Cut it off and it’ll do better

YUP, Trees get way cheaper at 5 days before Xmas, LOL

Ralph, this is your wife we’re talking about. She’d get a new one every other week anyway. Fewer people are more Christmas nuts than she is.

At a $100 a tree! NOT!

Glad mine doesn’t need any water, doesn’t shed and can be stored in the attic during the rest of the year.

OK, but can you close the door while you debate this ?? We ain’t heating the world, here.

Artificial trees are more convenient ;)

Maybe it just needs a little love.

those trees you have to tip toe past or they lose needles at every footfall

That would be good except for the undecorating and decorating part. That’s kind of a once a year thing.

One of our neighbors had a dozen trees for sale, but they waited until last week so I don’t think they sold many. There’s a pile next to their house.

Never seen that house-flag before!

Of course the tree isn’t drinking water anymore. That’s what happens when you put it up on July 4.

Cut the bottom of the tree off about 2-3 inches from the bottom.

Charlie Brown Christmas Tree on the flag.

All the good ones have been taken. You’ll never find the perfect tree at this point.
