Post; How much is your christmas tree?


At work were sell 7-8foot trees for €35 and 6-7foot for €30.
Stand fo €12 €20 €30.

And you can see a carity Santa for €10


But an artifical tree 5foot your talking at least €150.

Ours stays in our garage most of the year (artificial) until December. Probably about $100.

Its not got the same feel as a real tree but it saves on mess.

Nothing

Pine or spruce from my own property or from my father-in-law's property.

When I read that I thought of that old Land Rover Discovery commericial. I don't know if they played it outside of the US. But It shows a man and his son going Christmas tree shopping. They go to one of those regular Christmas tree stands and they can't find a tree they like. So the man jumps in his Land Rover Disco and drives out to the middle of no where and finds this huge 15ft+ high Christmas tree. The best part was they don't cut it down or anything. The boy looks at it, smiles, and they get back in their Discovery and leaves.

Do you remember the Nissan patrol add.

An Ozzy doing stuff on a farm and different bad things happen, and at the end of each he says 'bugger'.
