The Official Post Your Presents Thread

[TheGhost]

Well, our family has the tradition of opening one present the night before Christmas, so I figured I would start this thread now, and edit it later.

Post what you got for Christmas! If you didn't get anything, post and everyone will +rep your post, so you'll have some rep to fill your stocking.

My List

Nikon AF-S VR 55-200mm Zoom Nikkor Lens

[Rook]

only thing notable is everyone from work put together ~100 bucks together for me where I've been out for a month.

[Ganon]

Just got a pair of Sennheiser hd-555's

[SiriusTexra]

I got a wallet from my gf, and funnily enough, it has the all seeing eye/pyramid etched into it, some popular aussie surf brand (?????), and she didn't even know it was there.

Heh, seems fitting that it's right where I keep my money too.

Other than that, JD BBQ Sauce, some Thai cookbooks, the Ghostbusters game (rad) and I'm probably going to get myself the intuos 4 large, but probably in jan($$$$$$), for now though, it's gunna be a new mouse, since this one just fucking broke, on christmas eve, while I'm trying to play my new game.

[Timo]

Got 2 UV Filters for a couple of my lenses (macro and 18-55mm), as well as a digital breathalyser and a magazine subscription. Stoked.

Studio Projects B1 condenser microphone
Desk stand for mic
Stereo mic bar (ensemble recording, mostly)

Belkin F5U250 Gigabit NIC (Expresscard/34, turns out XPS M1530 doesn't have gigabit :ugh:)

[Heathen]

Awesome plaid shirt so far.

And a bunch of things for my Truck

[Aßyll]

For some funny reason we didnt do the '1 gift on xmas eve' tradition.. I pointed it out, and my sister started asking for it, but my dad said it was too late. And then I finished wrapping my last present, and stuck it in the hard-to-see spot behind the tree.

Actual gifts so far: $10 tf2, lotsa event junk from miscellaneous MMO's with christmas giveaway events including a $5 cash shop coupon, and also a large water bottle (64 oz).

[Good_Apollo]

Just Christmas Eve here, got me a Bose iHome-like device, an Ankh necklace I'd been looking for, and the usual pajamas.

Have to see what I get tomorrow.

[DEElekgolo]

xmas in 7 minutes here.

[ExAm]

Moved from that one other thread where I forgot it wasn't the loot thread and accidentally bragged about my loot in a thread where a guy was talking about how he wasn't getting anything for christmas because his family was in a jam.

Today was mom's-house-christmas.

Loot list!

Two small highlighters
a stencil...?
chapstick
a bunch of tiny chocolate bars
a bag of chocolate coins
three oranges
a kiwifruit
chocolate altoids
a flashlight (i have gotten some form of flashlight every christmas for three christmases)
a jar of jalapeno stuffed olives (awesome)
a segmented jar of different Dave's Gourmet spices (FUCK YEAH)
180 dollars
and a lumbar support cushion for my car (O_o)

Well... I guess my back does hurt when I drive...

[p0lar_bear]

Not expecting anything; the only thing I showed any interest in wanting was the Francis T-Shirt from the Valve store, and I don't think anyone in my family trusts online shopping. My mother and I got everyone giftcards for Five Guys (http://www.fiveguys.com/home.aspx), my grandparents a few small things they want and need, and I got my mother a good pair of shoes.

I managed to get myself a copy of Left 4 Dead 2 on the 360 by trading in a few DS and 360 games I don't play anymore. It's funny, I got $20 credit for Mario Kart DS, and only $8 for Halo 3...

It's only 8am, nobody's up yet except me (goddamn cold...), so I might be surprised.

Find a friend or someone that will buy you a live card for staff pricing from an electronics store, they're like half price. Hard drives are a good $20-$50 off as well at store cost price, depending on where you go and who you ask.

Holy shit, did the Canon T1i just become the most popular camera ever or something? I've seen like 50 people across different websites saying they got one for Christmas or plan to soon?!

[thehoodedsmack]

Got a couple hundred bucks and "The Hangover" for my birthday. Good holiday season.

[InnerGoat]

Holy shit, did the Canon T1i just become the most popular camera ever or something? I've seen like 50 people across different websites saying they got one for Christmas or plan to soon?!

Maybe. People really like taking video of their cats :smile:

sorry i don't rip everything ever
don't worry, i don't buy music on itunes
just tv shows. because generally ripping them means a massive hassle or terrible quality

*awaits infraction for discussion of piracy*
e: also i got a snowboard fuck yeah
ee: okay freeprancer in my opinion the reason everyone is buying the t1i (which i've noticed as well, last time i had checked amazon was out of stock of the damn things as was the store i went to to buy it) is because they aren't dumb enough to buy the XS or the XSi
they have generally okay reviews, whereas the T1i is marketed as a very good entry level camera and its reviews support it

[klange]

Passport case; ¥10000 (http://www.google.com/search?q=10000+japanese+yen+in+us+dollars); a few minor frivolities.
