Couple two tree

Used across the entire midwest and parts of the northeast, it's a way for someone to say "a few" but add more ambiguity so as not to be held accountable for any specific amount. The "tree" indicates an alternate pronunciation for the word "three" thanks to language influences from the Italians, Irish, and Germans in the United States.

I had a couple two tree beers at the bar no big deal.
