    I bought a 6ft pre lit tree last year from Argos (it was about £50) and it is beautiful. I HATE putting lights on with a passion so always wanted a prelit one. Last year was the first year ever I actually enjoyed dressing the tree :D

    Anyone bought a fibre optic one? Do they come in just plain or are they always multi coloured? I want a 6ft tree too!

  • B&Q are doing 5ft 6 pre-lit trees for £14.98 - bargain I thought.
    Its nice to be important but more important to be nice!
  • sainsburys have reduced a lot of the decorations to half price. This includes pre lit christmas trees now £25 not sure if they are 5 or 6 ft.

    I bought a 6ft fibre optic one from Argos last year. The tree is nice but the light was awful. If you had it on during the day you would hardly have known it was switched on - and at night it didn't have that glow that Christmas trees usually have. I'm keeping the tree this year but leaving the fibre optic light switched off. I've bought fairy lights instead.
