"another version is he told the father to put the girls' shoes/socks
(it varies) outside - and the next morning there were gold coins in
the shoes/socks. I like to think that is the source of the tradition
of putting gold-foil-covered chocolate coins in the children's
stockings at Christmas."

Hi all,

As kids we always put our shoe in the window and in the morning there was chocolates in it. We did this for about 10 nights before Christmas. My parents are Danish so it must be a tradition there/then!

Thanks for bringing back this memory!!
