So - what did you get?

Re: So - what did you get?

I said it had deep meaning in my first post!

I wasn't like "hey guys I'm getting toothbrushes! Man I love toothbrushes!"

Deep meaning could still be something stupid!

Here's my haul. It was a really good year, I am very fortunate (and have a good-sized extended family)

-PS3
-Burnout Paradise
-Quesadilla Maker
-$30 cash
-$35 gift card
-$30 gift card
-$20 gift card
-Milwaukee Brewers T-shirt
-Milwaukee Brewers gift certificate
-Blood Diamond and The Perfect Storm on Blu-Ray
-My sister works at Cousins Subs, so she gave me a coupon book for free stuff
-Our family got a popcorn machine from my aunt and uncle

And I've still got a few more gifts coming in the morning when we unwrap the stuff for just my immediate family. I'm guessing there's another PS3 game or two in there.

Re: So - what did you get?

My grandmother, who passed away almost 3 years ago, would always get me 4 toothbrushes for Christmas so I could have my yearly supply of toothbrushes (you're supposed to change every 3 months). Those 4 toothbrushes mean more to me than any other gift possibly could.

I could honestly get anything I ask for, but I'm happy with what I have.

I do want some things: new phone, iPod speakers, clothes. But I'm not dying to have them, so I can wait.

Well i guess it makes sense now.

Re: So - what did you get?

I wish I was a kid again, I'm not getting anything, it's all about the kids..

That's the deal here. We're up right now cooking. I am looking forward to the meal lol.

Re: So - what did you get?

I got stiga table hockey! I will take pictures and post them in this thread. I am in love with this thing...always wanted one since I was in high school (when my brother and I had a beat up version from a dollar store that we ran through...)

I'm 30 now and will put down the PS3 control for a couple of days to practice my table hockey skills...

NICE!!!!!! I used to play my Dad in table hockey when I was a kid. Being from Chicago, I would actually pretend my players were the Oilers. LOL. I would do the play-by-play as I beat my pops down.

"Lowe to Gretzky to Kurri.....GOAL!!!!!!"

HAHA, good times.

OK, I gotta ask... quesadilla maker? I didn't know they even had such things.

Re: So - what did you get?

I actually forgot about the best gift I got so far...an ornament with my great grandmother's picture in it. She passed away 5 years ago, so it's quickly become one of my prized possessions. Since we don't have a tree at our apartment, I put it on my doorknob, that way I'll see it every day.

That's really awesome.

Re: So - what did you get?

I got a nice Christmas Eve and Christmas (tomorrow) spent with family. My current life consists of jumping on a plane every other day, so it's nice to sit back, have a glass of wine, and be with the family. The gifts are only for the children in the family, and seeing the joy on their faces when they open up one of their gifts is wonderful.

Re: So - what did you get?

Me & my sister always get pajama's on Christmas Eve. This year my parents got me some Stewie pajama pants haha...

Re: So - what did you get?

Hey now...some of us open our gifts on Christmas Eve. My Mom's family did that, while my Dad's did them all on Christmas Morning. So, when I was growing up, we'd do a few on Christmas Eve and the rest in the morning.

What I opened tonight were some wool socks, a way to thin polo shirt, sweats, and 'LittleBigPlanet' on PS3, which is an AWESOME game, at least the hour or so I put into it.

Re: So - what did you get?

I didn't really ask for much this year.

I bought a silver iPod Nano with some of the money from my grandparents.

I got some clothes and stuff, but the real thing my parents gave me was my dad set me up a fidelity account and put a good sum of money in to get a little into the stock market.

I got a lot of little stuff from my aunt though, including the Auburn gameday tee for the UGA game this year.

I'll probably get more tomorrow, even though I'm 16 and my sister is 18 my parents still do the whole 'santa' thing. It should be alright.

We're leaving tomorrow to go skiing in Park City, so I guess that counts, too.

All in all, I got some pretty good gifts.
