Pride Is the Only Sin That Cannot Be Beat

Prue and Phoebe fight against a demon on the street, while a greedy mortal wants his box. When the human is hit by a bus and die and the demon vanishes, the sisters bring the mysterious box home and discloses that it belongs to the demon Lukas and inside is locked the seven deadly sins: pride, envy, gluttony, lust, anger, greed and sloth. Lukas recovers his Pandora box and uses the sins against The Charmed Ones and Leo: pride against Prue; gluttony for Piper; lust for Phoebe; and sloth for Leo. After the exposure, Lukas expects them to self-destruct themselves for him to get their souls.

"Sin Francisco" is a very funny episode, with Piper consuming and blowing her credit card; Phoebe behaving like a horny slut; Leo absolutely lazy; and Prue risking her life due to her pride. With the exception of the bill of Piper, the story is well resolved, inclusive the tough situation of Phoebe with her professor. My vote is eight.
