My wife buys a real tree every year.

We have 10' ceilings and she buys one that is too tall almost every year.

I end up cutting 1-2' off the bottom and then trimming branches so it will fit in the stand.

I try to tell her if she would buy one that would fit she would save a little money.

The one this year was only about 6" too tall, so I just cut a few branches on the top.

The real tree makes her happy, hard to place a value on a a happy wife, so I go along with it.

$10 tree. Several species of spruce and firs to choose from.
Great when there is no snow.

I like my trees like I like my boobs, fake, large and just a little pointy.

I made a 20ft tree out of two artificial trees. Cost me about $120 a few years back.

Sounds familiar to me too

No tree

I have horrible allergies but it's not Christmas without a tree and that means a REAL one.
