Dan Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Early Christmas in the Toland household, what with family and traveling obligations. Made out like a bandit so far. Got the six-foot version of Tom Baker's scarf, a Captain America wallet (a really nice one), and the Who 50th Anniversary Monopoly set.

Missy Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 For Hanukkah Shana bought me The Dark Knight Rises on Blu-ray. We're celebrating a belated Hanukkah with her family this weekend, and then my families' Christmas parties next week, so I'll update this shortly.

dc20willsave Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 As of right now, Bestie Matt has gotten me a Deep Fryer and a couple of Christmas DVDs that I probably won't touch but it's the thought that counts. Roomie Yogi got me a Muppets T-shirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuaveStar Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 A new pair of boots. Which I really needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venneh Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 I've gotten a few small things from my bosses and coworkers (popcorn, a pin, chocolate, etc), and some horribly amusing lime green napkins from the office White Elephant so far. En route to the grandparents' today for extended family Christmas, and then Monday is with my mom, and Tuesday with my dad. Also, excellent choice, James - one enables the other.

Koete Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Since we have extended family Christmas on both sides of the family coming up, we had a family Christmas yesterday. I got Kirby: King of Comics by Mark Evanier, a Minecraft pickaxe bottle opener, two Avengers glasses, a new pair of shoes, and a bunch of clothes. My favorite gift so far is this piece of wall decor made to look like old film reels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and my cousin's pregnant, thus putting the onus off my youngest aunt and uncle for children. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missy Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 Blu-rays The Avengers Dick Tracy Safety Not Guaranteed A modem / router On top of other things, Shana got the two Cards Against Humanity expansion packs, and I bought her the 2012 Christmas booster pack.

Stavros Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 My old housemates gave me some homemade german cakes, christmas cake and raspberry sauce. However the best bit was when I have their two year old daughter her present which she tore open instantly to find three animal puppets which she then insisted we play with for the next two hours. Awesome feeling to get something like that right. Plus it was super-cute watching a little girl trying to play with three puppets until she realises she only has two hands and needs to give at least one to someone else.

KnightWing Posted December 25, 2012 Report Share Posted December 25, 2012 This year both my 4-year-old iPhone and my ten-year-old TV broke (with no way for me to replace them), so my entire family chipped in and got me a shiny new iPhone 5 and $300 with which to buy the TV of my choice. Oh, and the complete STAS box set for good measure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
