Weather Machine Salesman
Episode 0848

Grover comes to Kermit's home to sell him a machine that can produce weather inside his home. Grover makes it snow, makes it windy, and then makes it rain inside Kermit's living room. Note: At the beginning of this sketch, Kermit tells Grover that he didn't know that he was a door-to-door salesman, which implies that this might be the first skit where Grover tried to sell something to Kermit.

Grover reads about construction of a new building, a parade, and an expected rain shower, all of which occur as Grover reads.

Hair Piece Salesman
Episode 2996

When Grover comes to Kermit's home dressed in salesman attire, Kermit quickly tells Grover that he doesn't want whatever it is that Grover is selling, since Grover always tries to sell him things that he has no use for. However, Grover tells Kermit that he has come to give him something: a hairpiece. Once it is on Kermit's head, Kermit decides that it doesn't look very good. Grover agrees, and offers to sell him a comb, a hair brush, some shampoo, and hair tonic.

Sunglasses Salesman

Grover wants to sell Kermit a pair of sunglasses, but Kermit doesn't have a nose or ears to hold the sunglasses up with, so Grover gives Kermit a pair of sunglasses with ears, a nose, and eyebrows attached to it.
