Quoted from bssbllr:I’ve gotten a live tree for the last 20yrs. Loved doing it. Now the kids are growing the gifts are more necessities like phones and clothes. I put the tree up and it sits there bare till me and the wife decorate it. It’s like the kids don’t really care much so it’s not worth it any more. Probably didn’t help with my situation.
We always used to go cut a tree down, but Alaska trees are whole different animal. Look like charlie brown trees only bigger. After 2 years, we gave up and bought a fake one. Ones that are shipped up are too much or already dying and just not worth it.
