Wizzard once sang that they wished it could be Christmas every day, and it turns out that there is a town where this is actually the case.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the town is called Santa Claus and it's located in Indiana, and it all began when the town tried to open a post office.
How did this lead to daily Christmases?
Well, it's because the town was originally called Santa Fee, but this had the potential to create some confusion when it came to postage because there was already a town called Santa Fe in the state.

The townspeople then had to put their thinking caps on to think of an alternate name that everyone was happy with.
As you can imagine, this was no mean feat, but the answer eventually came one Christmas eve when someone heard sleigh bells.
Naturally, this prompted them to shout out, 'it’s Santa Claus', while everyone else was discussing potential names in the town church.
Incredibly, this accidental name suggestion stuck, and the town has been known as Santa Claus ever since.
The townspeople then ran with the Christmas theme, and it wasn't long before more names were changed to stay in line with it.
Now, there are streets in Santa Clause called things like Silver Bell Terrace, Candy Cane Lane, Reindeer Circle, and even Prancer Drive.
The fire trucks in the town - which has a modest population of around 2,500 people - also have festive names: Rudolph, Dasher and Blitzen.
There's also a residential community called Christmas Lake Village.
Yes, we know, it sounds like something straight out of a Hollywood movie, but it is very much a real place, and we imagine it has acquired some new residents thanks to its name change.
But while it is Christmas every day in Santa Claus, as you can imagine, when it is actually the holiday season, the town gets even busier.
This is for a hilarious reason too - its post office.
As we all know, children love writing letters to Santa Claus every year, and this means that every December, thousands upon thousands of letters arrive from children hoping to be on the nice list.
Pat Koch has been looking after these letters for decades and told the Guardian that they cover just about every subject imaginable.
She said: "We just sit there and laugh and cry. We get letters from children that say 'we learned to use the potty', and from others who tell us they have stopped sucking their thumb. We get every kind of letter imaginable, we really do."
