Charlie Brown Christmas Tree

[hankey01]

I can't believe I missed this. Our local small town harware store carries Charlie Brown Christmas trees! I didn't even know until I saw a pic of my sister's on facebook. Of course I called immediately and they are sold out!! NOOOOOOOOOOO.

If i werent SOOOOO blizzardy outside I would consider driving around until I found one..but not worth the life risk right now (its that bad..my routes home cycled from closed to open highways).

At least my Moosemugs arrived today.

Here is a pic of my sister's tree. JEALOUS!!!!!!

I thought getting it makes you a blockhead?

 

[Mechamaniac]

Do you really have to buy one? I mean, looks like a branch and a couple pieces of 1x4.

 

[hankey01]

Hehe...yeah I think nothing at all would have been a step up from that tree...but a true classic! I have to have one!

Yes I have to buy one...this year at least. Just don't have time or ambition for projects right now (divorce/house selling/packing/drama etc.) and the one project I intended formy boys as a Christmas gift is about 3 weeks late in arriving so that will be priority 1!

Now all it needs is Linus' blanket wraped around the base :lol

Try Sears.com; I just had recieved mine this afternoon, and I had ordered it on Wednesday morning.

 

[Gigatron]

I've had one for the last two years. I don't have a large apartment, so this fits my need, perfectly. I have a powder blue pillowcase that I've been using for Linus' blanket.

It's easily recognizable and gets a lot of compliments. The ladies think it's cute and it kind of eases them into the prop world without being overly dorky. Wait 'till I display it with my Red Ryder BB rifle - that'll up the dork factor :lol.

that's been out a few years i think I seem to have seen one at wal-mart or some place like that. I want it to go next my my Festivus pole...The holiday for the rest of us..lol

You could put your eye out with that thing!

 

[hankey01]

Welll dang...I had no idea these were available at all.

My eyes will be open now at every store I go to!

I'll check sears.ca (canadian site)..but MAN I am sick of paying for shipping.

 

[propologist]

I notice Target.com , ToysRUs.com had them to name a few...there's even mini ones with the blanket...

There's a long story on this product... but in essence, this product originally came out in Christmas 2005 and were an exclusive item for the store Urban Outfitters...that year, the retail price was like $29.95 I think...but quickly sold out-- on Ebay it ended up like $50 or so.. if u really want it, go to Urban Outfitters.. I finally bought 2 last year--and they were on-sale (after Christmas sale)--

Yesterday though, I saw this product ironically in my supermarket for only ~$13.95 (different looking box)-- but same product-- that's Ralph's in the San Diego area...

hope this helps

No, no, it's "AAAAAUUGH!". Back of the throat... "AAAAAAAAUUUGH!"

Try it again. :sleep

 

[Macrossmaster]

They have them at Walgreen's for $10. If you have one you're all set.

 

[Macklin]

You can get them at Walgreens as well.

 

[Betamin]

If you have all your friends come and wave their arms rapidly at it just like the Peanuts kids did in the cartoon at the end, the tree will be all decorated and suddenly become full and lush. It's amazing and stupid at the same time!!! Watching the cartoon as a child when they did that, I said "WTF? It was a branch! A BRANCH!!!!! Now it's a pine tree that rivals the one in Rockefeller Center!! How?? HOW????"

I must hit the local Walgreen's tomorrow to see if they have one. I am ready to wave my arms at it and have a great tree. Then, all I would need was a dancing Beagle.

 

[Lazy-8]

That is cool. I think I may head to Walgreens as well.

 

[jlee562]

Got mine from Urban outfitters last year as well....

 

[hankey01]

We dont have any of those stores here (in Canada)..just Wal Mart. I didnt notice them there but Ill check.

We do have a Toys R Us...but too far to drive in these conditions!!
