I'm speaking figuratively, of course, because we all know Santa Claus is satanic.
What I mean to say is that I've scored a great deal on a wholesale purchase of some very nice toys. My friend Vincent "Little Vinnie" Amichi happened to have lucked into a truckload of these items, but had to liquidate them at a distressed price, due to some unfortunate gambling debts he has accrued.
So I bought a pallet of fifty of these.
I plan to give them to the daughters of my Mexican and Salvadoran neighbors, as well as the daughters of the migrant farm workers who toil just South of here in and around Half Moon Bay.
I know, I know, it's not good to just give people things they haven't worked for, but Christmas is coming up, and the price I got was so good, I just couldn't resist. Also, the Bible seems to imply that under certain circumstances, giving things to poor people for free may not be totally and completely analogous to flushing your money down the toilet:
I doubt that I'll be able to find recipients for all fifty of these, so if you have any little pupusas on your shopping list, I'd be happy to sell you a few for just a little more than my cost. The price would be $28.99 each, plus shipping. That's less than half what they're going for on Amazon!
Remember, friends, a lot of these poor immigrants probably can't afford Christmas presents for their daughters, and by golly, this is a gift that will help those little girls learn valuable life skills that will hopefully keep them off the dole.
Yes, yes, it's best if women don't work outside the home, but the way I see it, a little brown lady cleaning hotel rooms for a living is way better than a little brown lady popping out babies and collecting welfare checks!

Acts 20:35
35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
