Of course, I think they should all offer you deep discounts - if not pay your outright - for supporting their businesses.

I've never tried them but I think they faint on our first warm day. Maybe I'll try them this year if I find them in January.<br /><br />As to the square wreaths, I was reminded of the old saw where the farmer tells his college-educated son, "Pie r round, cornbread r square." Wreaths are meant to be round else they are picture frames?<br /><br />I could decorate around a red tractor but before I finished, it would have to move out to lift something or cut something or something.
