On December 9, 1965, A Charlie Brown Christmas first aired on CBS. Despite worries from producers that its slow pacing, jazz soundtrack, and lack of a laugh track would flop, the special became an instant classic. Charlie Brown’s search for meaning in the season, Linus’ heartfelt reading from the Gospel of Luke, and Vince Guaraldi’s unforgettable jazz score struck a chord with millions. The program went on to win an Emmy and a Peabody Award, and for decades it’s been a holiday tradition, reminding us that even a small, scraggly tree can shine with the right spirit.
And just like Charlie Brown’s little tree needed a bit of care to stand tall, your car needs fuel to keep the holiday cheer rolling.
Here’s your Tillsonburg fuel update — no jazz piano required:
- Pioneer: $124.5
- Esso: $125.9
- Shell: $124.6
- Petro Canada: $124.6
So whether you’re skating like Snoopy, stringing lights, or just driving through town with “Linus and Lucy” on the radio, make sure your tank is topped up. A full tank keeps your day merry, bright, and moving forward — just like Charlie Brown finally discovering the true meaning of Christmas.
