Description

Stan and Ollie have set up their own electrical appliance store but, unfortunately for them, the grocery right next door is run by the man and wife whom they encountered in "Them Thar Hills" (1935). Stan and Ollie go and visit to offer the hand of friendship, but the grocer again becomes convinced that Ollie and his wife are fooling around.

    Stan and Ollie are excited to be opening their hardware store. Being a polite sort of soul, Ollie decides they should pay a visit to their neighbouring grocer and introduce themselves. The thing is, they have some past with this fellow (Charlie Hall) so are promptly sent packing. That might have been the end of it, but for a mishap with some lightbulbs, a street elevator and a ladder that naturally convinces Charlie that Ollie is up to no good with his wife (Mae Busch). Next thing we know, they are in each other’s shops with sabotage rather than shopping on their minds. This isn’t the most energetic of L&H stories and though it’s harmless and amiable, it’s also a little bit pedestrian as the pranks they perpetrate on each other become all too perfectly staged and are not especially funny. Actually, I found the daftest element was a subplot that tees of the conclusion largely unrelated to their earlier antics. Watchable, but not my favourite.
