The price of love is rising

On the 12th day of Christmas, my true love gave to me....

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!

it looks like renting your love by the hour might be more cost effective.

very NSFW.

Shopping off the Mackenzie brothers' list might be a bit cheaper too.

Or shares in Apple come to that.

I bought my girlfriend 80 dollar Uggs on Black Friday. And maybe a card and candy too. She'll love them, and me!

isn't that the same as asking if anyone has ever been divorced?

Ouch!
My husband and I had a divorce settlement that didn't require either of us to pay a penny to eachother.

And I left him with the funds to set up his online business and make the much talked about changes to our cottage when I went.

I've never paid for sex by the by, but it's getting to the point where if I had the money I would pay just to be wined and dined and found fascinating.

We are very specific about not spending a lot on each other unless we buy a joint gift.
We dislike commercialism though and have never celebrated valentines day at all.

I slept with an ex to get a set of bar glasses and a coffee maker.

I slept with another ex to get a 25% discount at the liquor store.

I'm a whore.

I sleep with my husband every night...and every day with him is a gift to me. :)

We're getting a boat for xmas. That's enough of a monetary gift for either of us for well...pretty much the next 10yrs till we can afford a bigger one.

I have not paid or been paid to have sex...but it isn't unheard of for me to ask about a possible shopping trip right after.

I've heard that replacement joints are becoming quite popular as gifts. or did you mean weed?

Replacement joints... weed is not a gift, is infrastructure & I don't pay for it.
