In the song people sing about Turtles, French hens, calling birds, golden rings, geese, swans, maids, dancing ladies, drums... If you buy all this things that the song recommend as Christmas gifts, you would pay $78,100. PNC company said so in the annual PNC Christmas Price Index. The amount is 4 percent higher than the last year. PNC is growing financial services organization spanning the retail, business and corporate markets, primarily dealing with financial services. Company can provide you with information from business overview, through media contacts, economic reports, to investor events. There's a lot going on at PNC and one of the services is also calculating the price of Christmas. They has been doing so each year since 1984. Although it seems to be humorous, the price index of Christmas gifts stated in the song mirrors actual economic situation and leading trends for future. For example, according the price of five golden rings we can find out the increasing price of gold, geese reflect increasing price of food stuff. Increasing prices could lead people to think more about gifts and buy rather one or two really suited for concrete person instead of headless shopping of senselessness. It would be really expensive to buy to your beloved all the things, mentioned in the song. It is disputable if such a big amount of gifts wouldn't spoil the Christmas spirit. It might be appreciated much higher if you sing the carol with all the love you have instead. If you are a bad singer, choose rather five golden rings.
