Sentence: Everyone in Stan's family wanted a Wii game system. As he went from store to store trying to find them, he realized that they were in short supply and cost $250.00 each. After that, he found he needed to add controllers and games in order to make them "playable". He was laying out $500.00 for each person and putting extreme mileage on his car, not to mention the time he was spending. As he tried to stay in a festive mood, he started to sing Carols as he drove all over the city. One of his new favorites became "This Wiispreestings, all day in my car, buying gifts, I travel afar. Sears and Nordstom, Best Buy and Walmart followed by the nearest bar."

Etymology: Wii (Nintendo Wii, popular video game system) Spree (engage without restraint in an activity and indulge, as when shopping) Stings (cause sharp or stinging pains or discomfort)

Pronunciation: oh holee nite

Sentence: Oweholynight! The stores are brightly shining, It is the night of getting your money's worth, Long lay those cards in purse and pocket pining, Tills reappear and the soul spent its worth.

Etymology: Owe (be in debt, owe money for goods bought) & O Holy Night (Christmas Eve, the night of Jesus' birth, the reason we celebrate Christmas; the title of a Carol announcing the birth of the Savior)
