I should have researched this earlier on in the year to give this little piece of advice. I had not even started to think of a way that people could get Christmas trees. I have to say that this isn't the cheepest way to have a real tree, but it has a really good spirit with it.
When I say "Real Tree" Most people think, have fun, go into the woods, cut down a good young tree to enjoy through the season. Here is an alternative that I just find so awesome
Burlap bag Christmas tree. If you don't know, when you go and buy larger trees for planting, the roots are wrapped in a burlap ball. If you have a large heavy duty metal bucket, you can place that burlap ball into the bucket and keep it watered. With this, yes it is winter and the ground is cold and whatnot, you can still plant your tree out in your yard after the season is over. You can decorate it and jazz it all up. If anything, you have a new tree in your yard to enjoy for years to come.
When Endrit and I have a house I would like to at least try this and see how it works. Since I am the environmental science person in the family, I thought that I would share.

We have seen these, but for a 4 to 5 foot tree, it is about $100. We have also planted so many trees, we don't have a lot of space left. Dad has been seeing a trailer with some trees on it for $100. They are beautiful....but, not really in the budget right now.
