After the visit of the ghosts, Scrooge became a kind, generous, and compassionate person. He transformed from a miserly and selfish man into someone who cared for others, spread joy, and shared his wealth with those in need.

They would have bought them from merchants like Scrooge
Jim Carrey played the role of Scrooge in the 2009 animated film "A Christmas Carol" where he bought Tiny Tim a carousel.

In Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol, Scrooge sends a young boy to buy a turkey on Christmas Day, which he plans to send to the Cratchit's as a surprise. The original passage is as follows:"It's Christmas Day!" said Scrooge to himself. "I haven't missed it. The Spirits have done it all in one night. They can do anything they like. Of course they can. Of course they can. Hallo, my fine fellow!" "Hallo!" returned the boy. "Do you know the Poulterer's, in the next street but one, at the corner?" Scrooge inquired. "I should hope I did," replied the lad. "An intelligent boy!" said Scrooge. "A remarkable boy! Do you know whether they"ve sold the prize Turkey that was hanging up there -- Not the little prize Turkey: the big one?" "What, the one as big as me?" returned the boy. "What a delightful boy!" said Scrooge. "It's a pleasure to talk to him. Yes, my buck." "It's hanging there now," replied the boy. "Is it?" said Scrooge. "Go and buy it." "Walk-er!" exclaimed the boy. "No, no," said Scrooge, "I am in earnest. Go and buy it, and tell them to bring it here, that I may give them the direction where to take it. Come back with the man, and I'll give you a shilling. Come back with him in less than five minutes and I'll give you half-a-crown." The boy was off like a shot. He must have had a steady hand at a trigger who could have got a shot off half so fast. "I'll send it to Bob Cratchit's!" whispered Scrooge, rubbing his hands, and splitting with a laugh. "He shan't know who sends it. It's twice the size of Tiny Tim."
I think Dickens hopes his reader will be uplifted and inspired by the dramatic alteration Scrooge undergoes in A Christmas Carol. Of course, the question is how it makes you feel.
I can't believe my uncle the cheapskate bought me such an expensive gift. The main character in "A Christmas Carol" is Mr. Scrooge, a grumpy, stingy, cheapskate.
