I have always been fascinated with the grocery store scenes in "Samantha's Lost Weekend" and "Cortisan Cousins." Since these episodes were shot on the BW set, how did the property people get all those groceries? If you look closely at the grocery store scene in "Weekend", you will notice many items out of place that wouldn't be together in a regular store.

I've always been fascinated with those background scenes, too. As well as her fridge and cupboards. They were certainly less squeamish about showing real-world products than they are today. We all know that Sam uses Heinz ketchup and drinks Coca-Cola, for instance.

She also buys Green Giant products which I saw in "A Chance on Love."

And that wasn't the case in the black and white episodes. You'll see "Albain" butter, for example, in the fridge in season one. But we see real coke, fresca,knudsen's dairy products,etc.

Mr. Mortimer, how about a product placement article for our collection?
