I thought I paid $40 for a +6ft tree last year, but the guy gives me a discount for being a firefighter. It seems expensive for a big overgrown plant, but there is "shipping" and the convenience. I used to get a tree at Union Square and take it home on the subway. One year I got a tree I cut down on the North Fork of LI, and that was $95 for a 7 ft tree. No idea what the costs are affecting how the industry prices them.

Christmas tree prices can vary significantly from block to block. Help us get a sense of the discrepancy - and whether you feel you got a fair price.
