Holiday Time Madison™ 6.5' White Pine Christmas Tree with Multicolour Lights: $32 (RSP: $47.98)
I've always loved white Christmas trees. When I was looking for a big pink tree, I came across this one...I was shocked the price was so low! All of the other ones have them for over $100.
The locator said there was limited stock at a nearby Walmart, so I just had to check it out. Turns out they only had one...the display model.
They only offered me 10% off, which I thought was pretty crappy. But I called the other one that was supposed to have stock, and they said they didn't have any more so that clinched it.
It didn't come with a box, and when I got home, I saw that a lot of the lights had already burned out...if I find one still in box, I might try to return this one. Though I don't know if they'd take it back.
I also saw a 7 ft one for $199! I don't know why the price jumped up that much, except I suppose that one was much fuller looking. Still, I didn't think it was worth 4 times the price for only a half foot more.
That one was also all white lights...it looked classic, but I found it boring. I think the multi coloured one I got looks much nicer. It reminds me of sprinkles on a cupcake!
Online I saw there's a version with blue lights:
It looks quite pretty too...I saw this picture posted on walmart.ca:
It's definitely wintery! Not sure which one I would have bought if this one was still in stock. They're both beautiful in different ways, but I think I still prefer the one that reminds me of sprinkles.
The white one:
All of the other white trees they had in box had white lights. They had 2 4 ft ones left, but they would have been around $29....so only $3 less than the one I got. That totally didn't seem worth it! Mine had the best value for sure. Found a picture of it on walmart.com:
The best part....I used my gift cards, so this was basically free!
Though I saw in the past, it would have been $12.25 if any were still around after new year's...that would have been such a steal! I'll be kicking myself if I end up seeing that deal later on.
