I don't know, everyone wants to have a Christmas, I think people who can't afford a tree this season are going to be feeling very bad.

I buy mine from a church, I'm sure they'd give out one for free if someone was struggling.

Maybe I should see if I can prepay for some trees for anyone struggling.

Sure, but what's more important if you have limited money available? A tree or a meal (hopefully with leftovers)?
