NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - If your true love wants to lavish you with gifts for the 12 days of Christmas this year it's going to cost them nearly $20,000 -- a 3.1 percent increase from a year ago.

The 23rd Annual PNC Christmas Price Index showed that rising wages for milkmaids, the higher gold price, and rising food prices would push the cost of funding the holiday song "The Twelve Days of Christmas" up to $19,507 this year.
Good thing there wasn't a tank of gasoline on day 13!
