Time to once again start this thread because I know many families exchange presents on Christmas Eve. We do ours tomorrow, but my girl and I went ahead and exchanged today. She got me the HD-DVD player for my 360. I bought the Bourne Supremacy today to check it out and it looks freaking sweet! So what'd you get? Merry Christmas!
I got a brand new Official Thread Nazi Badge: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=139916 sorry
- Best Buy gift card - calendar - picture frame - towels, for my new apartment Haven't done the big family exchanging yet, and I don't know what I'll get. I didn't ask for anything, as usual.
I'm getting Wii Madden 08 and Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles, a Wii zapper, and for the first time in years, a gift that I have no clue what it is... I can't wait!!!
I did a lot of giving instead of receiving. I like to see the expression on people's face. (or someone particular) That's good enough for me. I got my friend that Mariah Carey fragrance. She damn near broke my neck.
-Mizuno Wave Rider 10s -$100 Visa Gift Card -$50 iTunes Card -$1000 Bucks -Steve Madden Fyrebyrd Sneakers (white) -Kenneth Cole Reaction Punchua Loafers (black) -$25 Spec's Gift Card -$50 Luby's Gift Card -Alfani Blazer (brown) -2 Polo Sweaters (grey/navy) -One Big Ass Kitchenware Set (new silverware, dishware, pots/pans, glassware) Wow didn't realize it til I typed it out but I got a good haul this year.
I hate buying presents. I never know what to buy or what would the other person like. So I usually buy some gift cards or something but that's like a cop out, imo. The irony is that most people I know are the same way and couldn't care less. I don't know why I do. What did I get? A box of chocolates from a neighbor. I'm abroad and don't really know anyone here.
I might get a few other things, but this is pretty much it: $200 3 Arkansas Razorbacks Tshirts Arkansas razorbacks rug/doormat Arkansas razorbacks gym shorts hiking boots some polo shirt some dress shirt a kodak digital camera/memory card University of Arkansas men's hoops season tickets $50 Target card $50 wal mart card one of those little automatic massage thingies some electric duster tool some plastic cups socks Oh yeah, also, a couple days before Christmas I went down to the casinos in Shreveport and various people gave me about $500 while I played poker. I have an uncle that can be really crazy with presents, like one year he might give me $500 bucks and the next year $25 bucks (or nothing). I don't know if he'll do anything for me or not this year...but I'm not counting on getting anything from him this year.
haven't done any exchanges yet, but I got the best XMas gift on Friday I went to the Sportsradio 610 morning show Xmas part and I won.... FIVE HUNDRED BUCKS CASH!!!! Xmas started early for me
Meet the Robinson's Night at the Museum HP 5 DVD 2 Cookbooks George Foreman Grill w/ detachable trays $30 Border's gift Card $30 Alamo Drafthouse Gift Card Beer at Armadillo Bazaar Beer at Gingerman Beer at Legend's during Rockets game Dim Sum for lunch Longhorn antenae ball BBQ set Suade jacket Beach Boys CD Garden Gnome dressed in UT apparrel Maroon dress shirt as a gag gift Danny Dozer puzzle for 3 yr old(white elephant) Dominoes Christmas Ornaments Annoying stuffed parot that sqauks when grabbed
Probably won't get much this year as the parents focus more on the grandchildren each and every year. So far, I've only exchanged gifts with the girl and she got me a nice dress shirt, an awesome Rockets beer mug (not bad from a Spurs fan!) and a few pictures of us in nice frames since I mentioned I wanted that for my desk. This is going to sound cheesy and I'm sure I'll catch some flack for it on a BBS dominated by guys, but my ultimate Christmas present has been the girl who gave me those things. I never in a million years thought that an Aggie, Spurs and Cowboys fan would be the best thing to ever happen to me, but God loves to throw us curveballs sometimes. Merry Christmas everyone. If yours is half as great as mine, consider yourself lucky!
