We bought ours at Dee's Nursery in Oceanside and spent $55 on a 7 foot. I thought that was a great price and actually less then last year.

Re: Christmas Trees are sooo expensive this year!!

i know!!! this is one of the reasons we're considering getting a fake tree this year. last year the place we went to was like $55! my parents used to grow and sell christmas trees so i know what they take to grow, but that was a little rediculus! we figure if we get a fake one and spend $200 on it, it'll pay for itself after a couple years...

Re: Christmas Trees are sooo expensive this year!!

We had sticker shock when we were looking at trees this year, too.

We got ours at Giordano's in West Hempstead. We got a rather large (almost 8' and very full) tree for $73. Chat Icon Their prices ranged from $45 - 75. They have really nice trees, though, and they're all standing up so you can see them well.

HD prices weren't much better - actually more expensive for what we wanted, though a bit cheaper overall. We decided we'd rather support a smaller business, so we bought at Giordano's.

Prices (and the trees themselves) looked very reasonable at Home Depot.

We live in suffolk, but got ours for $35. It was about 8 feet and we had them cut it down to about 6 feet so it would fit in our apt!

Re: Christmas Trees are sooo expensive this year!!

we bought our fake one for $29.99 at the harrow's going out of biz sale last year. it is a fake, VERY full but it is one of those "thin" trees b/c we don't have the room right now for a typical full/round one. it is pre-lit though which is my FAVE part about it!! pre-lit is the best Chat Icon

i really should take a pic of it to post - it is so pretty with our ornaments on it Chat Icon
