Inflation, measured by the Christmas Price Index and based on purchasing each day’s items once in “The Twelve Days of Christmas,” fell a staggering 58.5% in 2020 to $16,168.40 from $38,993.59 in 2019. Why the huge price drop? Social distancing – Covid-19 laid up the nine ladies dancing, ten lords-a leaping, eleven pipers piping and twelve drummers drumming! Of the remaining nights, turtle doves rose the most, 50%. Merry Christmas!
