About this episode
Originally Aired: December 9, 1941 Fibber McGee & Molly #304, "On Sale," Fibber McGee receives a postcard from the Whistla Vista Wholesale Outlet Store offering him a 40% discount on merchandise as one of their select "prominent citizens." Never one to pass up a deal or a chance to show off, Fibber eagerly volunteers to help his friends and neighbors with their Christmas shopping at wholesale prices. When Billy Mills mentions he wants to buy his sister a fifty-dollar radio, Fibber jumps at the opportunity to save him money. Mrs. Uppington soon arrives looking for a floor lamp, and despite her claims that money is no object, she's hoping to keep her purchase under seven dollars—making Fibber's discount seem like the perfect solution. As Fibber's reputation as a wholesale connection spreads around 79 Wistful Vista, he grows increasingly confident in his new role as the neighborhood's discount shopping expert. The stage is set for McGee's characteristic overconfidence to lead him into complications as he promises to deliver bargains to everyone who comes calling.
