Just before Christmas, Chris (Jarrod Crooks) loses his job, but he keeps it from his wife Jen (Erin Antilla) which is problematic as his son has asked Santa for a vintage dinosaur like the one Chris had when he was a boy, and that makes it expensive.

So Chris does everything possible to earn the money to buy his son the perfect Christmas gift, the gift he has been longing for, that year’s BIG gift.

The tradition in their family is to put Santa’s name on the tag but because he has worked so hard for it, Chris wants credit for the gift and decides to take it by putting his name on the tag instead of Santa's.

So Santa sends his elves to Chris’s house to relabel the Big Gift to stop him getting the credit and a battle of wills begins between him and Father Christmas.

So who will triumph in this hilarious action-packed Christmas Story.
