It’s turning out to be a pretty rotten Christmas for the Saunders family. New to Edmonton, Canada from Los Angeles, they have no friends, no money and, with the exception of bright-eyed Mary, no Christmas spirit. Worst of all, mom is stranded in L.A. by airline overbookings,so the Christmas shopping duties fall on Dad and the kids: Danny, Brian and Mary.
Things start looking a bit more like Christmas when Brian and Mary find a hoard of cash at the local mall and launch a Yuletide shopping spree…that is, until the crooks who counterfeited the money start chasing them down!
