Real or Fake- Christmas Trees that is

[zappaFREAK]

For my entire life we have had real trees. I always cherished going and picking one at the farm. 2 years ago my wifes allergy doctor said we need a fake tree. We went and got a descent one for 300 bucks! I felt ok as the worst part is having to put the lights on and the fake had built in lights. Year 2 and some of the lights do not work!!
