Not really; living in an "all electric" house, I have kept track of my electric utility bills for the last 13 years. The cost of my Pacific Power Electricity has increased at an average rate of 2.9% per year, which I find quite reasonable.

Mine is a lighted 2 foot green ceramic tree with white on the tips to look like snow. Multi colored bulbs light it up. My dear mom made it in the '70's when we took ceramic classes together. With three cats in the house it's perfect, and a wonderful memory of mom.

It looks more natural even if it is a fake free. It also goes better with the white lights. There is just a certain feel to a green tree v.s a different colored tree.

No tree. No mess. No work putting it up and taking it down. No kids at home anymore. Christmas at someone else's house.

Artificial because it's easier, and definitely cheaper. We have had the same articial tree for about 10 years. I refuse to pay $100 or more for a real Christmas Tree. We stopped buying real Christmas trees when it cost us $50 for one. Now the Christmas trees are $100 or more.

I really would love a real tree, but have learned to love artifical trees to keep alergies under control.

It's jumped so much from last year. I retired recently after nearly 45 years at company but might have to work part time just to make ends meet. So unfair to the elderly, and poor who have a hard time deciding what's most important for survival. Food, shelter, medications or heat. Corporate greed.
ReplyI have oil stoves & oil is over $5 a gal.!!
ReplyMy C.N.G. bill increased 105% over last December. Yikes !
ReplyYes it's costing quite a bit more to heat our home this year. PP&L obviously raised their rates.
