Among one of my gifts was a Radio Shack card, and let me tell you, you can't buy SHIT with one of those. I bought a battery for a 3-4 year-old 2ghz cordless phone and spent about 28 dollars. (Card was only 30 USD)

But Radio Shack just sucks in general, they're still selling a PS2 San Andreas for 50-55 dollars I believe.

$170, Ugly Green Sweater, Cool Striped Sweater (from Express), Gloves, Sunglasses, Chair-thing, Case for my laptop, and the notebooks of Albert Camus ). Oh and I got an iPod nano too. I wanted a Wii but didn't even try to ask for one, they're STILL impossible to get.

I actually think I did pretty good things Christmas. I got scarves and gloves for my mom, sweater for my brother, OSU stuff for my grampa, and some nice things for my friends.

So for christmas I got my family a board game cause we are a family that plays them. For my girlfriend I still haven't gotten anything yet because I haven't had time. For Christmas I got a Dell inspiron 1521, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for Wii, Sonic and the Secret Rings for Wii, a wii zapper, a roll-up piano, a razor kit thing, a necklace, like $150 cash, some gift cards, and I am pretty sure that is about it. I was hoping for at least one WoW time card but I have money to buy one.

Since I'm moving out, my family mostly gave me piece of crap furniture that none of them every use as an excuse to spend nothing on me, but inclusive I got a fair bit of chocolate too which wasn't too bad.

I bought my girlfriend a 4GB Ipod Nano since she only has a shuffle, and it's actually mine anyway.

hmmm, what else?

Clothes, underwear and deodorant, my family like sending across very distinct messages about how I live.

A good friend of mine and I ran all over town futon shopping for me yesterday. We were at his house later in the day looking on craigslist and found one and picked it up that night. When we brought it to my house he's all "Merry Christmas!" and just left before I could pay him back for it.

It looks like I got a post Christmas haul this year. I got a box set of Cool Water cologne, some clothes, some money, and possibly a PSP. I'm getting all these via after holiday sales, but I'm grateful as hell because I thought I wasn't going to get anything.

I got some money, a dvd of Leon: The Professional, a complete car care kit for my Porsche, a set of towels, a DKNY sweater, comfy slippers, and a $50 gift card to Trader Joes (for those non Americans here, it's sort of a organic/cultural food store)
