Have you ever wondered how much it would cost to send your true love 12 drummers drumming, five gold rings, and a partridge in a pear tree? Check out this fun video above which adds up the total cost of this classic Christmas carol. You can also visit their website, the 2011 Christmas Price Index for a full interactive version. Something tells me I won’t have the budget to send Jai seven swans a-swimming this year! 😉

Ohmagoodness! I had no idea the cost!
Lol that was entertaining! All those birds sure are expensive.
Holy cow- I didn’t realize how much! Loved the video!
At least 5 golden rings are down this year:) That was a neat video.

They did that in such a cute way! Gold down, but geese and swans up? What the heck?!!

Ha ha, that was a fun way to put it!

LOL! Too cute!
Definitely not cheap!
That’s too cute!
