Christmas tree prices can vary significantly from block to block. Help us get a sense of the discrepancy - and whether you felt you paid a fair price.
stand
53rd and 11th, New York, NY
5 Feet
$100-110
The price seems high. The price is higher in New York City I imagine due to transportation costs. I know our tree in particular came from Oregon. For comparison, my parents, who live in the central part of PA, got an 8' tree fresh cut that morning for $40. The markup seems a little ridiculous.
Boy Scouts
Roosevelt Island, Main Street, 10044
6 Feet
$50-60
Yes. The scouts did all the work of cutting and transporting. It's a very good tree.
stand
clinton and atlantic Ave, bklyn, ny
7 Feet
$80-90
Brooklyn Terminal Market
83rd St. near Foster Ave, Brooklyn, Ny
5 Feet
$20-30
Defintely. I cut my own in NJ last year and paud $55 for a scrawnier tree. Considering how this one had to be trandported and stored whereas the oone I cut was only raised by the farmer but not even cut, this is a great price.
stand
81 st & 37 ave, queens ny
8 Feet
$60-70
Yes!
Stand
56th street and 9th avenue, NY, NY
3 Feet
$40-50
I think my husband got ripped off. Although he did purchase it with a stand.
Location of the vendor = higher pricing.
Do sympathize with the fact vendor has to be outside in frigid weather for about a month.
Love this survey!
Garden Shop
Sussex, NJ
8 Feet
$30-40
Yes! Great price and the kids working there were amazing. I would go back just to see some kids who still have good work ethic.
Brooklyn Christmas Tree
Free Delivery in Brooklyn - never saw the tree before it was in my house
7 Feet
$70-80
Yes! Brookly Christmas tree charges 11/foot and came with free delivery if I mentioned the website. It arrived on a sunday morning at 8:30am. My son and I were still in our pajamas, A very nice woman, the daughter of the french canadian tree farmer, carried it into our apartment. Its A Perfect Tree and we were decorating by 8am. If I'd bought it on the corner I would have spent about 125, had to get it home myself, and would have spent an hour picking it out. This one is the most beautiful we've ever had! And it came to us.
Tree farm
Boonton, nj
6 Feet
$60-70
Not considering we had to cut it down ourselves! Thought that would make it cheaper
stand
Brroadway and 207, New York, ny
5 Feet
$50-60
Yes it was a fair price. The stand also has fancier trees, I do not know the name of the tree, those were into to $70's. I feel that was too high priced.
Whole Foods
808 Columbus Avenue New York, NY
8 Feet
$50-60
I think this was a very fair price. And the tree is huge. Much cheaper than all the years we were buying them from corner vendors that would pop-up after thanksgiving. I do miss chatting with the Quebecers down from Canada... The other plus, 5 new trees will be planted in its place.
Stand
East 8th St and Caton Ave Brooklyn, NY
6 Feet
$30-40
Last year, a smaller tree cost us $60 in Park Slope! Almost half the price ($35) for a bigger tree is a great deal. Just took a little sleuthing to find the right spot.
Stand
McGuiness Blvd and Greenpoint Ave, Brooklyn
6 Feet
$60-70
The Sign said 6ft trees for $24.95, but when we picked our 6ft tree and it was cut and wrapped in the plastic net, he told us it was $66 in front of our 4 year old.
We had $60, so we gave him that and begrudgingly walked home:(
stand
234 Congress Street brooklyn, ny 11201
6 Feet
$60-70
I thin it could have been five dollars cheaper, we haggled the $65 to $60.
It's six feet, but just- and very skinny!
stand
Bleecker Street and LaGuardia Place, New York, NY
4 Feet
$50-60
I think I paid a lot for my tree, and I know I could have gotten one cheaper (even closer to my apartment). I paid more for a two reasons:
1 - I bought the tree from a couple of Quebecois kids who seem to come down every year. They're nice people and an independent business, and I like them.
2 - The trees I get from these people are fresh and really beautiful. I know they will last the season and they smell great.
stand
W 181st St and Fort Washington Ave, New York, NY 10033
4 Feet
$40-50
The price seemed fair. We went for a Douglas fir.
Growing the tree, transporting the tree.
