Default Where to buy Xmas tree a week before Xmas?

Our main tree is a fake one. I usually buy a real tree for a second area in the house. Usually get one at Home Depot for cheap a couple of weeks before Xmas. I must have waited too long and they had nothing left on the weekend.

Can anyone recommend a lot that would have some selection of trees left this week? Im just south of downtwon.

The Home Depot on 130 ave. still had a large selection on saturday. I would check the big box stores around town and more than a few should have some left.

A Christmas tree a week before Christmas? Doesn't seem like that big an issue... A Christmas tree in June might be harder...

5 bucks plus a little bit of walking and you're good to go!

There is a huge lot(s) on Sarcee trail and on either side of Richmond rd in the sw. One on the side of Canadian Tire and the other next to that apartment building close to the Boston Pizza. Should try those.

They always have a huge cache of them at Macleod and Elbow where Bonzai waterslide used to be. Right next to the 7 to 11 Carwash, down the hill from London Drugs, Kitty corner to the old bottle depot, right near Studio 82 across from the Heritage LRT station.

Fish creek park, take a handsaw and let the cover of night be your friend.

The tree you cut down may be blocking some bodies view.

I second this. I did it for the first time this year and it was an awesome experience.
