About Us: christmasvacationusa.com – Where Holiday Spirit is a Year-Round Celebration
Welcome to christmasvacationusa.com, your premier online destination for officially licensed Christmas Vacation merchandise! For decades, the iconic film National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation has been more than just a movie; it’s a beloved ritual, a hilarious mirror held up to the beautiful chaos of the holiday season, and a timeless reminder that the perfect Christmas is often the most imperfect one. We founded this company out of a simple, passionate belief: the joy, laughter, and relatable madness of the Griswold family shouldn’t be confined to just a few weeks in December.
Our story begins not in a corporate boardroom, but in a living room, much like yours. It’s Christmas Eve, the tree is brilliantly over-decorated, the house is buzzing, and Clark Griswold is preparing to unleash his “full-blown, four-alarm holiday emergency.” As we laughed for the hundredth time at Cousin Eddie’s gift of a jelly-of-the-month subscription and felt a pang of sympathy for the poor, electrocuted cat, we realized something. This movie isn’t just entertainment; it’s a shared experience. It’s the soundtrack to our own family gatherings. We saw a spark—a twinkling, slightly frazzled spark—of an idea. What if we could help fans celebrate this unique holiday spirit every single day?
That spark ignited christmasvacationusa.com. We are a team of dedicated fans, first and foremost. We are the ones who quote the lines, who understand the profound importance of a good-quality non-caloric, silicone-based kitchen lubricant, and who believe that the Jelly of the Month Club is indeed the gift that keeps on giving. Our mission is to channel the film’s unique blend of nostalgia, humor, and heart into high-quality products that allow you to wear your fandom with pride and decorate your world with a touch of Griswold flair.
What We Stand For
- Authenticity & Quality: Every product in our collection is officially licensed. This means we work directly with the rights holders to ensure our designs are authentic, respectful, and capture the true essence of the film. We don’t settle for cheap imitations. We carefully select materials and partners to ensure our t-shirts are soft and durable, our ornaments are well-crafted, and our home goods bring a smile to your face season after season.
- Community of Super Fans: When you shop with us, you’re not just making a purchase; you’re joining a family—a slightly quirky, fun-loving family that appreciates a good “Hallelujah! Holy shit!” moment. We love seeing how you incorporate our products into your celebrations. Tag us on social media with your Griswold-inspired light displays or your ugly Christmas sweaters at the company party. You are the reason we do this.
- Year-Round Cheer: While we adore the holiday season, we believe the message of Christmas Vacation—perseverance, family, and finding joy in the chaos—is relevant all year long. Our collection features items perfect for a summer barbecue (showcasing your love for the “funny-looking” squirrel) or a casual Friday at the office. Because sometimes, you just need a little Cousin Eddie wisdom in July.
From our classic “Save the Neck for Me, Clark” t-shirts and our elegant Griswold Family Christmas tree ornaments to the statement-making “Shitter’s Full” doormat, each item is chosen with love and a healthy dose of humor. We are constantly seeking new and creative ways to bring the film to life through our product line.
Thank you for visiting christmasvacationusa.com. We are thrilled to be your headquarters for all things Griswold. Whether you’re shopping for the ultimate fan in your life or treating yourself to a piece of cinematic history, we are here to help you celebrate the spirit of the season, today and every day.
Sincerely,
The Team at christmasvacationusa.com
P.S. If you need us, we’ll be in the attic, watching old home movies and waiting for our Christmas bonus.
