We did this last year, I figured I start one this year...

Well, I got a leather coat (yay for Black Friday deals :D ), a pair of Timberland boots (no, not those ones people like Saff wear D: these are manly hiking boots), a long sleeved shirt, and Lego StarWars for the Wii... Oh and monies...

How'd the rest of you fare?

Monies, a transformer and some graphic novels. :D

I was really hoping to get Lego Star Wars for the Wii as well considering the offer that Gamestation had going but I didn't... and the offer's over now... :">

A hundred or two in money, and a new computer.

I would consider this low if the computer weren't the best thing I've ever gotten in a Christmas gift - From someone who's always had bottom-rung bargian-bin computers, having a computer this powerful is a godsend. <3

Monies, munchies, a cookbook, and a tablet.

May not seem like much, but added all up, I pulled in quite a haul this year. And there's more to come.

For those who got monies, any plans for them yet? Mine will likely go to bills, costume supplies, and/or a dremel.

A DS and Sonic Rush. (yeah, I finally get to play it) <_< And a couple of other games like Yoshi's Island DS and stuff.

I also got A Futurama DVD and a Game Design book (although the CD that went along with it was missing, presumed stolen despite us paying for it...and even then it most likely won't work on a mac)

Not to mention money.

My main present was a Preowned Xbox 360 Elite from Eve and Dad. So I would just buy myself the odd present and wrap it up and shove under the tree.

So I got myself:
Bioshock: Collectors Edition (with the Big Daddy statue)
Mass Effect Art book and Guide
Assassin's Creed Art Book and Guide (I'm such a whore for Limited Edition Crap)
QI Annual.

Plus I got Season 1 of Fraiser and a WWE Divas Calendar from Eve. Which is nice.

I got a new phone although I received it in November though due to my old one being practically useless.

Actually on christmas Mum got me some poker cards 😀 I have no idea why but it is awesome even though I have no idea how to play it 😀

I got more chocolate than you can shake a stick at from various people, including Wes' parents :O

Wes got me a watch which I am wearing atm

um one of my best friends got me some anime DVDs and my other best friend got be a couple of bracelets and this strobing, epileptic fit inducing rubber duck.

Wes: POST HIJACK ^-^-^-^-^-^

i got 300, fight club, heroes and pirates 3 on DVD, Assassin's Creed [from Susan], Oblivion, GH3 and Mass Effect [all for 360 obviously], a Queen CD and a Jeremy Clarkson book, a crappy DS game from Creo (so did Susan actually, to save her having to go back and type it back in), chocolates and monies.

I got a DSLite (black, w/ green Phantom Hourglass glove), and Phoenix Wright:T&T. I also have enough for a few more games, so I'll probably end up getting Phantom Hourglass and Sonic Rush Adventure. T&T is great. I'm in Episode 5, up to where Miles takes over.

--an 80 GB iPod
Story: Mom had me open that one last. When I opened it, she said it'd be mine on the condition that I give her my old MP3 player (which is a 5 GB Dell). Then, she opened the present that Dad wanted her to open last, which was the exact same iPod. It turned out that he already bought her one when she told him to pick one out for me.

CD's:
Pink Floyd - "The Wall"
Flogging Molly - "Drunken Lullabies"
Mika - "Life in Cartoon Motion"

DVD's:
Family Guy, vol. 5
Meerkat Manor, season one (Mom also ordered a plushie to go with that, but then got an e-mail from the manufacturer saying they were sold out =( )
Meet the Robinsons
Pixar short films compilation
Ratatouille
The Simpsons Movie
Sonic Underground, vol. 1
Surf's Up
Tokyo Godfathers
Transformers (on the way, will get it when oldest brother comes home from the Air Force)

Sonic Rush Adventure for DS

A big box full of action figures. =D =D =D
Inside were two different Sonic's; and Terrance & Phillip and two of the same Butters from South Park.
When I came home from college for Christmas, Mom was disappointed to realize that I already had this: www.cmdstore.com/south-pa...rbang.html
She bought me one, too. When I opened it, I told her she was lucky, because they made two different ones and the one she got was the one I didn't have.

When my aunt bought the FG boxset for me, she told Mom about it afterwards, and she warned her that I probably already have it. So down at her house, after I opened her gift, she told me what Mom said. Then I said that this was actually the single one that I do not have. She was so excited to hear that. XD

Other stuff: Clothes, candy, a snowman music box, a "bad cat" calender, a Bloo (from Foster's) pillow, lotion & body spray, a Best Buy gift card, and $20.

On top of that, it turns out my family payed $30 dollars for a demo version of Yoshi's Island DS. Its all bare bones and it plays one level only, the first one. I hadn't gotten around to even playing it until last night. The cartridge even had a "not availble for resale" on the front and a sticker on the back that was there but my mother had peeled it off earlier leaving lots of stickyness on the back that had to be cleaned off with googone and even then some stickyness remained and I don't know if it will cause problems for my new DS in the future. It was purchased at Gamestop. We are going back today hopefully to rectify the situation, so who knows what will happen.

New purse
Pashmina
Electric blanket
Cashmere sweater
Whitby jet earrings
Harry Potter t-shirt
90 years of RAF calendar (alas no Sopwith Camels, but an SE5)

Very nice. Mind you, I spent most of the time at home channelling Scrooge. The longer I live by myself, the less I enjoy living with other people...
