i got my MBP which was an early gift and possibly a random bag of crap from woot.com (the server is too busy but i think i got thru)

For those of you that don't know, woot.com sells these random bags of crap for $1 and they are usually loaded with stuff that is worth more. One person got a Wii last time they sold these and another one recieved a 61" flat screen tv They sell out in seconds

A Pelican 1200 case, $300 from my parents for a new video camera, $100 from my grandparents, new ski poles and snow pants, a tin of Werthers Original, An Inconvenient Truth (DVD), and I think a $250 gift card to Future Shop. All in all quite nice. :D

1. $100 gift card for The Apple Store :D
2. Some socks
3. A Globe
4. $20 at Best Buy, $10 at Barnes and Noble
5. A few other miscellaneous small things

The Apple gift card is going to be used post-Macworld. If they come out with a new 12" Macbook or whatever, it will go towards that. Otherwise, I'll use it for Leopard or towards an iTV or something like that.

Thanks!

And bubbletea as a novelty is over-rated, but bubbletea as a drink is not. I think of it more like a smoothie than "OMGZ there are chewy bits in my drink LOLZ."

i had those tapioca pearls in my ice coffee, and it felt like i was slurping up tasteless boogers, but to each his own lol.

My iMac was a Christmas present... of sorts. Which I got months back (launch C2D :D ). But anywho, I also got...

Wii controller (though no console, preorder was placed in September too)
Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii version. again :eek: )
Ross Noble - Randomist. FOUR DVD's! he's treated us this time. Saw his show in Manchester a while ago and didn't stop laughing for a good week.
Futurama series 1 and 2, now have the entire set! :D The only American show that's really made me laugh, next to Family Guy of course.
Armageddon DVD... strange and surprising present but I love the film.
Spooks series 4. Best one yet IMO. Sort of a tradition to get Spooks every year.
CHOCOLATE. too much I reckon. Roses, Celebrations. I'm just under 10 stone and need fattening up anyways!
Calendar
£55 in cards


aaaaand! socks!

I don't wait for Xmas to get things I want:D. I get it when i want it. I know I am selfish and self centered.

Agreed!. I'm the hardest person to get stuff for, i usually have all i want way before christmas. So folks are forced to get me books, clothes or vouchers.

On that note i got a HUGE christmas family dinner (isn't that what its all about?), books, T-shirts, Shirts and a £100 voucher. As for what i got myself this season...well;

MacBook Pro

Treo 680

Bose in-ear headphones.

Merry Christmas to me!
