Christmas isn’t the same without a tree that takes centre stage in your festive celebrations.
The best time to purchase a Christmas tree typically falls on December 1 or the first weekend of the month.
However, for those who want to snap up one for less, households should look to the supermarkets now.
But with so many to choose from, it can be hard to pick the right one that won’t damage your wallet.
Luckily, consumer group Which? Have shared where to buy the top six cheapest supermarket Christmas trees for 2024.
