- Walmart has launched a Christmas tree delivery program and even a Christmas lights installation service this year. They’ll also drop off things like wreaths and poinsettias. Installation on single-story homes costs $129, while for a double-story it’s $199. However, those prices only include labor and not the actual Christmas lights, extension cords, or clips. And if you want them to remove your lights you can pay for that too. It’ll cost you $99 for a one-story home and $159 for a two-story home. You can order both services on Walmart’s website. Last month, Lowe’s also launched a holiday tree delivery plan.

- The holidays will be a lot quieter this year if you follow the latest guidelines suggested by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Published yesterday (November 18th), the organization says to minimize the spread of COVID-19, people should avoid singing or shouting (especially indoors), avoid close contact with others from outside one's household (you still should be socially distancing, keeping six feet apart), and avoid drinking alcohol. The CDC also warns against drinking as, “Using alcohol or drugs that may alter judgement [could] make it more difficult to practice COVID-19 safety measures.” And if you can’t avoid having a holiday gathering, the organization recommends wearing face masks and having hand sanitizers or hand washing stations available for guests. Quarantining for 14 days before and/or after the event has also been suggested to minimize exposing others to the virus.
