Run a Christmas Tree Lot Beginner Guide

1. Pick a save and a region

The Your Tree Lots screen has three tabs: Solo, Duos and Trios. Each holds its own saves, shown with the lot's name, day, cash, star rating and region. "Create new save" makes a lot; in Duos and Trios you can instead join a friend's save with its code. You can rename a lot at any time (the default name is "<your name>'s Trees").

The region matters more than it looks: it decides which tree species your supplier sells. Most English-speaking players pick North America, and the tree tables on this wiki are for that region. A European lot sells species such as Siberian Fir and Swiss Stone Pine.

2. Place the first order

The tutorial walks you to the HQ tent and its computer ("Lot Manager, Use Computer"). The Tree Supplier tab opens with a Recommended Starter Order button. On a new lot it suggested 3 medium Douglas Fir and 2 medium Fraser Fir for $148 of your $300. Press Add to Order, then Place Order. A delivery truck brings the trees to the drop-off area a short time later; the Instant Delivery pass skips that wait.

• Use the minus, plus and MAX buttons next to each size; there is no number field.
• Watch the High Demand tags and the stock count ("14 available"); stock refreshes on a timer.
• The order panel shows the delivery area space ("0 / 30 free") and the bays in use.

3. Place trees on the lot

Pick up a tree from the delivery area and carry it to your lot. The placement bar has Rotate, Place, Done, a Fill Row switch and a Store Mode switch, plus a gap setting; a red marker shows where a tree is "too close to another tree". Fill Row places a whole row at once, which saves a lot of walking with big orders.

Layout is mostly taste early on: customers in the recordings walked straight through rows to reach any tree. Still, keep space around the HQ, since the HQ 2 building is bigger, and group trees by species, which also makes restocking easier. The Layout button moves the HQ, checkout and break area later.

4. Serve customers

1. A customer browses and picks a tree; its tag shows species, size, height and price (for example "Douglas Fir, Medium 7.1 ft, $70").
2. Pick the tree up and bring it to checkout, then use "Check Out" at the register.
3. Carry the tree to the customer's car and load it. The order number floats over their car (#120, for example).
4. The customer leaves a review with a star rating and a line such as "Quick and friendly. Merry Christmas!"

The first sale in the tutorial paid a reward of $400. Speed and price both show up in reviews: a three-star review in one recording said "Service was slow." Your average rating sits on the save card (4.0 to 4.9 in the recordings), and reputation, the star counter at the top right, is what the HQ upgrades ask for.

5. Do the daily quests and rewards

The Quests button opens three quests and a bonus. Examples from the recordings: "Order 10 trees" for $150, "Get 4 five-star ratings" for +50 reputation, "Sell 3 large trees" for $150, "Sell 3 Noble Fir" for $150, and a fourth reward for finishing all three ("Sell 15 trees": $700 and +70 reputation). Quests refresh on a timer, and each can be skipped for a few Robux.

Daily Rewards is a seven-day calendar of cash and reputation. The window carries a "Join Group for 2x Rewards" button: joining the Mr. Grinchmas group doubles what you collect.

6. Hire help and grow

Once a few hundred dollars come in, the game's tips push you toward parking ("Need More Parking? Add spaces so more customers can visit") and staff. A Lot Worker costs $1,800 and a Cashier $1,200; with both, you can manage orders and prices while the lot runs. The full list of HQ requirements and costs is on the HQ and workers page, and the HQ 2 checker tells you what is still missing.

Common beginner mistakes

• Overpricing early. Shoppers walk away with "Too expensive". Keep the typical price until Lot Appeal is high; see pricing.
• Running out of stock. The tip "Running Low on Trees! Order more from the Tree Supplier" means sales are about to stop. Order before the last rows sell.
• Serving out of order. Hand over trees in order-number sequence.
• Burning boosts at the wrong time. MISTLETOE and NICELIST run on a timer from the moment you redeem them.
• Closing the lot by accident. If no one arrives, check the Lot Status badge in the top-right corner says Open.

Events

The game runs story events. On 14 November a Join Event card announced "Christmas Event Part 2" for Sunday 15 November: Krampus has been caught, but something worse is coming down the road and every tree lot will need to stand together. Event rewards were not shown before it started, so check the event card in game.
