B&V Friends Double Digest Magazine #246
In "Naughty and Nice," Betty launches a holiday gift-wrapping venture, sending Jughead to hand out her sample boxes—starting with Archie. When Veronica spots Jughead with the boxes and learns they’re from Betty, she jumps to the conclusion that Betty’s trying to outdo her with lavish gifts for Archie. Written by Frank Doyle and illustrated by Dan DeCarlo Jr. with inks by Jimmy DeCarlo, colors by Barry Grossman, and letters by Bill Yoshida, this festive issue captures the classic charm of Riverdale’s holiday antics. The cover, by Fernando Ruiz and Bob Smith, perfectly captures the season’s playful spirit.

Betty decides to go into the gift-wrapping business for the holidays, and sends Jughead out to show off her sample boxes. Jughead decides to start with Archie. Veronica sees him and asks if those are Betty's and where he's taking them. When Jughead tells her that they are Betty's and he's taking them to Archie's, Veronica assumes that Betty has purchased all those gifts for Archie, and that she's trying to make her look cheap by buying Archie more gifts.
