Sammi and Snooki battle over their beach boutique shops on 'Jersey Shore Family Vacation'

It was the battle of the reality TV star Jersey Shore boutique owners.

In this corner, Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola, owner of Sweetheart Coast on the boardwalk in Ocean City. In the opposite corner, it's Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, owner of the Snooki Shop on the Boulevard in Seaside Heights.

Sammi and Nicole hashed out their differences on the Thursday, Aug. 10, episode of “Jersey Shore Family Vacation.”

“I have no beef, I'm just blocked — that's all,” Nicole said.

Sammi blocked Nicole on social media after Nicole opened the Snooki Shop. Sammi thought it infringed on her store.

“I didn't do that intentionally — I'm a franchise,” Nicole said. “What about women supporting women?”

Sammi, a native of Hazlet, initially didn't want to hear it. She contended that Nicole's place was beach-themed, which would compete with her store. Nicole denied it was beach-themed, but she did eventually concede that, “I sell beach things. It's on the beach.”

“They're fighting over who sells sea shells by the sea shore,” quipped Vinny Guadagnino.

Still, the issue wasn't enough to drive the friends apart for long.

“It was a petty move on my part to block you,” Sammi said.

“It's a stupid thing to block me and hate me over,” Nicole said. “Like, we can both have stores.”

Sammi, in her second episode back, also cleared up minor issues with Jenni “JWoww” Farley and Deena Cortese at the Hawkview Retreat in the Poconos, where the cast has decamped for a getaway. Sammi was driven to the resort by Angelina Pivarnick, who was hopeful Sammi would have her back in her disputes with the roomies.

“I'm finally going to have another girl in the house who's not afraid to stand up to Jenni,” Angelina said “I just have a feeling things are going to go down in this house.”

It didn't “go down” to the degree Angelina hoped for.

“Oh my god, she's only been here for 12 minutes and she's made up with everybody?” Angelina said. “I'm (blanked).”

Sammi was immediately welcomed back. She starred on the original run of “Jersey Shore” from 2009 to 2012, but opted out of the “Jersey Shore Family Vacation” reboot in 2018.

“I couldn't be in a house with a toxic ex,” said Sammi of her ex, Ronnie Ortiz-Magro. “You guys didn't really know, but nobody's really asked me, either. So it wasn't that I hated 'Jersey Shore,' it was kind of like I had to get my (blank) together and figure out my life.”

The 36-year old is older and stronger.

“You're a lot stronger now, even if (Ronnie) was there it's OK because you're different now,” said Sammi's mom. “You can handle it, but if you are exposed to that relationship again, talk about it. It doesn't have to be a bad thing.”

Sammi seems happy with her decision to return.

“Oh my god, it's like I never left,” said Sammi. “Everyone was so welcoming, and I'm kind of blown away and I feel really touched.”

Angelina's fiancé, Vinny Tortorella, did not appear on Thursday's episode, nor was the recent incident at Angelina's Freehold Township home, where police were called after alleged altercation, mentioned.

No arrests were made. Tortorella's lawyer, Elizabeth Rozin-Golinder, told the Asbury Park Press that the couple are still engaged.
