They are grown to be cut down. Buying a once-living Christmas tree does not denude the forests of Wisconsin.<br /><br />Nonetheless, I admire the bargain!lemminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06767103318863906140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10761570.post-1796584501353122392007-01-09T08:51:00.000-06:002007-01-09T08:51:00.000-06:00Bravo and Brava tree bargain hunter-finders... :o)...Bravo and Brava tree bargain hunter-finders... :o)...You are my hero and heroine...AShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18306812116989881072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10761570.post-65357990388818476612007-01-08T21:13:00.000-06:002007-01-08T21:13:00.000-06:00Wife here!

And it comes in 3 parts. Prelit. The artificial tree I grew up with was a big, full tree but you had to assemble it branch by branch. Then add the lights...well, it took many swigs of heavily-laced egg nog to find the cheer in doing all that! Here's to our $10 tree.tommysmommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00387768698632076748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10761570.post-76138055853487699312007-01-08T20:52:00.000-06:002007-01-08T20:52:00.000-06:00The wife and I have this argument every year...
S...The wife and I have this argument every year...<br /><br />Several years ago, we had to buy an artificial tree, due to severe allergies and asthma then suffered by our oldest son. Our oldest has since outgrownthe asthma and allergies, for the most part, so a real live tree would be OK.<br /><br />Then there is the cat to deal with, andthe dog,they love eating live trees.<br /><br />So we have had this $60 artifical tree the last 10 years...I want to get a new artifical tree or at worst start with live trees again...the wife doesn't think we need to buy a new tree, "it looks fine" is what she says.<br /><br />I am usually the frugal one...but the roles are reversed here. I feel that ornaments don't cover up a bare tree...that is just me.<br /><br />Welcome to my world of artifial trees...one advantage, it does beat putting the live tree into a stand and struggling with it.John Burzynskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01150703086918637288noreply@blogger.com
