What'd ya' get?
 
Thought it would be fun to start this a little early since some of us open a couple of presents the night before. What did you get for Christmas Eve/Day?

I just opened a 4GB Thumb Drive an hour ago. Rest are for tomorrow.

The Lone Turtle 12-24-2006 08:44 PM

Dr. Doom 12-24-2006 10:00 PM

So far, I got my Wii (it's a present even though I've had it for weeks), the infamous TMNT hoodie, a Crow shirt, Inhuman Rampage by Dragonforce, This is Spinal Tap, Ultimate Spider-man for Gamecube, Volume 2 of Fullmetal Alchemist (manga), Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Trauma Center Second Opinion, a small figure of Zidane Tribal from Final Fantasy IX, and I treated myself to an Ocarina of Time shirt and a small figure of Vincent Valentine for FFVII. I don't know how much I'm getting tomorrow morning, but I have about $270 in gift money at my disposal as well, so I'll likely be adding to the list over the next couple days.

Peanut 12-25-2006 10:10 AM

I feel like a bandit this Christmas, because I made off with some pretty insane sh*t!

My girlfriend bought me a ton of crap, including an awesome sweater and Wind Waker t-shirt, a Viva Pinata 360 faceplate, some boxers and stuff, and some DVD's that have some real meaning to us.

JameO got me the first two volumes of the PA comics and a Spider-Man 2 graphic novel. His mom and dad gave me a sweet jacket. Apparently it makes me look alcoholic. Delectable!

My parents killed me this year. I got Elite Beat Agents for DS, a bunch of clothes, a new electric razor, (thank, God!) some new dress shoes and a new pair of sneakers...and then I opened up my Xbox 360 HDDVD drive. I was really happy with my haul, then my dad goes into our office and wheels out a Dell 37" LCD HDTV with all the fixings, including some sweet HDMI inputs. Cloud mother f*ckin' 9!

Hannah 12-25-2006 11:21 AM

Holy sh*t. Best Christmas ever.

I got a Zen Nano, a camera phone, New Super Mario Bros, World of Warcraft, paints, some jewelry, clothes, lotion, and lip gloss.

I'm so spoiled.

My friends got me a Gorillaz shirt, a keychain, a The Nightmare Before Christmas stuffed..Jack..thing, and I have yet to get the presents from my boyfriend and his sister.

My brothers and sister and I are also sharing Season 1 and 3 of the Simpsons.

My brother got a PS2, which means I'll be playing that as well.

Yay.

Raph's Girl 12-25-2006 11:28 AM

I got:
Clothes (shirts, Pajamas, and a nice red sweater jacket)
Penguin plushies (including a build a bear Mumbles)
Candy (lots and lots of candy)
A penguin pooper (a weird wind up walking penguin that poops candy :lol: )
A penguin in a penguin thing (like those Russian dolls...only with Mumbles of Happy Feet)
Money
Kermit's Swamp Years DVD
Treasure of Khan by Clive and Dirk Cussler (Yay! Brand new Dirk Pitt adventure! :evilgrin: )
CD R Music CD's (for burning purposes only of course)

As usual I got everything I wanted and more. I'll be getting even more later after visiting my step-grandparents and when my dad and step-mom come down to visit tomarrow.
