Go, go, go!

Getting your Christmas tree in the next few weeks? You could do a lot worse than popping out to IKEA to get it. The retailer is selling real pine trees for €30 in the run-up to the festive season and has a pretty sweet deal to go with them. Anyone who buys one of the trees at its Ballymun store from 22 November (Thursday week) will get a €20 voucher - a fairly decent freebie to get. The offer runs right up until 24 December and the vouchers will be valid in both its Ballymun and Carrickmines locations any time between 14 January and 3 March, meaning you can pick up something nice when you're broke in the new year. While we're in getting the tree, we'll also be having a browse of the IKEA Christmas collection. Whether you're into keeping your festive decor minimal and stylish or are more of an all-out sparkle person, we reckon you'll find what you're looking for there. Here are some of our favourite pieces they have this year.   Light-up box decoration €10   Napkin holder €1.50 each   Cocktail sticks €7 for four   Tea light holder €8 each   Table cloth holders €4.50 for four   Bird tree decorations €5 for three   Baubles €10 for set of 32   Star lights €18
