Real tree?

[fluffychicken]

I would like a real tree this year never had one so.. How much is reasonable to pay fora 6ft realtree and when would I be able to put it up?
We usually do the decorations the first week of December so I assume we would have to do the tree nearer Christmas.

They’re about £45 -£65 where we go for one depending on the type.
OH has seen them for 99p in B&Q on Xmas eve before but I’m just not leaving it that late!
Depending on where you put it (away from radiators) they do last quite a while if you have a stand you can add water to. Can’t remember what ours is called but it’s a German name if that helps?!
We usually get ours around the 16th

OH says the stand is called Krinner

The last couple of years we've had a real tree from Ikea. They have been £25 each, but you get back a £20 voucher to use in store in the new year.

We’ve had them from Ikea too. However, the last 2 years they’ve sold out on day 1 & not re-stocked. So we’ve had them from Asda for about £25.

We are in Edinburgh and buy a Caring Christmas Tree, usually around £50 for a six foot. 12 days before and 12 days after seems to work well for a real tree. Still has its needles in this space of time!

Also in Edinburgh but we buy from Debbie’s , around £40 for a 5-6 ft Nordman for , £50 for a 6-7 ft. I always do 12 days before and after, I’m very strict about it the Nordmans are great and lose very few needles

We pay 25.00 for 6 foot direct from tree farm. You go and cut it down yourself.
This is 1st year we are doing all fake trees.

Thanks for all the replies I've had a look and there's a local farm that sell trees so I'm going to have a look.
