I thought it was brilliant free advertising. I wouldn’t have thought of Lowe’s as a place for my tree — I think of it more as a place for things I don’t really know how to use (a chaulk gun…?). Now it will be in my head, and I guess they’re calling it a Christmas tree, so now they’ll have what I’d ask for…
UPDATE: I can’t even spell it, never mind use it. But I’m certain they have them at Lowe’s (chick-friendly Lowe’s [sorry, ladies] will even explain it!):
I’m sure many have corrected you by now, but it’s “caulk” gun, not “chaulk.” Caulk is the rubbery stuff that seals the edges of things like windows and bathtubs and sinks to keep moisture from seeping in through crevices where it ought not be. I’m not sure what chaulk is. As a handimistress, I can tell you that mastering a caulk gun is one of life’s (very) small triumphs.
