I had this on cassette back in the day, and I still listen to it every year. All of their XMas shopping episodes are hilarious, but this one is golden!
Thank you for this treat, so right for the season. Jack's annual assault on Mel's harried clerk has to be one of the funniest--and darkest--jokes on Holiday commercialism ever.
+firefly1933 I like that Mel's clerk and his wife (Mel Blanc and Bea Benaderet) also played a husband and wife in later life - Barney and Betty Rubble!

Dennis has some of the best lines!
“Does your mother have my build? “
“If She did my father wouldn’t need cheering up “!

What classic artists
This is classic Benny always changing his mind! Poor Mel lol
This episode Beatrice and Mel used their real names.
28:04- "Stay tuned now for 'THE AMOS 'N' ANDY SHOW', which follows immediately, over most of these stations. This is the CBS Radio Network."
That show was a hoot, too.
Upon his passing, Jack Benny had arranged for Mary to receive a single red rose every day for the rest of her life.
If you can't laugh at this program, you don't have a sense of humor.....
