We got an awesome deal on a Christmas tree by being too late to pick any of the ones that anyone else wants. We got it at the Fort Collins Nursery, where Mom likes to go because they are so nice there, and they were indeed really, really nice. They only had about 10 or 12 trees left, and they were all really tall and expensive, and maybe a bit sparse or lopsided on some. Since it was so late, though, the guy told us that he just wanted to get rid of them, and although the sign just said some % off, basically we should just make him an offer. He offered to sell us a $160 tree for $50, and said he could cut it shorter if that was a problem. Instead we got a $120 10-ft tall tree for $40, and I bet he would have sold it to us for $30 if I'd had the guts to ask for that. I mean, what's he going to do, save it til next year?This is the biggest tree we have ever had. Here's Brent trying to put something on the top of it and getting heckled:

What a deal. You didn't even have to cut it down.
