Jack Benny Program: Jack at the Supermarket | uploaded Jan 18, 2011 by Jenny Li | YouTube

Rochester beat Jack in gin rummy and has taken the afternoon off to play golf, leaving Jack stuck with the household chores. Jack finds out how Rochester cheated and uses it to his advantage. Don Wilson and Dennis Day come to visit, and Dennis sings a song. Jack leaves for the supermarket, where he encounters Frank Nelson as a salesman. Jack's stingy stage character is shown when he sees a table of free samples of cake.
