	Supermarket Sweep - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Supermarket Sweep was a game show that originated on the ABC Network from December 20, 1965 to July 14, 1967.
		In the original run, Supermarket Sweep was broadcast from Food Fair supermarkets across the country; for the revivals, a mock supermarket was set up in a TV studio.
		The supermarket on this show was originally a Coles Supermarket, but this was later changed to a generic supermarket.

		Supermarkets place great propaganda value on “partnership” with food suppliers, but if suppliers fail to meet requirements or make any complaints about the demands placed on them by supermarkets — on delivery times, quality or quantity — the supermarkets can simply de-list them and look for alternative, more compliant suppliers.
		Supermarkets claim to provide choice, with exotic fruit and veg from the world over, but, in practice, this choice is increasingly limited to a tiny number of suppliers, located in specific geographical areas to maximise profit for the retailers.
		Supermarkets pay their workers little more than the minimum wage — with no pay for tea or lunch breaks — but in return they expect loyalty to the company in words and deeds.

		Although "Supermarket Sweep" has been on the air since the early 1990's (first on USA, then Lifetime, now on Pax), the show actually was around in the mid 1960's.
		The original "Supermarket Sweep" aired on ABC in daytime (11 A.M.?) from 1965 to 1967, taped (in fl-and-white until late 1966) on-location at actual supermarkets, usually in or near New York.
		Supermarket Sweep hasn't jumped the shark yet, but the main point of my post is to give a reply to a post already on here.

		Meanwhile, most supermarkets in Scotland have gone from strength to strength, and are now waging a new battle against that other stalwart of the street corner, the convenience store.
		The supermarket doing most of the pinching is Tesco, which is now the clear market leader in Scotland.
		The development would include one of the biggest supermarkets in the city, along with 1300 student flats in six blocks and 300 private flats, ensuring customers on its doorstep.

		Undoubtedly, the only winners in the supermarket wars are the supermarkets themselves (Supermarket sweep, 21 October).
		Supermarkets have the clout to override planning laws and concrete over vast areas for their free car parks, while local shopkeepers' wish for equivalent free and extensive parking next to their shops is seen as some sort of selfish, antisocial pipe dream.
		While this may be good for supermarkets, who can then supply expensive strawberries at Christmas, it's not too good for the environment, or for those who live in or depend upon tourism in the countryside.

		Consumer affairs writer Felicity Lawrence complains of a 'creeping takeover' of the food industry, saying that this has meant that 'British farmers have been driven out of business or pushed to the margins of survival' and that 'the disadvantaged are denied affordable access to good fresh food' (4).
		Yet supermarkets seem keen to take on the concerns of their critics, and to pose as local and community-centred.
		Supermarkets might be better off doing what they do best - sell a large variety of goods as cheaply as possible.

		The point: supermarket consolidation means developers and owners of neighborhood anchored centers must focus more carefully than ever on the basics of good locations and credit tenants.
		Most recently, supermarkets have begun to experiment with a totally new concept store such as Freshgo by Giant Food, which is operated by Giant Food Inc. Giant is a part of the Ahold USA family of retail food chains.
		But the produce tables, the seating area, and the prepared meal area sweep across the space in the front half of the store.

		And your suspicions increase three-fold when you realise there is no need for you to fight fellow shoppers for an empty trolley or begin negotiating your trip down the first aisle in the same way you would tackle an army assault course.
		I am not prepared to keep returning to what have become retail white elephants – huge outlets that have nothing for sale, brimming with shelves that are completely empty, with shoppers unable to pick up even the most essential of items from a chain that once prided itself on the choice it offered its customers.
		I remember interviewing a Price Club high flyer when the supermarket chain was at the height of its glory, full of plans to expand, with some of its competitors deeply concerned about the monopolistic position the company looked set to hold in the market.

		Last Thursday, as Waitrose's managing director, Steven Esom, prepared to brief the media on his supermarket's long-awaited introduction into Scotland, Fingleton played his trump card: a 70-page report on the dominance of the UK grocery market by the supermarkets, which is expected to be a forerunner to a full investigation by the Competition Commission.
		There is a rule that if a supermarket chain already has three stores in a certain area, it cannot buy another site which has been used as a supermarket.
		Tesco and Asda have roughly that in the supermarket sector.

	How safe is your grocery store? - Dateline NBC - MSNBC.com
		While we wouldn’t shop in a store we didn’t think was safe (and there are tens of thousands of stores across the country that handle food safely), if there is one thing we’ve learned in Dateline’s year-long “Supermarket Sweep,” it’s that you can’t assume your grocery is as clean as it should be.
		One way to do it is to research your supermarket’s safety record by checking the reports filed by health inspectors— but few people have time to track down those reports.
		We knew the only way to really rank the cleanliness and safety of your favorite supermarket was to look at every health inspection report over a whole year’s period for dozens of stores in each chain.

		This time would be used in the Supermarket Sweep itself, where one of each team would go "wild in the aisles" trying to hoy as much grub into their trolleys as their little flabby arms could manage.

		This is because the French have strict laws forbidding supermarkets from being fully efficient and taking over the country, thus preserving the ubiquity, richness and character of their traditional patisseries, horse butchers, boules shops and purveyors of fishing and boar-hunting requisites.
		Meanwhile, it is predicted that our own small to medium-sized communities will be dying on their feet within 10 years as all the nice country pubs and post offices are boarded up and left to fall into disrepair, their once prize-winning, flower-festooned forecourts full of burned out Ford Fiestas with their wheels missing.

		some of the world's largest supermarkets have earned the right to call themselves banks.
		While supermarkets probably don't need to worry about banks muscling in on their core business, it’s far more likely that supermarkets will become genuine competitors in the sale of credit cards, personal loans and other financial products.
