12 Days of Christmas for 2008 inflated by 8.1%.
On the Twelfth Day of Christmas,
My true love sent to me
Twelve drummers drumming,
Eleven pipers piping,
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle-doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree!
Lol. There exits this interesting Christmas Price Index (created by PNC Wealth Management) which is like the Consumer Price Index. It can be viewed here. 2008 12 days of Christmas has supposedly inflated by 8.1% as compared to last year's!
Interesting faq :
"Which year could the “True Love” afford to be a scrooge?
It looks like my true love (and yours too) will need to spend more money this year to bring me this basket of goods (hint: nine ladies dancing will do, I don't need that partridge, geese and whatsoever. :D).

The cheapest cost of Christmas in dollars occurred in 1995, when the true cost of Christmas was only $51,000."
