Watch Supermarket Sweep 1991

Supermarket Sweep 1991 is a classic game show that features contestants racing around a grocery store, answering trivia questions to earn time-saving bonuses, and collecting as many high-value items as they can in their shopping carts. Hosted by David Ruprecht, the show originally aired from 1990 to 1995 and has since become a beloved cult hit.

The show begins with three teams of two players each, typically friends or family members, facing off in a series of trivia rounds to determine who gets the first shot at the supermarket sweep. Each round consists of a toss-up question and a multiple-choice answer. The first team to buzz in with the correct answer earns points and the chance to play a bonus round, which can earn them additional time for the sweep.

Once the sweep begins, the clock starts ticking and the teams race through the supermarket aisles, grabbing as many high-value items as they can and depositing them in their shopping carts. These items can include anything from hams and turkeys to televisions and inflatable rafts. The teams are only allowed to take one of each item, and they must be careful not to exceed the store's maximum total value limit.

Along the way, there are additional bonus opportunities, such as finding a specially marked item that gives the team an extra five or ten seconds, or completing a shopping list of items that earns them additional cash. There are also mini-games and challenges scattered throughout the store, such as finding a set of clues that leads to a mystery item hidden somewhere in the store.

At the end of the sweep, the teams bring their carts to the checkout counter and the total value of their items is tallied up. The team with the highest value of merchandise and bonuses wins the game and goes on to face the "big sweep" for a chance to win even bigger prizes.

Supermarket Sweep 1991 is a fast-paced and exciting game show that has become a nostalgic favorite. Host David Ruprecht's energy and humor keep the show lighthearted and fun, while the competitive nature of the game keeps audiences on the edge of their seats. With its unique combination of trivia, strategy, and physical skill, Supermarket Sweep 1991 is a classic that has stood the test of time.
