12 Days of Christmas, Parrothead Style

Post by DiverDan »

I saw a piece in the paper saying that the 12 days of Christmas now costs $34,363, so I decided to price out 12 days of Christmas. I came up with a total of10.052.02.

According to the song:

8 Vintage 8 tracks, $0.75 each, cheapest thing on the list $6.00.
7 Vegas Tickets, Dead and Company at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, upper bowl $155 each, $1085.
6 Mac Guitar Picks, couldn't find any, but picks from the 2016 "I Don't Know" Tour, $69.99, $419.94.
5 Cheeseburgers, Key West Margaritaville Restaurant, served like the song says, with lettuce, tomato, dilled pickle and fries, $13.49, $67.45. Cold draft beer sold separately.

Total cost for 2022 is $12,480.57. However, it was pointed out to me at a Christmas party last year that we roll through the song multiple times, so the real total is $112,895.12. Please be kind when you’re checking my math. As always, Merry Christmas to ALL!!!!

12 Landshark Lagers $14.99 on sale at our local liquor store.
11 Lulu Cookbooks “Gumbo Love: Recipes for Gulf Coast Cooking, Entertaining, and Savoring the Good Life” Forward by Thomas McGuane. 11 @ $32 = $352.00
10 Tiki Torches Walmart Sunnydaze Outdoor 3-in-1 Adjustable Height Tiki Face Patio and Lawn Torch Light Set - 2pk $62.95 times 5 = $314.75.
9 Pairs of Flip Flops, Margaritaville Beachcomber Flip Flops 9 @ $24.00 = $224.91
8 Vintage 8 tracks, $5.00 on eBay. Not sure if it was for just 1 or a whole bunch. $40.00
7 Vegas Tickets, Jimmy Buffett Las Vegas Saturday March 11, 2023 MGM Grand Garden Arena. Prices vary depending on location, but you want to be right down front. 7 @ $366 = $2562.
6 Mac Guitar Picks, from the Bama Breeze Tour 2007 Mac McAnally Guitar Pick $53.22 times 6 is $319.52.
5 Cheeseburgers Margaritaville Montego Bay just like the song says 5 @ $13.75 = $68.75
4 Hawaiian Ukes, Farallon Ekoa Ukulele 4 at $1615.00 = $6460.00
3 Fin Hats, Margaritaville Fins Up Shark Hat 3 at $32.95 = $98.85.
2 Tattoos, depending on size and location, 2 @ $175.00 = $350.00.
1 Purple Parrot in a Palm Tree, Canary Island Date Palm Tree I found 1 for $225. You can spend between $1000 and $18,000 for a Macaw. I’m holding steady at $1450.00. Total $1675.00.
