Has anyone shoped at Target for over ten years or more?


This doesn't retain to the movie. But this is a Christmas movie. I a few questions for shoppers who shop at Target for the last ten or twelve years. I use to have this tall big tree that my mom brought from Target this was back in 1997. It was Canadian Pine 7 1/2 foot when you put it up think all Target's Christmas Trees back then before pre-lit trees came out. All you had was put it up in three sections. I liked Target's Christmas Trees better than Wal-mart's where you get all the piece of branches to hook them on the pole! Does anyone know what type of Christmas Tree I'm talking about? If you do....Does anyone know if they're still in market somewhere so I can find one? If someone can help me thank you so much!

I have a 3-section tree like that that I got at a pool and patio store that (understandably) has lots of Christmas stuff in the wintertime. (In fact, it was one of the early pre-lit trees, but due to a strange customer service issue they removed the lights before they sold it to me.)

Maybe you can narrow down the manufacturers online and then find out who carries them near you. Ours looks really nice, so I have to think they still make the kind like that that's easy to assemble.

It was easy and I put whatever lights I wanted to put on the tree. To cover up the tree with lights. Pre-lit are easy and simple but you have to use the same lights on tree year after year.

Yes, I would have given the brand name but the cardboard box wore out long ago . . . :)

We have a 3 piece Christmas tree. It's also 7 1/2 ft. We bought it in 2000 at Garden Ridge Pottery in Houston. Now the stores seem to have dropped the Pottery from the name. The tree still looks great. The box is long gone and I have no idea what name it sold under. I'm not sure they even sell them anymore. I'll have to check when I go by Garden Ridge to get holiday decor.
