(ABC 6 News) — Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and Christmas will be following not too far behind.
With so many families closely watching their finances right now, a real Christmas tree might be the best bet to save money.
Christmas tree farmers say supply is steady this year with 84% saying they don’t plan on raising wholesale prices.
However, for those looking for an artificial tree, they aren’t so lucky. Those prices are expected to be 10-20% higher this year.
Many artificial Christmas trees, ornaments, and decorations come from China, so tariffs are having an impact on those prices.
