We need a new Christmas tree. My last one the dog pissed on (and tbh i brought it when I was broke so it was a bit... meh anyway). Mrs wants an real tree, which I would normally have no issues with but we're not here for Christmas day. Feel like a real tree is a bit wasted.
DT what would you guys pick? Also who makes good ornaments? Dog pissed on most of those too. And the Kmart ones looked great new but quickly fell apart.
Fake tree 100%
Always had real ones growing up and loved them. The smell, the feel, nothing comes close.
Bought a real one here in Oz once. Our first home, first Christmas.
Never again. Died super quick. Dry as hell. Little to no smell.
Completely not worth it.
We're looking for a new fake one this year and trying to find something of decent quality. Current one has been around for 17 years and needs and update
a quick look online says Myer is probably the best bet. Big W and kmart's offerings look anemic, at least online.
As much as I think Myer is outdated and overpriced......they do stock some quality gear.
Their Christmas range has always been great. I go there every year for Christmas stuff. Usually around Dec 27th-Jan 5th. 😆
