Shopping for a Christmas tree

Today was the day that we decided to go out and find the perfect christmas tree for our home. Now being a savvy shopper, I of course will not just go to one place and grab the first one I like, so we decided to drive around. First up we stopped by a lot in UPTOWN Gig Harbor, got out,and saw the first charlie brown looking tree was priced at $54, looked at 2 others and instantly got back into out car and said NO WAY! Then we drove over to Rite Aide, Qfc, and ACE Hardware, all were moderately priced, but there was no one there to help us, cut the bottom down, or answer any questions, so we decided to go somewhere else. We then went to HARBOR GREENS, a natural food store located in Gig Harbor. Right away we saw a lot of seemingly happy tree shoppers all being assisted, with the smell of fresh kettle corn in the air we were drawn over to the tent in themiddle of the lot. We were instantly greeted with a smile and was offered a big cup of fresh hot cider for only $1, and was given a free cup of fresh kettle corn that was being made right in front of us to munch on while we browsed. Already we were happy and felt welcomed. We were then told that in the back on the patio they had even more trees to check out, and there she was....a lush, full, vibrant Douglas Fir marked for $25. After very little debate, we decided this was going to be our tree. They cut the bottome down for us and tied her down to the roof of our car. When we went inside to pay, we were surprised to see out tree was rung up for only $20! The sale price of $25 listed was actually even less! Very happy with our choice of location to shop! Great environment, great service, great food/drink, and wonderfully taken care of fresh trees for us to choose from. Huge variety too! Hope this helps any locals decided on where to go and not to go for their tree this year! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
