show, communication with your Partner is very important.
Correct me if I'm wrong but this show went on for a couple of seasons but got cancelled. Was there a reboot of this around the early to mid 2000's? I just have this vague memory of being super excited when this show aired again on PAX T.V.
You'll also notice the new think music for the Round Robin game as well. So yeah, SS did have 6 seasons altogether on Lifetime after all. Seasons 3 and 4 had only 1 mini-sweep an episode with the 1993 season introducing us to the 2nd mini-sweep, Ruprecht wearing shirts and ties, the Candy Corner, the TV Mystery Product, the International Bread Center and the VHS section of the supermarket and the 30-second shootout game. BTW, the 1992 season was also the first to have mid-episode fee plugs.
Kari2025 Well, for one thing, they didn't have as many bonuses as they did in later episodes (such as the mini-Sweep, the coffee, and the candy). Plus, inflation is another factor.
Not to mention that the carts used for the Fall 1990 season were higher up, shallower, and held much less groceries. Unlike the Winter/Spring 1990 season, when Hughes Markets provided the supermarket contents, and the meat/turkeys were real, this was the first season to utilize realistic, weighted plastic replicas, so the contestants didn't get 'meat juice' on the sweatshirts. Beginning with the Spring 1991 season, they brought back the classic, deep shopping carts, and made the plastic replicas bigger, and more heavier. I could recall that on the first season, only two teams had a total higher than $1,000. Only one team had a total higher than $1K in season two, and three in season three. The all-time record, happened in the final season, when a team who amassed 3:30 (or 4:00 of sweep time), literally snapped up every bonus in sight and amassed a record total of $2,048. Linda Ann Kozlowski, who designed the Sweep outfits was very protective of her sweatshirt/dickey outfits on the show. I heard, from a contestants' interview on the AV Club website, that only the losing teams got to keep their outfits (and consolation gifts), while the winners simply got the cash.
I think teams could do as many of the bonus features as they could, but they would only get credit for one of each type of bonus (one inflatable, one bag of candy, one coffee, etcetera).
Yes, and according to Game Show Wiki, the opening spiel for Season 2 (late 1990) went like this: "How would you like to find $5,000 in the supermarket? Imagine, picking a product off your supermarket shelf and attached to it is all that cash, and it's yours to keep! All you have to do is run around the market, grab everything as fast as you can! If you can grab more than anyone else, you'll get that chance to go for the $5,000! You say your supermarket won't let you do it? Well, hang on, because we let people do it all the time on the one and only game show that makes it possible, Supermarket Sweep!"
Yes it did, the 1993 season also had violet-red and aqua-colored sweatshirts switched numbers and the yellow sweatshirts remained at "3" but now darker shaded and that season also introduced the total displays at the bottom right corner of the screen. Now, in addition to the Shopping List bonus, the 1991 or the 1992 season I think introduced the Manager's Special, and the 1993 season would be the only season to have the Cake Decoration and the Coupon bonuses I think.

I loved this show me and my boys would watch it all the time !!
Also if you went on Supermarket Sweep, who would you choose as your Partner?
i loved this show i watched it everyday
I miss this show!
U can now see it on Buzzr TV.
I loved this show
A year before i was born , i feel old
It's good see families play together.
Also don’t forget about Mother & Daughter Week.
OK this show is bringing back so many memories.. especially going to the store and playing our own version with my dad..he would make up clues for us kids to find what we need..I think they need to bring this back especially since they are bringing back Whose line is is anyways
you should do a parents tag and have them talk about the experience :]
it was exiting in the end..
Best show ever.
Wow, Steve! Great job by your parents!
I always liked this show but could never get into Shop Till You Drop. That was the rebound show because back then...we only got so much channels with cable tv, so if there was nothing else on, I would watch it.
You have very cool parents!
That must be fun watching your parents all those years ago :)
Also keep in mind that Supermarket Sweep is where you & your Partner team up to win the Big Sweep & Cash together.
Steve, your dad was a hottie!
This must be surreal for you to watch, OP.
they don't make shows like this anymore
the way this was it felt so peaceful to me
Thank god
very rare episode
Also Team 3 wins the Big Sweep once more.
The host is the guy who married Janet on Three's Company.
They should really bring back this show but make it more modern.
Dionte Brown
make it more modern? Really? I assumed they'd just keep it 90s style.
dude your parents are awesome
don't you just miss these type of shows I do so much
+daminmancejin I do.
YAAAAAAAAASSS!!!
You must of been very proud of your parentals
Damn. At 2:03; he just cut her off & did not even pretend to show interest in her. lol.
Tania Jones Ikr? That was rude and awkward.
Tania Jones I noticed that too! It was like “Oh a housewife, NEXT!”
YES! She was like "no, not at...."
And he just moved right on his merry little way. You can see she's embarrassed by that
We can't have any candy in the morning but after eight mint is the last clue Cathy and Neal found 5000 dollars is what they found. Hooray they found the money and the clue
I woulda kicked ass on this show
Your mom is pretty but your dad is very goodlooking XD
11:14 - "Switzzler"???
No such word.
Steve, your parents are awesome. Not only did they win while wearing the yellow sweaters, but they also found the fifty Franklins.
I'll bet whenever your folks go shopping they sing that "Boss Ass Bitch" song to themselves or aloud, maybe?
The old prop for $5,000 was just a tag with cash.
I noticed that during the epsodes of Season 2 (late 1990), the $5,000 cash fan was attached to the back of the product. In the next season, the money fan is no longer attached on the back of the product because they added a new rule to the bonus round that the team has to have their hands on the money by the time the time's-up bell rang in order to win the money. I think it happened during the first season.
Jumanji welcome jungle tonight
Holy inflation
All of,these is making me hungry!
That's a first I've never seen the number three people.win
And Kathy is happy to be having Neil be her Partner in front of her Smile & Nose!
The totals were low. Even with Barbara’s detergent, diapers and hoses, she only got $204. I wonder why.
wow i didnt think team number 3 would win in the sweep

This is from the second "season" of Sweep, which bowed on 9/3/90. The third season started the mini-sweeps and bowed in March or APril 1991 IIRC.
This must be from Fall-Winter 1990! Thanks for the upload!
safe
Look at his nifty sweater
Miss the show
Looks like a Magic Eye poster
This is gave Johnny Gilbert talking time.
your parents are so dope
Correct me if I'm wrong but this show went on for a couple of seasons but got cancelled. Was there a reboot of this around the early to mid 2000's? I just have this vague memory of being super excited when this show aired again on PAX T.V.
Correct. It came back in the early 2000s till 2003. They had new bonuses including the alphabet game & a jelly bean area.
You'll also notice the new think music for the Round Robin game as well. So yeah, SS did have 6 seasons altogether on Lifetime after all. Seasons 3 and 4 had only 1 mini-sweep an episode with the 1993 season introducing us to the 2nd mini-sweep, Ruprecht wearing shirts and ties, the Candy Corner, the TV Mystery Product, the International Bread Center and the VHS section of the supermarket and the 30-second shootout game. BTW, the 1992 season was also the first to have mid-episode fee plugs.
About that second sentence-- Still wrong.
April 2024 anyone?
9:34 no one got it but I value it!!!
Hi David
by 52 dollars I do believe
That's the luckiest I've ever seen anyone win the big sweep.
ADD flashing graphic.
nice
Hey at least someone won the $5000
Yoooo joooeee
Barbara do you work outside the house? Lol that question wouldn’t fly these days.
Barbara & Barbara Jean are twins!?
Never waste that much time on the shopping list. Also, team 2 just got too many big bulky items. You can't fit anything around them.
So when did the Candy bonus come into play? I know for a fact the Coffee bonus came in 1992 or so.
The coffee came in midway during the 1991 season, and the candy came in 1993.
$442 was the winning amount? That is incredibly low! Holy shit, these people couldn't shop worth a damn.
Kari2025 Well, for one thing, they didn't have as many bonuses as they did in later episodes (such as the mini-Sweep, the coffee, and the candy). Plus, inflation is another factor.

Woodie B. Every bonus? Probably why they then limited teams to just one bonus
I think teams could do as many of the bonus features as they could, but they would only get credit for one of each type of bonus (one inflatable, one bag of candy, one coffee, etcetera).
Woodie B. You need to get a life
Did this $5000 win mark the debut of the siren?
that has to be the lowest maingame total that won the $5,000
There had to be some penalties in there or something.
Didn't the 1993 season also introduce the $250 Super-Bonus?
"Are you working outside the home?" hahahah NO BITCH I WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK FROM HOME
Yep. The 2nd season, I think. Wasn't the 1st season the only one with the original "Is this one of your fantasies?" opening.
Yes, and according to Game Show Wiki, the opening spiel for Season 2 (late 1990) went like this: "How would you like to find $5,000 in the supermarket? Imagine, picking a product off your supermarket shelf and attached to it is all that cash, and it's yours to keep! All you have to do is run around the market, grab everything as fast as you can! If you can grab more than anyone else, you'll get that chance to go for the $5,000! You say your supermarket won't let you do it? Well, hang on, because we let people do it all the time on the one and only game show that makes it possible, Supermarket Sweep!"
Actually, this is still part of Season 1--considering Season 2's premiere just aired on Buzzr yesterday.
And I believe Season 1 was the only season where David reminded the teams that as soon as the bell rings, they have to stop.
Team #2 had a terrible strategy. I'm glad they lost. Also, Gatorade in glass bottles!
This one was kind of a dumb-off, but good for that couple that won. Those were some hard clues!
Yes it did, the 1993 season also had violet-red and aqua-colored sweatshirts switched numbers and the yellow sweatshirts remained at "3" but now darker shaded and that season also introduced the total displays at the bottom right corner of the screen. Now, in addition to the Shopping List bonus, the 1991 or the 1992 season I think introduced the Manager's Special, and the 1993 season would be the only season to have the Cake Decoration and the Coupon bonuses I think.
So, this is the premiere of the $5000 siren in the bonus round.
I hope David burned those sweaters. Hope he didn't donate them anywhere the homeless deserve better loll
Old people should just stay off the show I dont want them falling and getting hurt
It says 1990 but ER didn't start til 1994
This E/R was a 1984 CBS sitcom that starred Elliott Gould!
@@RolandTaylorJr And those reruns replaced Rodeo Drive, the game show that was the first companion show to Sweep. It aired from 2/5-8/31/1990
@0:10 someone has these 2 ladies $5,000 win on youtube.
Again, 1993.
There's a different version of that ROUND ROBIN cue
No different here.
TVLubber, don't shout at me, I was only 6 when this debuted I don't know record, KNOCK IT OFF!
No!
Is $442 the lowest anyone ever won a sweep with?
