Christmas Price Index

This info is trivial, but entertaining.  From the JustSell.com daily newsletter - the 2007 cost of the 12 days of Christmas from the CNNMoney.com website:

Here’s the breakdown of the 12 days…

1. Partridge in a Pear Tree - $164.99
2. Turtle Doves - $40
3. French Hens - $45
4. Calling Birds - $599.96
5. Gold Rings - $395
6. Geese-a-Laying - $360
7. Swans-a-Swimming - $4,200
8. Maids-a-Milking - $46.80

10. Lords-a-Leaping - $4,285.06
11. Pipers Piping - $2,213.40
12. Drummers Drumming - $2,397.85

I had no idea the price of Lords-a-Leaping had gone up so much.

    I wonder if this covers the cost of the lake on the estate’s exclusive real estate?
