United Kingdom (1993-2001/2007)[]

ITV, Daily: September 6, 1993 - September 6, 2001 (549 episodes in 7 series)/February 12 - August 31, 2007 (60 episodes in 1 series)
Also pretty good, although host Dale Winton could've benefited from toning it down a bit. One main problem, at least early on, was that no items in the front game were actual brand names, meaning some blind guesswork and generic terms; in fairness, though, the "covered-up" products tended to have a "Sweep" brand name on them.

Unlike the American and Canadian versions, an audience was legitimately present throughout and everything's treated as if this were an actual supermarket (including, as noted above, the seeming presence of a "store brand"), which really does nothing but add to the show.

Dale's Supermarket Sweep (1998-2001/2007)
Not much different, aside from the slightly different name. The 2007 version upped the stakes and made the store even nicer-looking.
