9/10ft Artificial Christmas Tree

Have finally had enough of clearing up after a real tree and would like a good realistic artificial tree for Christmas 2006. Hoping to pick one up for under £200 maybe in the sales if I am lucky. Anyone have any idea where I should start looking?

    Haven't had any luck so far. Tried Argos, Homebase, B & Q, Debenhams, John Lewis but all seem to be around 6/7ft. Whilst googling, I am able to find the right size of tree but they are all too expensive. I'll just keep looking and maybe I'll be lucky otherwise it will be a real tree again and all the pine needles to sweep up!

    Could keep an eye on ebay as people take them down for this year and find they have no where to store them for a year!

    Our local Homebase were doing further reductions on their trees today and i guess they also had another 10% off for 10% day!
