So, how much did you pay for your Xmas tree?

[Mark J]

What some places charge for Xmas trees around here is crazy, although they supposedly donate some of the proceeds to Boy Scouts, Church, etc. We went to Home Depot for the first time this year and only paid $30 for a nice 8' tree. Not bad considering all the lots around here charge $70-$85 for the same tree. So what did you pay this year?

No tree here, only a screen-saver which changes to a crackling fire

The life of a bachelor!

We drive out to Lindale to a nice tree farm. The one we picked cost 42.50

Festivus pole, home depot $10

My neighbors don't have any trees anymore.

 

[Robert.B]

paid about $80 I think, but its a big plastic number so it will last a good while and its one less tree a year to feel my wrath. Plus with my cat and a real tree he'd have pine needles from one end of the house to the other!

$75 for a nice 8' douglas fur...

Just got home from dinner, my neighbors have a nice new christmas oak tree, but my yard is lacking.

Free for the last 10-12 years. One of my good friends owns a 300 acre farm in Kentucky & we go down every year for dinner/ cook-out/ bbq/ drink fest/ knife googling/ tree cutting get together. This will probably be the last year because all of our children have flown the coop (rock star / housewife / world explorer). But the tree will be the only thing that will be missing out of the above events . . .
Be safe.

$75 for a nice 8' douglas fur...

Those are everywhere, here in Oregon, for around 20 bucks

We haven't gotten ours yet. Going out tomorrow to do it

$5 after Christmas for a 7ft brand new, brand name tree.

The boss hooked me up this year...so I got mine free. Even got to cut it myself .

 

[Bob W]

About $35 for a nice farm-raised tree from the nearby Big-R (a chain of ranch supply stores).

First time in a while that trees have been available for sale locally. The last few years we've gone a tree stand in Pueblo. They always have beautiful trees but they cost significantly more. Plus the price gas to drive to Pueblo and back with a truck.

 

[timcsaw]

Free. Blue spruce. My father planted a bunch years ago.

[Rugger]

No tree. I'm a grumpy bachelor.

 

[Relayer]

I don't plan on buying a tree, but I get the feeling that the wife ill force the issue, so I voted for $10-$30. Actual will be the Lowes $19.95 special, if anything.

 

[DaPro]

$35 tree about 3 years ago, Pre-lit and slim

 

[heavy_-j]

$17 bucks for an eighteen footer! ....just had to cut it down ourselves....
