PNC Christmas Price Index
URL: http://www.pncchristmaspriceindex.com/CPI/index.html

Description:
The financial services company PNC "calculates the Christmas Price Index each year as a fun, lighthearted way to look at the increasing cost of goods and services bought by the True Love in the holiday classic [song], 'The Twelve Days of Christmas.'" Features prices for one partridge in a pear tree, five gold rings, nine ladies dancing, and more. Prices date back to 1984. Includes a video presentation.
