An alternative to buy one is to use last years.
In Portugal it is not as crazy as it seems since they sell the trees WITH roots!
Having it on a south balcony with sporadic watering in the summer does not make a perfect tree the next year but it was possible to reuse it anyway.  8) The latter half of the year it spent in the garden and was much happier and it was just brought in and dressed in the nice indoor cloths.

Merry Christmas every one and very happy New Year

Kind regards
Joakim

PS as to whom pinched Maggi the answer must be BD ::)
