    LED christmas tree - pre-lit

    Yeah... because I was a wee bit grumpy about the situation, it got all boxed up before photos could be taken. Just look at the picture in the sales link, and reconfigure it in your mind to look somewhat crappier - and you've got a good idea of what I was dealing with. I'm stumped about the fact...

    I feel your pain. As does my wife. And, well, pretty much the rest of the world.

    I totally get it. It isn't so easy being me. :-)

    Pretty! Of course my family has enough ornaments for about six trees, so THAT isn't a problem. And if I could bring myself to buy another product with incandescent lights, this would be somewhat easy. And then there's the nagging issue about size. BUT! Thrilled to see how great that turned out...

    Crazy, right? I'm finding the same thing. Here I am, poking around AFTER Christmas, and there are none on sale it seems. What the heck is going on? It wasn't long ago when I thought $250 seemed a bit "expensive" for a plastic tree. Regardless of price, where are the super-high quality ones...

    Well, now we're on the other side of Christmas... and as promised, I'm back to tell you how things went. Not so great. The HS tree will be enjoying an all-expenses paid trip back across the country. I left a detailed review on their site about my dissatisfaction - and I see that my review...

    If we're slipping into the cooked animal flesh smell category, I'm simply going to have to go with bacon. But if brisket floats your boat, I'm in full support of your olfactory party.

    Is there anything better than the smell of freshly-cut pine? I sure hope my new plastic tree comes with a can of that smell! :sigh:

    OK... well... finding thrills OFF of the 'net is a whole different story. As I'm afraid of the real world, I'll have to live vicariously through intrepid folks like you. Tree-killer!

    You've managed to find something more interesting to do besides follow the blow-by-blow excitement of this thread?! I find that hard to believe. You aren't going to find more thrills anywhere on the 'net. At least not until they figure out how to stream moving pictures or something. Yes, I...

    My earlier posts were WAY the hell better than this. If I were still an admin, I'd be forced to ban myself for banality. But! I appreciate your kind comments. And your service here! Thank you!

    Hey. Voting is closed! Yes, cheaper trees are certainly cheaper. More expensive ones, not so much. I have no interest in a 6' tree. Yay for the spike link!

    OK! Thanks all for voting. The polls are now closed. If I'd taken my typical advice, I'd have purchased both. But because "reduction of inventory" is the whole point here, I just bought the one. Not surprisingly, I bought the expensive one. I decided on that one for the following reasons: 1...
