Da tree.

I paid $10 for my tree on Christmas Eve 2000 at the long-gone K-mart. It was decorated and had lights on. The employees were in the middle of their Christmas party and when I came in and asked to buy a tree, one of them just unplugged the display model, pushed it in my direction and I handed him ten bucks. It was pretty clear I wasn't invited to the party.  That's probably the only good deal I ever got in my life until I bought that 2.5 ounces of reefer for $25 last week.
