Christmas Eve shopping is in full swing at the local General Store where we find last minute customers hastily selecting a few more holiday decorations and ornaments. Standing unnoticed in the corner is a small artificial Christmas Tree, watching, listening and wishing only to be chosen and taken home for the holiday festivities. Sadly the tree isn't chosen and soon the doors close as the disappearing shoppers run home to begin their celebrations. The little tree looks out of the store windows toward the empty streets and prepares to spend Christmas Eve alone in the shadows of the now darkened store. But something is about to change. The Five Dollar Christmas Tree is a true story, one children and adults will enjoy sharing at Christmas time - over and over again.
