So you haven't bought yourself a Christmas tree yet, have you? You really need one, though. And you want to feel good about it, you want to turn it into a symbol of your giving nature and bring happiness to others through your participation in the commodification of the holiday season. After all, it hasn't happened if you haven't bought something to commemorate it, right?
December 8th and 9th and again December 15th and 16th, from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. (or maybe later), you should come down to 17th and R Streets NW to the most excellent Dupont Italian Kitchen, have yourself some brunch, and buy a tree. My son's elementary school is selling trees at that location to raise funds and 50% is tax deductible. We even offer free delivery to those of you who reside within realistic range (we will not cross the Potomac or the Anacostia, nor are we interested in driving up through Palisades or beyond North Capitol for that matter, but Columbia Heights, Adams Morgan, Howard University, Georgetown, Mount Pleasant, etc., and of course Dupont Circle are all in play...maybe more, who knows...).
If you don't want a tree, buy a wreath. If you don't want a wreath, just leave some money. It all goes to the school.

Do you sell little trees? My apartment is little and I would like a little tree.
Oh indeed we sell tabeltop trees. They are fraser firs.
What's the price range? For those of us who are broke and very, very cheap, we need to plan.
foilwoman: the price range isn't low. It's fundraiser pricing. Starts around $40 for tabletops and goes up from there.
