optic is trhe way to go, although costly

I bought a very small (3 ft) artifical tree with the
fiber optic lighting about 4 or 5 years ago. It was $30-40
at Target but it still works and looks great. Easy to errect
and break down. I just compress the tree a little, stuff
it in a plastic trash bag which (together with the other
Xmas stuff) gets stored at the very back of the cupboard
under the stairs.

It's turned out to be a good little investment.
