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. During the Big Sweep, the show's announcer provided the "play-by-play." The runner for that team was sent out into the market, with the other runners entering when their time had remained on the clock. The clock was set to the highest time that was earned by the three teams. 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 maximum time available is 4:30, while maximum time for a three-way tie is 2:30. After each question, the players on teams switched places with each other.
The other version was where the teams were given five clues about a product and they must buzz-in to guess what it is. One was the Scrambled Letters game where the teams were shown a scrambled-up word of a brand name, common food, or item, and three clues were given one at a time. There were two version of the Round Robin game. There were six questions in all at 10 seconds a pop, so 60 seconds/one minute was available.

The players in control were asked a series of questions and each correct answer added 10 more seconds of sweep time. The first half was played with the first set of players and the second half was played with the second set. There were two Mini-Sweeps per show and they began each half of the question round. On some episodes, if the question was a health food, a $75-dollar gift certificate from Naturally Yours Health Foods Limited was used. But, if the partner ran out of time to find the correct product, found the correct product with no sticker, or found the correct product when time is up, no bonus was awarded. If the partner can find it in 20 seconds or less, he/she won a cash bonus of $50 added to the team's sweep total. The first player to buzz-in with a correct answer scored 10 seconds and gave his/her partner a chance to go on what's called a "Mini-Sweep" The running player ran through the aisles of the market to find the specially-marked product that answers the first question. To start, host Monte reads a question with a rhyming couplet or a fact.
Then the teams had a chance to add more time to their sweep times. To start, the three teams were given one minute (1:00). It was hosted by Tino Monte, the "host and games master extraordinaire," according to the opening, and Dave King was the announcer, who called for the items at the beginning of the show. Three teams of two contestants (usually siblings, a parent & child, best friends, or spouses) played a game of answering questions and supermarket shopping.
