Malls now charging $35 or more to see Santa

[ShootSpeeders]

And obozo tells us there is no inflation!!!

Parents fume at Cherry Hill Mall's pricey Santa

nov 16 2015 You better not cry. You better not pout. And, if you want to see Santa at the Cherry Hill Mall, you better have at least $35.
To enter the mall's Adventure to Santa holiday display, visitors must choose packages which range in price from $35 to $50 (marked down from $75), according to the mall's website, and include photos or, for the pricier option, video of the visit with Santa. But there's no sitting on Santa's lap without first paying the entrance fee.

Jesus must be the reason for the season, or not. Capitalism baby, love it or leave it.

This hasn't the slightest thing to do with Obama! This is all human greed. Capitalism has become corrupt.

It reminds me of "The Santa Clause 3" when Jack Frost took over the North Pole and turned Christmas into a money making machine.

Q. This is the first Christmas for our jewelry store. We're hearing conflicting claims about how much business we'll do. Do you have any guidelines for how much of our annual sales we can expect during the holiday shopping season?

A. As with everything else in retailing, there are no guarantees. Competition is so fierce, especially at this time of year, that you can't just open the doors and expect to clear your shelves. The fact that you aren't yet well established also could mean lower than average sales for the season.

All that said, there are some guidelines provided by the National Retail Institute. Nationally, jewelry stores report that 23.8 percent of their annual sales occur during December and 9.2 percent during November--the two biggest months of the year.

Some December sales guidelines for other trade lines: national chain department stores, 15.3 percent; discount department stores, 13.6 percent; apparel and accessory stores, 13.6 percent; electronics stores, 13.4 percent; sporting goods and bicycle shops, 13.5 percent; all retail stores, 10.1 percent.
What percent of sales occur during the holidays?

A great way to lose customers to other malls. They may be rethinking this...

Conservative Santa only cares about the rich kids

He always used to say...Those poor kids are only interested in free stuff

Delenn: Your Government will think twice before engaging a Minbari fleet.

Marcus Cole: They're not *my* government! Back on the colony, Earth was just a place that sent us books and vids, and took 30% of our income. Should have given them the boot years ago!

Comes to mind. He's not MY Lord.

Don't have fireplaces here. And only 3 possible methods of entry. I disabled the guillotine traps which would take his head off though every year.

Sounds like the santa industry believes people are willing to pay that $35

Sounds like a lot for a luxury photo. Economy must be doing alright fir e ough peiple to have that kind of disposable money to spend

 

[Katzndogz]

Santa has to have security. That doesn't come cheap.

 

[mdk]

Those kids need to learn to pick themselves up by the coal filled stockings if they wish to bask in Santa's presence.

 

[guno]

How about they have the baby jesus display in the malls where little christian kids can have a picture taken in the cradle of a nativity scene .

Who wouldn't want to pay $35 so their kid could enjoy the multimedia "Santa Experience"?

Don't you love your kids?

short hills mall is one of the wealthiest malls in the country. what they charge is up to them, idiota. not President OBAMA (are you smart enough to learn how to spell his name, idiota?)

you're the ones who want unobstructed capitalism. well, you got it in short hills. maybe they'd even let you wash the floors of the neiman marcus there if you asked nicely.
