What type of Christmas tree real or artificail do you prefer

[boogiejo]

I prefer the real tree because it looks more beautiful, makes the house smell good & makes the house more cozy. But since my kids are no longer in the home I just put up a small artifical one now which is alot more easier to put up after the holiday is over.

I prefer a live tree but use an artifical. It used to be you could get a tree in a lot for 10-15 dollars. Now they start at about $30.00

I will not purchase a real tree until I move in a house so for now it's artifical.

artificial are great because you can use them year after year  and don't have to water them either.

i prefer a real tree, but, five years ago i moved in my place and it is soooo small that i don't even really have room for a tree at all, so i compromise and put up a 2 1/2 foot minia :Dture tree that is artificial.  got to stay in the spirit some how.

ain't it the truth? The last live tree I bought was $85.00 and it came to my eye level....I am 6'2 and I like a tree that I have to look up to...at least an inch above my head...and since they seem to charge by the foot...that comes to some real moola coming outta my pocket for something that I'm going to kick to the curb within the next 30 days....

yes..30 days...all the work that is involved in decorating.. I plan on enjoying it more than a few days..I'm going to get my money's worth out of it...

I personally never had a artificial tree but, my neighbor have one and I like it. I actually like the real christmas trees better because of the smell and I enjoy decorating them since I was a kid. However, I may go with a artificial tree this year and they are about $50 where I work.

i'm used to using artificial trees. it can last for years and less maintenance.

I want a real  christmas tree but cant have one because of my extreme allergies.  Even the plastic tree has to be packed to keep dust from accumulating on it while being stored.

My point exactly. Never had a real tree, maybe one year but no time soon

[drpybutt]

Would rather have real , but like you, my nephew has allergies, as well as asthma. Have to settle for artificial.

I don't really care as long as i have a Christmas tree, that is decorated nice and that i have some presents underneath it!

[zahiracruz]

the real tree is too messy!! i prefer artificial

[Tinachelune]

Artifical all the way for me.  I hat always cleaning up the messy pine needles and having sap all over the place.  Besides, having small children who would probably eat the pine needles that fall is more than enough for me to go artifical.
