Christmas Presents

Post Reply New Topic

Do you guys get any presents?

Sure, though the amount fell a lot as I grew up.

Yup! Jewelry, makeup, plushies, clothes, video games, books, skincare stuff, bags, shoes, keychains, Funko Pops, headphones and a coloring book, perfume, makeup brushes, Nightmare Before Christmas stuff, Pokemon stuff, Switch Lite, pajamas etc....

I ended up with 60 presents.

The only presents I got this year personally were socks, chocolate and toiletries.

Neither myself nor my partner had money to spare on each other this year, and outside of him I have very few people close enough to buy me a gift.

It suits me fine, I find gift giving and receiving tricky.

I got a present from my grandmother & aunts, I got a blanket, I don’t know if I like it, it made in China, I hate China. I got 2 presents from my neighbors, I got tin cans of cocoa powder & marshmallow, my cat got a present too, a grass hunting box, she don’t like it.

I got a steel mug from the military surplus store, a first-aid kit to put in the automobile, and a little money to buy my textbooks for going to college--so I'm very happy about that! Jackpot.

My biggest regret is that I don't have any Christmas cards to send out, or that I forget to get presents for people.

Me & my girlfriend got some checks & giftcards from my parents. Which is really nice of them cuz my parents spent a bit of money on us for Christmas & they also had given us a lot of money to help us move a couple months ago. I also got some cash from my girlfriend's family which is what I really want anyways. I need to buy a new phone cuz mine fell & quit working around ThanxGiving. My phone was pretty old anyways & I figure all the money I got for Christmas would cover the cost of any phone I may decide to get. I'm still not entirely sure which phone I want thou.

got a wok, bamboo go set, kosdeg copper water bottle, the food of sichuan by fuchsia dunlop, bangkok: recipes and stories from the heart of thailand by leela punyaratabandhu, integrated chinese: textbook - level 1 - part 2, and digital pre-order for “nioh 2”.

A couple of Astronomy texts, some TTRPG materials, socks, a disaster "Go-Kit", an iambic keyer, and several boxes of chocolates and dried fruit.  No holodeck passes, fissionable materials or death-rays ... again ...
