Went to 10th and McKean at the advice of PB yesterday and got a fabulous 8-foot tree, very fresh, for $40. The only disappointment: Someone named Robert and not Rocky sold it to us.

Thanks for the tip.

Default Table top tree

Anybody know where I can get a small table top tree? Hubby is recuperating from back surgery so no big tree this year. We usually buy our trees at 3rd and Oregon. They have a big selection but are a bit pricey...

Well, apparently Rocky came with a premium. We paid a bit more for our 8-foot tree. Maybe they reduce the prices as Christmas approaches?

It looks like they got a late start, I saw them there this morning. Just a bit more expensive this year, all trees $30.00. We'll be getting our tree this week.
