Did Lowes send anyone else a tree to plant?

[kaylie]

Or do we fall into a special category of people who spent so much there this year that it merits the planting of a tree?

[auntie]

You are the special snowflake.

[boiler717]

You must be super special!

[kaylie]

This is not a happy kind of special. I hope someone else gets one in the next few days so I don't feel like such a D&R freak. Technically it was addressed to H...

I want a free tree

[sabelis]

I would take a free tree.. I'm pretty sure that would light the fire under me to get the ugly pine tree cut down and replace it.

Awesome! Yay for free trees! Although I'm sure I'd take issue with the genus/species. Lowes doesn't sell anything on my tree "wish list".

Colorado Blue Spruce? We're in SE Pennsylvania. I'm not really sure what to do with it since our entire yard is covered in 6'' of snow.

I could use a tree. Our yard only has 1. Plus an overgrown rhododendron.

I'm shocked that we didn't also fall into the special Lowes Loves You and Trees spending category. This is what we get for buying the electrical stuff at HD.

Also...treedimensional - I totally butted into a conversation between two ladies in an public bathroom to tell the one of them that actually real trees are environmentally sound. (she was saying that she was getting a fake tree because she thinks it's weird to be all "safe the rain forests!" and then cut down a Christmas tree.)

This was entirely due to you. I couldn't help myself.

Okay that's a nice tree, LOL. We don't have much spruce here. It's not a tree for hot, humid climates. Although I do have a blue spruce in MY backyard. It's my only conifer.

Wawa, I did this at lowes a few years ago. Ths woman thought she was soooo much better than people who bought real trees bc we obviously don't care about the environment. I explained to her that real was actually better.
