The last time we spoke about Christmas trees at Dollar Tree, they were 8" tall and came packed two for $1.00 USD. That was in 2020.

The old days

Well, I hope you stocked up then, because you can't get those anymore… certainly not at that price!

What you can get now is a pack of six Christmas trees for $1.50 USD. The label simply says "Christmas Trees"; the receipt says "bottle brush trees." I picked up the green trees with snow; they also make metallic silver and gold trees.

You get three trees that are 2½" from top to base bottom, and three trees that are 3½" tall. The bases are ¾" in diameter, and ¼" thick. (The trees easily tip over and could use larger and/or heavier bases.)
