[QUOTE="kris, post: 22359, member: 74"] <span style="color: #3333FF">yes, really lol. this past christmas i decided it was time to bite the bullet & invest in an artificial tree. real trees here in florida are prohibitively expensive....at least for us & besides ~~~ i'm hideously picky about my trees. i like them huge ~~~ & i do mean HUGE lol. looked online but it was already november & anything i found remotely acceptable (& certainly not up to my usual standards) was already snapped up. so i decided that slowly but surely i would start squilling money so i could buy one in the fall. of course by this time i had found sites that had high end trees. i went the other day ~~~ just on impulse ~~~ to see what sales might be had on these high end sites. lo & behold i found a 7.5' tree for half off....it's large & looks a lot like my old tree farm trees from jersey. it's not prelit so i also bought lights.....1200 of them HEE. all this for under $300. i'm thrilled. placed the order last night & recieved confirmation. i admit i'll be tempted to put it up & string the lights when it gets here in a few weeks....my family, of course, won't tolerate that. now sarah & i are working on a color scheme & a theme. in jersey it was very victorian & one heartbreak when we moved was all our ornaments were lost in transit. so we will start to rebuild our collection. only 301 days left until christmas!!!! kris [img]:princess:[/img] [img]:princess:[/img] [img]:princess:[/img] [img]:princess:[/img] </span> [/QUOTE]
