Supermarket sweep game show

I watch the supermarket sweet game show on reruns from the '70s and watch how they load up with big pork shoulders, turkeys and briskets and other expensive items in the 1970's load two or three baskets full to push it back to score $500 to $600 worth of groceries. I'd like to see them try that now in 2024. I'd be more like two three or four thousand dollars now, what do y'all think? 😜

I've dropped a $1,000 stocking up my Lake house pantry and deep freezer at Sam's in 1999 and other than things like bread, milk and perishable items because the grocery stores were so far away to run into town and I caught all my fresh fish right out of my backyard and up in the lake. That bill of grocery would probably cost me three grand or more now.
