    Who's putting their xmas tree up this weekend?

    Just noticed our local shop has lots of trees in stock today ( SinterKlaas on the 5th)

    Not sure whether to buy a live one or go for plastic this year.

    Plastic. More environmentally friendly. And we can't afford a real one.

      I have a live one in the conservatory & the black fake one in the games room, neither will be going up this weekend. Maybe next Sunday.

            Maybe...

            On Saturday 1 and 8 December 2012, we will have Christmas trees for sale at IKEA Gateshead. Pick up a real tree for just £25 and take home a £20 voucher to spend after the holidays. We will also provide a tree recycling service for your tree 6 - 13 January 2013.

              We usually have a real one in the dining room and a fakey in the living room.

              But last year we went to the garden center to buy the tree with the kids and there was a fakey 6 footer on sale. I knocked them down on the price even more as it came without the box. I think we got it for £40 from £200.

              A nice real tree was costing around £40-50 free delivery and collection.

              The living room tree was bought on new years day 5 years ago and got it for about £20 and its a lovely tree but the box is a bit battered.

              Kids want the trees up this weekend

                I'm trying to find a fake one with fibre optic lights.

                Real one is not a good idea with the NorPusses around.

                  Just done it, although I won't put the balls and streamers on for a while.

                  I have a 6 foot fibre optic tree which constantly changes colours.
