The price of partridges, pear trees and turtle doves have spiked, pushing the total cost of items mentioned in the carol “The Twelve Days of Christmas” above $100,000 for the first time.

The 364 items repeated across all the song's verses would cost $101,119, an increase of 4.4 percent over last year, according to the annual Christmas Price Index compiled by PNC Wealth Management.
