This episode looks at the steadily rising cost of Christmas meals in Spain, where festive food prices have climbed for more than a decade. With an average of €130 per person for Christmas dinner and total holiday spending reaching €800—€100 more than last year—we explore why inflation has pushed the Christmas basket up 57% over ten years. From surging meat and seafood prices to turrón rising nearly 16% in a single year, we discuss how families are adapting and why buying early is becoming essential to keep celebrations affordable.
