     It's one day after Thanksgiving, and along with gift shopping some people are already getting their Christmas Trees.

     It's the first year the Tom Sawyer Christmas Trees have been sold in Chattanooga.
     They sell fresh cut trees grown in North Carolina.
     They're selling 2 to 13 foot trees in the Beth Bath and Beyond parking lot by Hamilton Place.
     Owner Myra Montanaro says 10-percent of their profits go to children's charities.
     She says each person is looking for a different tree, but gives this tip on finding one that will last.
     Montanaro says, "If you handle the tree and the needles don't fall off. That's a really good indication that it's gonna last long."
     Workers put a hole in the bottom of the tree to help it last longer.
     Trees start at $22, and they'll be there until December 23rd.
