Christmas Eve and day you could get an hourly pay upwards of 300 bucks.

DO YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR THE UNIFORM?Yep. A good suit could run you anywhere from $500 to $1000.

HOW MANY DAYS ARE SANTAS NEEDED?
40.

SO WHAT'S THE MOST YOU COULD MAKE FOR THE SEASON?
If you nab a corporate gig or private party on top of the mall hours you can expect to bring in about 10 grand.

  1. A Santa that's still doing a mall gig on Christmas day, could hardly be believable, now could he? Kids would think he's slacking on his real duties.

  3. I could live off 10k for a whole year, that's crazy. Time to gain 100 more pounds and dye my hair and beard white.

  14. If that's real, then I'm buying the suit so I can be a female Santa. No Mrs. Santa shit for me. All she gets to do is bake cookies and sleep with that fat fuck.

  15. If mall Santas make that much, I think they are falsely portrayed on TV. You see, on TV, they are always drunk, broke and homeless.

    I guess I shouldn't always believe what I see on the tube!

    Now I go to find a Santa suit and the nearest mall!
