Upside down Xmas trees - what's this new trend?

[Viper_Larry]

In John Lewis yesterday and they have a number of Xmas trees that are 'reversible' which means you can have them upside down... WTF?

Is this something new or have I just not noticed on previous years? Daft idea...

[Altrezia]

WTF. Never seen that before..

It's October FFS !!

Saw them last year and stepped away from the area very quickly.

They have been here in Aus for years...along with pink, black or white ones. They also do ones that are a bit like a Palam tree so are just a stick with some leaves at the top.

I saw these in a Pub trade magazine recently, bloody stupid idea, and the upside down ones were £20 more than the uprights

it was a new trend about 2 years ago. not sure about this year. son't like them myself

It kind of make sense....it means you can get so many more prezzies under the tree

It's the sort of tree that would be great in my house, as it doesn't take up much floor space.....Pity it looks so bloody stupid though!

John Lewis were stocking these last year and could`nt keep up with demand. Quite quirky I suppose, but I think the novelty would soon wear off.

The expression 'Desperate to be different' springs to mind.

Some people go miles out of their way to attract the innovative punter, the feeble person, who feels the need to have that something extra that their neighbour doesn't have.

What a pathetic world we live in!












Er, how much are these trees again......?
