I needed small fir trees for every day use as I keep these trees up as part of my decor year round and Christmas Central had a wonderful selection at reasonable prices. Plus, the trees were life-like, great quality. I also needed a bunch of lighting too. I use it year-round as well and Christmas Central had such a variety of colors and sizes for the lighting that was perfect for my needs. The prices were the best I've seen as well. They have excellent shipping speed too.
