[Costco] 50% off Christmas Trees (YMMV)

Deal Link:: https://www.costco.ca/2.28-m-(7.5-ft.)- ... 80030.html
Retailer:: Costco

Regular price was $299.99 in store, it is $199.97 online now. Bought this today at the Heartland location for $149.97. There were still around 4 of them left before closing.

Great tree, very full and self shaped!

Please don't order massive shit like this online this time of year. Courier companies are already backed up from Black Friday 10 days ago with no sign of clearing. Oversize items like these are responsible for clogging up the system. You might not even get something this big by Christmas at this rate.

It's very full and nice but just curious, how painful is it to spread them out?

Can't tell if you are being serious or just trolling.

The $299 in store and this $199 tree are different trees. The $299 in store one is the $399 online one.

It is really easy. No spread out or shaping required. Really heavy though. Solid.

Very entertaining thread, lots of subplots, I especially like the gynecologist.

And I wonder if Costco will drop prices further.

mike, just because you didn’t receive your black Friday bunduru doesn’t mean that the entire system is broken and/or backed up.

At any given time there are thousands of much bigger items being shipped back and forth. Ordering this tree wont change anything.

Tough luck bud, consumers can order what they want and when.

If you have shipping issues with your orders, contact your shipper and or courier.

Are you kidding??
Please say yes

Always buy first...think later

Sharing is Caring - Without people sharing info, these forums would not exist and no one would benefit from it. Don't be selfish.

They really need to show who downvotes so we can find out the mofus is
