THAT'S CRAZY! THE HO, HO, HO'S GET MORE FOR CHRISTMAS THAN THE WIVES DO!

Apparently it pays to be naughty rather than nice.
Men spend more than twice as much on their mistresses at holiday time as they do on their wives, according to a survey by AshleyMadison.com, a self-described "infidelity service."

The typical cheater spends around $60 on his wife and $125 on his mistress, the survey says.

As for what that money buys, the three most popular gifts for wives, in descending order, are perfume, bath and body products, and gift cards.

The mistress gets the better deal: she's likely to receive jewelry, followed by lingerie and a spa day.

The survey elicited 28,994 responses in 2006 and 143,717 in 2010.

Husbands appear to be getting more Scrooge-like when buying a present for their wives.

In the five years since the service has been tracking Christmas expenditures, the amount that men spend at Christmas on their wives has dropped 22%. (The mistress expenditure figure has stayed about the same.)

In 2006, guys spent $77 on a gift for their wife and $126 on a gift for their mistress.
