The cost of The Twelve Days of Christmas: geese are expensive this year
For 31 years PNC has compiled an index of the cost of all the items in “The Twelve Days of Christmas”.
As my Christmas shopping list did not include any Geese or Swans this year, while I clean forgot to order any Dancing Ladies or Leaping Lords from Amazon (would they have been included in my Prime subscription I wonder?) I am indebted to PNC for pricing information.
I wonder who has the job of collecting this information? It reminds me of an economist friend who once said that with so many economic statistics “broken down by age and sex” his goal was to be part of those that were broken down by sex.
Here’s the Washington Post article The real cost of the twelve days of Christmas about the PNC index.

Andrew:
thank you for all your efforts in 2014. i enjoyed tuning in.
One comment for your consideration – and, maybe i just am doing it wrong: in the interest of reviewing some of your past blogs, I clicked their links, and as they should have, they promptly appeared on my screen. But, i suggest to make them complete, you should have any of the comments that were posted regarding them included. Presently, the past blogs comes up, and only the comments on the most current entries appear on the left.
What do you think about having the past, comments accompany the blogs they were written for to add to the conversation ?
have a healthy, fun 2015. Jody
