Well I figured I'd start this now as people get sent gifts early and such. We're just a few days away anyhow. So post all your awesome pressies and maybe even along with some pics!!!!
Just a couple of hours after posting this checked the mail and got some cards!!!
So far 70 bucks and a 200$ Wal-mart card :awesome:
Also another 250$ in Christmas monies :D
If I had waited until I had everything together and not spent almost all of the first bunch of stuff I'd be on a PS3 right now...
SSB Brawl, 40 dollars GS gift cards, THe new Guiness World Records book.
a toothbrush. Ferric Chloric acid.
i few games (which i will return and buy cheaper elsewhere because all of said games i was given can be bought for like half of what was paid), clothes, the stereotypical Socks and wallet, a $50 gift card to EB, $50 bill in new plastic canadian monies and chocolate
A Wii U Basic Set, NintendoLand, New Super Mario Bros. U, a 32" HDTV, Black Ops 2 Shirt and hat, and a...My little Pony figure...(Which was a joke from the parents. =P)
Didn't get anything this year. My family back home aren't in very good shape financially, and here in Japan, Christmas just isn't that big a thing, and generally when people give presents it'll either be parents giving to their kids, or people giving to their boyfriends / girlfriends. I did receive some pretty cards from people around the world, though. ^^;;; And I bought myself a few nice presents including lots of clothes, a DVD boxset of a Korean drama that I like, and a lovely 264 page book of piano sheet music from the Seiken Densetsu / Secret of Mana series.
I would be happy to receive this. ^_^ Just sayin'~Quote:

I got a decent haul of mostly videogames, as usual :) Let's see, a non-preorder LE of The Last Story, Resi 6, Kirby's 20th Anniversary Collection, Skyrim, MGS HD Collection and New Super Mario Bros. Then for no reason some InuYasha bluray, and the new seasons of Slayers which I've been meaning to buy~ Some Pot of Golds, $1000000200 and some random candy. Here, lookie:

Ragnar, I'd love to join you on RE6 some time soon. :)
Lcky, I want the Kirby Collection!Quote:

Clothes, which is exactly what I wanted.
I remember as a kid all I wanted was toys and stuff. Now and days I get clothes, and I'm like "Fuck yeah, now I don't need to buy it myself!" :wacko:
$80, a travel backgammon set, 2 bean bag chairs, a Wiimote/nunchuck, a wireless sensor bar, a wired 360 controller, a Turtle Beach headset, a 500GB external HDD, and some M$ points.
But but, my PS3 isn't plugged into the interweb, and I'm unlikely to actually play RE6 this year :wacko:Quote:

I mean, I figured I'm in charge of clothing myself the rest of the year, I could use some help once a year. :wacko:Quote:

*because we're all too lazy to figure out what looks good on us ourselves, and allow others to buy good looking clothes for us*Quote:

Agreed. I can (and do) buy games all the time. But it's hard to find good shirts sometimes, or there are stores that I don't think of/don't know exist/don't have access to that carry shirts that I like. I got two really great button-up shirts from my mom this year, and I have no idea what store she gets them from. I've never seen them around here. But I love 'em, and I think they look damn good.Quote:

Kayti bought me a Booster Box[36] of Return to Ravnica.
My mom got me a Deluxe WiiU.
Funny story though, She asked what I wanted for Christmas and I said don't really want anything and immediately after a WiiU commercial showed and she goes that looks cool. I was like yeah, and she goes "done."
I haven't really played the WiiU yet, but we played some Nintendo land that came with it and we had a good time. First time the family got together and did something since I was a kid.
Aside from that, I bought Kayti a Kindle FireHD and some clothes and stuff.
I bought myself a new jacket that's long enough to conceal my handgun finally when she spent her money at the mall today.
i get all my t-shirts at anime cons in toronto, they are like $5 eachQuote:
