So I called: This years tree is 4ft tall artificial with lights, 10 ornaments and the theme is "Faith, Trust and Pixie Dust" it hasn't been "designed" yet, but should be unveiled on the Lake Buena Vista, FL - Florist, Flowers, Flower Delivery, Send Flowers, Walt Disney World Florist : Home site in about 2 weeks. They will come to your room while you are not there and set it up! Sounds great you say . . .

Are you ready for the price? Drum roll please . . . . $365!!!

Here's the number is you want to order one: 407-827-3505
(we're getting two . . . NOT!)

OH, and I was told . . . most people "leave it behind!" but if I wanted to have it shipped home, they will come and remove it and ship it for $50.

Does anyone else find this to be a TON of money? It's not just me right?

Last years was The Year of a Million Dreams Tree . . . but still $365 for a 4ft artificial tree . . . yikes!

I have looked into this as well. If we go at Xmas time, I would buy a "miniature tree" about 3ft tall. Pack it inside my Large luggage along with lights & plain red (plastic) bulbs. I would then go to DTD Xmas store and buy some cute Disney ornaments to decorate it. Then after my stay, pack everything back into my large suitcase, and it all goes home with me. I just can't see spending that kind of money. I have seen the tree's online, they are cute, but for that kind of money, I can buy a TON of Disney ornaments to take home.
