Marty Sugar Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 But this is my favorite gift: My youngest had "Colour Me Mine" (a ceramic store) come to school and she could paint one thing...she decided to paint ME a reindeer mug. It's amazing. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Sorrow Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 1. Red cargo sweatpants. I'm never taking them off. 2. A Gilmore Girls "Luke's Diner" pin. 3. Assorted t shirts and a pullover. 4. A Santa candy bar and some scratch offs 5. A Jerry Garcia tie 6. A bottle of weed punch 7. And some great grub followed by all of us going to see Rouge One, including my six year old nephew. It was his first "grown up" movie he's seen at the theater. And he loved it. He's walking around with same look on his face I had when I was seven and had just seen Star Wars. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabe Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I (and my wife) got screamed at by my brother absolutely out of nowhere, cutting short and ruining what had been a pretty nice day. Long before that (2am), I got a visit from a furnace repairman because we had no heat. Fortunately it wasn't too expensive to fix ($217). In between: - 2002 Team Canada Olympic Steve Yzerman jersey - 2lbs of super sharp cheddar - 4 bags of Better Made Rainbow potato chips (BEST chips ever) - 5 books - movie gift certificate - dinner and comedy club tickets Also got a DVD with home movies my uncle took before and right after I was born that I'd never seen. Was so cool to see my grandparents and great-grandmother. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianS81177 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Along with assorted movies, games and gift cards my girlfriend gave me a scrapbook filled with photos of my dad, and a pillow made out of one of his old shirts (he passed away back in July). And yup, I cried. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Death From Above Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Undeniably this year's centerpiece: http://esks.epiclegacies.com/ Also got Wayne Gretzky's new book, the Pink Floyd Early Years double CD, Star Wars The Force Awakens, clothes I don't hate, and probably the best meal I ate all year. I really can't complain. We don't really get huge on Christmas. It was a good one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 A new MP3/USB radio and console piece for my Infiniti (got some much needed new sparkplugs too), iPhone 6S w/ screen protector, Xbox One with WWE 2K17 and Fallout 4, two long sleeve shirts, some socks, $10 Sonic & Walmart giftcards, and a $50 one for Hardee's (will be used for breakfast mainly, since I get off work at 6am every morning), and $30. Some of this list reads as if I'm in high school still, but in reality I'm just blessed with a ridiculously generous family. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLSigman Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Dad gave me the $250 VISA card his work gave him. It works out with our various family issues. So far he's gotten my house cat food, a bunch of gluten free stuff from King Arthur Flour, a new silver chain to replace one I broke earlier this year, Skyrim remastered for PS4, a ticket to Rogue One and theater snacks, and a handful of games from Steam that were on sale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zimbra Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 We got a new TV to replace the one that died 2 weeks ago, an Amazon Fire TV, the new Zadie Smith book, a Kohl's gift card, a KU shirt, and a couple of Wisconsin pint glasses. The big gift was my future in-laws buying us tickets for Hamilton in Chicago on my fiancee's birthday. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cwoy2j Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I told everyone to get me baby clothes as my wife and I are expecting a boy next May. Got a lot of nice stuff so we won't have to really buy any baby clothes for at least a year. For myself, my wife got me a new water pik. I'm a big tooth Nazi so I was super psyched for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gatling Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 I got three Tom Clancy/Jack Ryan/Jack Ryan Jr. hardbacks by Mark Greaney, X-Men:Apocolypse and Thor: The Dark World Blu Rays, burlap wrapped lighted deer and a sleigh plus the start of a nativity set to put out in the yard next Christmas from my daughter(she refused to let my wife take any credit because she picked them out all by herself), adjustable wrenches/pipe wrench/vice grips/bar clamps to add to my growing tool collection, a couple of fast food gifts cards, cash from Grandma, a 48 count box of Ferrero Rocher. The big present comes Wednesday. I bought my wife a new LG V20 phone on Thanksgiving through Sprint, on a promotion they had where you got a free 43" LG 4k HD Smart tv. I got an e-mail last Wednesday that said due to higher than expected volume, they didn't have enough tv's to meet demand, so I would get a $450 Best Buy e-gift card instead for the value of the tv. It came on Thursday, and I was able to order a 50" Westinghouse 4K HD Smart tv plus a new Blu Ray player for just over what the card was for($7 and change out of my pocket). So Wednesday I'm moving the current living room tv and blu ray player to our bedroom, our bedroom tv to my daughter's room, and my daughter's old tv goes to her room at my parents house. Win-win-win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustJay Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I got 1 Mario silver figurine, a shy guy figurine, Zelda collectible glass, a Zelda shirt, and Zelda lounge pants, all from my cousin. My aunt and uncle got me sweatpants, a long sleeve Bengals shirt, a plain black sweatshirt, and a Steam gift card which I preceded to buy, Hand of Fate, Forced Showdown, and Tales of Maj'Eyal. My daughters got my Borderlands 2 GOTY and Wasteland Workshop DLC for FO4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Campbell Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Well, first I got a horrible stomach bug that left me unable to even keep down water. I spent a good 12 hours, from Saturday night until Sunday morning on the couch and running back and fourth to the bathroom. The wife and I always have a debate/argument about me not wanting to go to breakfast at her parents, because I always work on X-mas eve night, and am tired. But, this year, work took one look at me and told me to go home, and the wife had no problem with me not going. The wife bought me a Zach Miller Jersey (Chicago Bears #86) The older daughter got me a pair of Batman fleece PJs, which are actually really f'n comfy. The younger one got me a Bears plastic drinking cup. The in-laws gave us two $25 Regal Cinema cards, and two $50 restaurant cards. My mother got us each a $50 MasterCard, got me a case of Leinenkugal Bavarian Dunkel, and the whole family a set of VR goggles. My sister got the wife and I a big case of Gourmet popcorn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
