Wtf, John Lewis? Wtf? Why would you do this, why?

Will anyone buy one?

(If you can't see the picture, imagine Santa's icy corpse rising from a bath of mortuary chemicals, and charge yourself £25)

John Lewis wtf

Just ordered myself 50. I want a full tree of them.

Yep, me too. Can't think of a better way to spend £1250.

I love the way JL have to reinvent their red/rose gold/silver/neon, etc tree 'themes' every year, but in such a way that all last year's unsold baubles can still fall into this year's themes. I wonder where Santa on a Tractor will turn up in 2022? Winter Fayre? Community Garden? That garden veg trug has been around longer than Slade.

TWENTY FIVE POUNDS!!!!!

Remember when Trump had a corridor of red Christmas trees? Christmas in Hades.

You need to get yourselves down to Wilkos or B & M.

Christmas tat for a couple of quid.

It looks like something the detective would find in a disused industrial site in a Nordic Noir series.

There was something very sinister about that whole presidency never mind the Christmas trees

LOL at festive farter

stripeymonster · 06/09/2022 22:33

John Lewis wtf
RaRaRaspoutine · 06/09/2022 22:45

Hahahaha that’s awful. I love how they’ve sold out. Presumably morgues also have Christmas trees?

OrangeVelour · 06/09/2022 23:29

Haha! I actually love this, but I wouldn't pay more than a tenner for it. Probably not even that.

Howeverdoyouneedme · 06/09/2022 22:00

I like it! I have an aubergine bauble though, and a Santa riding on a dolphin.

Shock How unmumsnetty of you! I'm shaking right now.

To be fair to Mrs Trump, she literally didn’t give a shit about the Christmas decorations and asked why she was expected to decorate the White House when she isn’t elected or a paid member of staff.

I thought she had a fair point. I bet the first time there is a heterosexual married female President the husband won’t be expected to decorate the White House for Christmas. I also bet Mr Trump told her to shut up and decorate and that’s why the White House ended up that way! Either way, I’ll give her a pass.

Aintnosupermum · 07/09/2022 01:33

Forgot to add, what’s the inflation rate of Christmas decorations? £25 for that?!? That’s not funny. Should be £1.

S0upertrooper · 07/09/2022 02:08

@ReginaPerrin farts aren't just for Christmas! ☄️

@Skiphopbump

Yes!… Lightening McPiano!

waltzingparrot · 07/09/2022 03:12

Surely they're going to be half pricing those in January.

WishawHoping · 07/09/2022 10:15

Nah, creepy bathtub Santa will be re-appearing in 2023 as part of the Icicle collection, in 2024 as the Neptune's Kingdom collection, and then in 2025 as The Shining collection.

blacksax · 06/09/2022 21:51

I've just had a look at the range. I mean, who doesn't want a gibbon dangling from your Christmas tree? Or a pink coffee machine?

I'm off to look for the christmas gibbon! I love an unusual decoration. Might draw the line at zombie bath santa though.

mam0918 · 07/09/2022 17:51

Apart from the strange colour scheme who wants an orniment of naked santa having a wash?

Why is that a thing?

Baths are usually a private activity not something for display, I would have to think someone somewhere had a orniment of my fat ass in the shower just on festive display as a talking point in their livingroom as the gather with family to eat sunday lunch lol.

EachandEveryone · 07/09/2022 17:59

I didnt honestly know there was a bauble protocol. I thought they were meant to be a collection of sentimental baubles that mean simething to the family. So does this mean my ziggy stardust , New York taxi and Vegas show girl are tacky then even though they bring back lovely memories?

MissPoldark · 07/09/2022 18:06

£25!!!!!!!!
but why are you looking at John Lewis baubollocks on 7th September?
it must be last years stock as it surely can’t have sold out already?

Nothingbuttheglory · 07/09/2022 18:13

but why are you looking at John Lewis baubollocks on 7th September?

In the words of Jeremy from Peep Show: I'm a Christmas-ist.* *

it must be last years stock as it surely can’t have sold out already?

I would remember if it was last year's 😆
I think it's just out of stock because it hasn't been in stock yet, iyswim.
