12 days of Xmas

[TheTov]

How many presents in total would you receive in the 12 days of christmas song???

[Muffet]

12 plus 11 plus.....plus 1 = 78

[JackDanielsU]

364 presents

On the first day she receives just the partridge in the pear tree
On the second day along with the 2 turtle doves, she gets another partridge in a pear tree

On the second day of Christmas, my true love sent to me
Two turtle doves
and a partridge in a pear tree

and that continues all the way till the 12th day..

well thats my take on it anyway..Muffets answer can also be correct

[halfwit]

I agree with jackdaniels. In total 364 presents are delivered.

[dzug]

It also depends on whether for example you count ten maids a milking (or whatever it is) as 10 presents or one. Comes to a lot more than 364 if the former.

and if the partridge in the pair tree is two presents..

The Partridge and the Tree :D

[NiceCupOfTea]

Oooh, never had that take on it before. I always just though one set of things was delivered on each day, not all of them. How much would all that cost? Go on, work it out someone....

Here's congrats to JackDanielsU and (no) halfwit. I should have thought about the words a bit better. I did feel envious of the receiver, but no longer.
