Indeed, December just days away and therefore now is the time to start decorating – if you haven’t already began of course. As such, if the purchasing of a new Christmas tree is on your list of Yuletide priorities, then you have come to the right place.
For we have compiled a comprehensive guide on how you can snap up the best value for money indoor and outdoor trees at the UK’s major supermarkets. One delighted Asda shopper who is already excited for December 25 took to TikTok to share her joy after setting up her own newly-bought tree. “The new tree is everything I wanted and more!” Kimberly Marshall declared in a video. “My friend actually popped in and asked if we’d got a real one this year!? It’s so stunning i can’t even cope. Big up Asda for bringing new Christmas magic this year.”

If your heart is set on an outdoor tree, then Lidl’s Large Nordman Fir Cut Christmas Tree is an appealing £19.99. The supermarket said: “This British Christmas tree has been hand pruned to nurture a full bushy shape, it boasts soft but strong needles, ideal for decorating.”
Lidl advised: “To get the best from this tree, saw approx. 5cm off the base of the trunk and place the tree in a water holding stand. The tree will drink water, just like cut flowers, so keep the water topped up daily.”

The product description continued: “A full and realistic design, perfect for creating a festive atmosphere in any room.

A breeze to set up, this easy-to-assemble tree can go from in the box to festive focal point in minutes. Coming in 3 parts that slot together into a sturdy base, the tree’s branches are on hinges and lower into position. For that classic Christmas tree shape, we recommend you take time to tweak and tease the branches, so they look thick and full.
“No more wilting branches or hoovering up needles, this mess-free tree needs zero maintenance. Best of all, when the festivities come to an end, simply pack the tree back into its box ready for next Christmas. And many more Christmases after that.” Meanwhile, a 7ft version of the Habitat tree will set you back £35.

At Aldi, presently only one Christmas tree is marketed online, the Christmas Tree by Perfect Christmas. At £39.99, shoppers have a choice of traditional green, or ‘snowy look’ versions. “Give your decor the perfect finishing touch with this Christmas Tree,” the supermarket said.
At 6ft (180cm approx), the artificial tree also includes a wooden stand and consists of a whopping 972 PET branches.
