I wonder if that's just how the official rules refer to it
Official rules? Do you really think this person did any research beyond Wikipedia and Off The Top Of My Head?

Okay, I'm glad I'm not the only person wondering about the "Supermarket Sweep" question. I couldn't remember the bonus round ever being given an official name either -- the only evidence I could find was the always-reliable Wikipedia.

Also, a ten-question quiz about game shows of the 80s and 90s, and more than half of the questions are about kids' shows? I was a kid in the 80s and 90s, so thanks for playing to my sense of nostalgia, but there were other game shows during that time.

Providing more credence to the Off The Top Of My Head research theory.

Absolutely not. But who's to say that the name isn't there?

So you're suggesting she might have lucked into the right answer, and if she did, that's ok?
