We use Hilliers most of the time...it isn't because they necessarily have the best of everything but they a) are pretty good with advice & b) their selection is constantly good
I meant to write this last year but forgot...
Normally we would go to a tree farm but there aren't any round here (though there were dozens of places to buy Christmas trees that sprung up afterwards). We got a mail from them early on regarding Christmas trees...they all looked good, so we chose a Nordman, non-drop 6' tree and with the member's discount and our built up points we were able to get this really cheaply
We chose a pick up date and time (no delivery unfortunately, but understandable in the circumstances)
And there it was, just waiting for me in the car park...larger than expected, but fortunately a couple of guys helped me cram it into the car...and its been a great tree even if it had a little gap on one side and we couldn't get it to stand up as straight as we wanted...it hasn't dropped more than a handful of needles since the 17th, so will clearly survive for the 12 days...we have watered it to be sure
So thank you very much Hilliers! read more
