Well by now the countdown is on whether you like it or not.  Christmas is just over 2 weeks away!  The kids are getting there last letters in to Santa and if you think about it, he has it a lot easier than most.  He gets a note to guide him when it comes to what people want.  For most of the rest of us, we are left to guess what gift will be appreciated, liked, used and that is often NOT easy.  The days of leafing through the Sears Wish Book looking for the most tattered pages for ideas are no more.
You could follow the Christmas songs.  I would certainly enjoy “A Massey Ferguson For Christmas“, haha.  There are many options offered up with the various versions of the 12 Days of Christmas too.  This year if you are thinking of giving the gifts mentioned in the original version, the price is up, no big surprise.  Looks like this year the pear tree pushed the cost higher, and the turtle doves… the price of the “two turtle doves,” which rose 25% from $600 to $750, according to Forbes. The price of a “pear tree” also saw a significant increase, up 15% from $260 to $299.
