Handy tip OP.

Plant a some christmas tree baubles in your back garden in January and they'll grow into fully decorated christmas trees in time for next year.

What about werewolves, spectres, Fianna Fail councillors and other assorted spooks that inhabit the woods at night time?

How much is an xmas tree in the shop? Cost benefit required.

Last year we went all traditional with a real tree and it was a nightmare. Damn thing was too big, kept falling over, needles piercing me, getting stuck in the carpet, clogging up the hoover. This year we're going all out chav. White and artificial. Be fcuked with tradition!

Those wild fir trees are sprayed with a substance which makes them smell like pig manure when brought inside a drier humidity house for any length of time, to deter robbers.

*disclaimer* May not be true.

25 euro up. depending on the size, colour and the personal who sells you it. You may strike a bargain if the seller is willing to negociate.

The craic is cutting it down and the sense of achievement it brings. then you can to your local pub and tell a great story

Don't do it. They shed everywhere, if you think a regular tree is bad you ain't see nothing. The ones you buy must be treated with something.

Also, for regular trees if you can keep the bottom of the trunk damp/wet (like standing in a bucket full of wet rags or sand) it helps with the shedding problem. Nothing like a real tree, just not worth robbing them.

Pull up beside one of those fellas that sells them on the side of the road. Stick one in the back of the car and race off at high speed if ye want some craic.

Wild trees are very difficult to hunt. I wouldn't recommend it. Can be a very dangerous activity...

Came up to my ma's yesterday, and seen a big box in the hallway. A big pre decorated Christmas tree in it.

Why would anyone get a pre decorated Christmas tree? Takes the fun out of decorating it.

She then tells me she paid 100 euro for it! Since when does a Christmas tree cost 100 euro??

Is it a magic Christmas tree!! Does it come with presents already parked under it? FFS!

Go shoplift a plastic tree instead, it'll last longer.

Not as much craic though. You clearly haven't thought this through.

Also, that's pretty good grammar.
