I hope this is the right place to mention this; if not, please feel free to move it...
I have a "crossover" from the Internet Discussion Group "Game Show Forum" to which I also belong. (Yes, I have rather eclectic interests.)
The original 1967 incarnation of the television game show "Supermarket Sweep" was shot on location in supermarkets. Someone has posted two clips on YouTube. We're told it was done at a Food Fair in Wallingford, Connecticut, which is now a Staples.
This should work:

The picture is a bit grainy but I think it's rather remarkable that anything at all survives. There is some question as to whether the two clips are of the same episode.
