Big Bills
PNC Wealth Management, which has been calculating the cost of Christmas since 1984, has compiled 2009's Christmas Price Index, which measures the price of the traditional gifts for all 12 days.
Breaking down the list, the price of rings shows gold up substantialy. Yet the greatest increase was for French hens - while another of the poultry items, partridges, decreased by the same percentage. And in terms of dollar layout, the dancing ladies cost far more than a numerically equivalent performance by those available for rent at the local "gentleman's club." But if you have an extra $87,403 around, go ahead, knock yourself out... No, please, not with the strippers.
