As the festive season approaches, savvy shoppers are always on the lookout for ways to deck the halls without breaking the bank. This year, Kmart Australia has truly outdone itself by offering a Christmas miracle in the form of a budget-friendly tree that rivals a high-end bestseller. The retail giant has quietly launched a $129 Christmas tree that's causing quite the stir for its striking resemblance to a $1200 luxury version.


The $129 Snowy Pre-lit Christmas Tree is part of Kmart's 2024 Christmas range and stands a proud 213cm tall. It boasts the enchanting look of snow-covered branches and comes with the convenience of 200 built-in LED lights, making assembly a breeze. The tree's design is so convincing that it's been compared to the Balsam Hill Frosted Fraser Fir Tree, which is priced at a whopping $1199, reduced from $1699. While the Balsam Hill tree is slightly taller at 229cm and features a variety of LED lighting options and a fuller silhouette, Kmart's version is a steal for those who want the luxe look without the luxe price tag.

In previous years, Kmart's Christmas trees have been a hit among customers, with many taking to social media to express their delight. One Facebook user praised the tree, saying, 'Very impressed with how easy it was to assemble, and very little 'snow' dropped to the floor. Such a bargain!' Others echoed the sentiment, with comments like 'Couldn't be happier with Kmart's pre-lit Christmas tree, gorgeous even when unlit,' and 'Looks beautiful.'


But the tree isn't the only festive find in Kmart's early Christmas release. The range, which dropped three months ahead of the holiday season, includes a variety of adorable and affordable items that are sure to spread cheer. Among the top products are a $15 Mini Gingerbread Man Waffle Maker, an $8 Christmas Pudding Basket, and $16 two-tone red and green Coupe Glasses. These items not only make for great decorations but also serve as perfect gifts for loved ones or as a treat for yourself.
The non-stick Gingerbread Man Waffle Maker is set to be the latest must-have mini appliance, allowing customers to whip up homemade gingerbread man-shaped waffles in minutes – a delightful addition to any Christmas breakfast. For those looking to add a festive touch to their bathroom, the $10 Ho Ho Ho Bath Mat with tassel detail is a charming option. And for the entertainers, the elegant 12 Days of Christmas Serving Plate Set, retailing for just $20, is sure to impress guests with its unique designs featuring iconic Christmas symbols from Santa Claus to his reindeer.


Kmart's ability to deliver such high-quality, budget-friendly alternatives to expensive Christmas decorations is a testament to the brand's commitment to affordability and style. It's no wonder that shoppers are in awe of the $129 Christmas tree 'dupe' and the rest of the festive range. With such incredible deals, it's advisable to act fast and grab these items before they're gone.
