Like other Christmas, Christmas present delivery service by Santa Claus is busy these days.
During some days before Christmas, we sometimes see men in Santa Claus costume with bags of present on streets. The Santas deliver Christmas presents to children whose parents order the service.
Pr Pro Co.,Ltd. is a company supplying this service. Its staff have started deliver Christmas presents from December 23 to 25. People booking this service can buy presents or have the company to buy presents. Shipping service ranges from VND35,000 to VND125,000 depending on the distance. The company can deliver presents in Nha Trang City and Dien Khanh District.
Bookstores and shops also offer Santa Claus service. Ta Minh Duc, the owner of Mai Phuong toy shop on 2-4 Street, Nha Trang shared that his shop receives about 500 – 600 present delivery orders every Christmas season. This year, he has hired 7 people to wear Santa clothes and deliver presents. They have to do the best as most orders fall on December 22 – 25.
We also find a lot of Santa service offers on Facebook. Tran Thuy Suong, receiving orders from Facebook, said that her Santas deliver present not only in Nha Trang but in Van Ninh District as well. These days, it’s not easy to hire people to do this job.
Christmas season is a time to earn money for young people who dress Santa Claus costume. Doan Trung Duc, a student of Nha Trang University, said that he acted as Santa Claus to deliver presents home for a souvenir on 2-4 Street and earned VND15,000 – VND45,000 for each order. The peakest time is two days before Christmas day and the Christmas day. He can deliver about 15 orders a day this occasion, which gives him a bit of money as well as happiness when giving presents to children.
