[2] A Fremantle representative stated that "the time is ripe to bring back this all-time favourite game show which has travelled with such success over the years."

The company also stated that the new incarnation of the show would incorporate "modern technology" into the program which reflects 21st-century shopping habits.

The time they accumulate determines how long they have in the 'Big Sweep' round to run around a studio mock-up of a supermarket, collecting shopping items.

The team with the shopping trolley filled with items of the most value wins the chance to enter the final 'Super Sweep' prize round.

In the 2019 revival, a spot prize is won if the contestants find the item with the "Supermarket Sweep" logo within 30 seconds.

Original games were: Counting Calories, Rhyme Time, In Betweens, Totals, Memory Game, Higher or Lower?, Pick a Pair, Random Reveal, Reverse Reveal, Scrambled Letters, and Dale's Bluff (renamed Rylan's Bluff in the 2019 version).

New games were introduced in the 2019 version, which often feature guest appearances by other ITV-associated celebrities (usually those from Love Island), include: Stars and their Buys (guessing a celebrity from items on a receipt), Shop till you Drop (guessing how many of a particular item a celeb picks up before dropping any) and Rylan's Rummage (guessing an answer with a product from those provided) In the 2019 revival, one member of each team has 45 seconds to find all the items on Rylan's shopping list which have a "Supermarket Sweep" logo and put them into their basket.

Introduced in 2020, this game, based on Scrambled Letters, sees one member of each team remain at their podium, whilst their partners each position themselves in the supermarket with a handheld scanner.

Inflatables included a Wine Bottle, Bunch of Bananas, Single Banana, Burger, Plant, Guitar, Cake, Hammer, Microphone, Crayon, Carrot, Jukebox, Saxophone, Fish, Lollipop, Devils Trident, Golf Club and Cactus which were added in 2007.

In the 2019 revival, some of the inflatables that were added were Pizza, Ice Lolly, Mobile Phone, Monkey, Flamingo, Palm Tree, Watermelon, Keyboard, Pineapple, Stereo, Doughnut, Champagne Bottle and Cherries.
