Good Morning America.

Good morning America. Thank you for joining us on this Thursday morning. And we are so excited to be at the Miracle on South 13th Street this morning. There she is. Ginger's there for us in Philly.

Yep, with a lot of lights and a lot of excitement. She's also tracking the Arctic Blast for us. Such a pretty sight there reminds me of my favorite movie as a kid. Miracle on 34th Street.

You just gotta wait till the ending. All is well. And it is just 13 days until Christmas.

Many of us are looking to stretch our money this time of year and we're going to tell you
