This is how it worked in my own family as well. Help with finding and loading/carrying/unloading items, spot bargains, especially stuff that isn't on that week's list but is a regular purchase. Sometimes we would then be rewarded with special treats. I don't know why but I really enjoyed it growing up, even though shopping is a bleah chore for me now.
