How to get the item at the back of Pinky's Parlor in Mina the Hollower

To reach the item at the back of Pinky's Parlor enter Mine the Holloweryou have to find a way to get the ladder at the front of the store as far away from Pinky as you can.

What you need to do is talk to Pinky at the main entrance to the saloon and buy one of the items on the far left or far right on the shelf. If you do, Pinky will move the ladder away from him so he can take the item for Mina. Once you have received the item, the ladder will remain in the same place where Pinky left it. Now you can exit to the Shanty Swamp and enter the shop in the back. Just go one screen right, one screen up, then another screen left.

When you are inside the store, use Mina's digging power to get under the ladder so she can pick it up (it took us a while to realize that it had to be grasped like this). Take the ladder and put it against the back upper platform, and you should have no problem getting the Joule Box upgrade in the corner!
