Customers line up to score one-euro Ikea Christmas trees

Hundreds of Dutch lined up at Ikea stores on Sunday to take advantage of their one-euro Christmas tree promotion. Some customers even waited in line for more than an hour, according to Metro Nieuws. The Christmas tree promotion is on until December 16th. Customers buy a Christmas tree for 20 euros, and then get a 19 euro gift card. The remaining euro is donated to a local Nature monument project. Now that Sinterklaas' arrival is done with, a large part of the Dutch population is turning their attentions to Christmas. Many Ikea customers already posted pics of their decorated 1 euro Christmas trees on social media. https://twitter.com/bramspeelman/status/673558524937560064
