Real or Fake Christmas Tree?

[Clint]

Do you opt for a fake or reall tree to celebrate Christmas?

My dad went for a pre-lit Christmas tree from Costco. He loves it. Costco will take the tree back at any time if the lights or something quit working. He got lazy, his least favorite part of decorating a tree was stringing up the lights. The only downside to a fake tree is storing it for the other 11 months out of the year. But he found a storage bag, I think it was called tree caddy or something similar. The bag has a tree stand, you set it up in this stand and when you are finished with the tree you lift the bag up and around the tree and then just roll it away to its closet.

Found it! http://www.treekeeperbag.com/Christmas-Storage-Bags-s/107.htm

Gotta go real but if all else fails and you need a fake, then it's allowed. I just have to have a real one...even if it's only 2ft tall

Marriage has limited me to fake. I grew up with real. This year I'm going to sneak in a big ass real one.

I really don't know what to get this year. Real or fake, probably something very small to put on a table and out of my 14 month old's reach!

Used to real, but the last few years we have had a fake. I miss the smell of a real tree.

We always say we are going to do a real tree but end up putting up the fake tree for convenience. Gonna have to make the real tree happen this year.

As a kid we always had a shitty fake one. Since I got married we always have a real one if I'm home, if not we have a fake one in storage. I like the real ones because they make the house smell nice.

When i was a kid i mostly remember fake. Since i have been with my wife it has been real. My wife runs a home daycare and there will be a small 3 or 4 foot fake for the kids to decorate.

No option for no tree?

Gotta go with a real tree if you can. Usually a family tradition for me to go grab one after thanksgiving with the parents/sister

I have a friend of a friend of a friend's cousin that gets me hooked up with real Christmas trees.

Grew up with a real, but now I do fake, as we are back and forth to NC over the holidays, and are away from both trees for at least a week at a time. If we had real, the tree at one house wouldn't get watered while we where at the other. Both trees have LED lights, so they cost like a couple bucks in electricity over the entire season.

Once we sell the Jersey house, we'll probably go back to real.

Grew up with real but having tall ceilings no way am I strapping a 14'+ tree to my car lol. I do miss the smell

Real my whole life. Had vaulted ceilings in my last place and had about a 9.5 footer one year. Can't font that anymore unfortunately.

I prefer the real Macon, but the wife likes the fake without the mess, when momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy......

Grew up with real, but when my wife and I first moved to KC and had an apartment we went with fake. Now that we have been in our house for the last 10 years we have gone back to real and love the smell.
