We had a thread on what we were giving so I figured why not, and made one for what everyone got this year.

Here's what I got so far from my parents and my brother.

$350 in checks
2 jars of salsa
Framed picture of my mom
Sweat pants
1 t-shirt
Charles Woodson Christmas tree ornament
WWE 13 X-Box
$50 in gas cards
Limited Collector's Edition Christopher Nolan's Batman Trilogy on bluray

Notice I said so far. That's because my family is hosting the family get together later today and my immediate family swaps what we got each other earlier in the day before everyone comes over.

Stormtrooper Lego Alarm Clock

Some Alcohol [A nice single malt whiskey, half of which is gone already after sitting up all night with my housemate]

I also have about 3kgs of bourbon and honey smoked ham my chef friend made which I have as leftovers.  I am going to become part pig.

Santa was very good to me this year.  TeddyR

I got the following cool stuff:

DVDs (Hawaii Five-O Seasons 2 and 3, Son of Flubber and The Avengers)
A foot spa
Lots of great threads especially several T-shirts, lounge pants, jeans, socks, gloves, and a hoodie.
Neutrogena self care sets (i have ezcema on my hands so that's useful for me)
Bath sets
An Cadbury Hot Chocolate Gift Set

All in all, it's the most gifts I've gotten since I was a teenager.

Several gift certificates for local stores
Cash
Assorted chocolates (including limited white Ferrero's. They are hard to track down in these parts)
Assorted imported spices (mostly stuff I requested for exotic dishes I'm trying to cook soon)
Home made jams in nice jars
Soft pâtés and other delicious sounding spreads, also in nice jars
No doubt the best X-mas present I got this year: huge fresh loaf of a specific farmer's bread. This crusty rustic bread is very special and baked in an outdoors stone oven by a woman from a small rural village. She doesn't own a bakery/store but sells the bread "private" after you make an order. She only baked a few over Christmas so I was lucky I got one. The bread is simply f-a-n-t-a-s-t-i-c. But I fear the quality will diminish if that woman ever decides to open for official business.

Can't beat food gifts, especially when your niece's fiance happens to be a chef cook.

I got some video games:  Mass Effect 3, Binary domain and Dragon's Dogma.

Some dress clothes for work.  Including some shoes that are a bit too stylish for stodgy old me - they'll be worn once and then discreetly make their way to the back of the closet I think. Smile

Big present was supposed to be a TV for our bedroom, but I was sick with a terrible cold for the second half of November and my wife bought it as a cheer-me-up present way back then.  Best part was seeing her come in the house with it - this huge box with two little feet visible underneath and a blond ponytail sticking up over the top  BounceGiggle  Anyhow I've been loving that.  Though it's so comfy watching movies on the bed that it's terribly hard to stay awake all the way to the end of this junk I watch  Smile

Not a whole lot, but not a lot I really need that I can't afford myself or easily obtain.

2 hot tub head rests
Cordless drill
Metal spatula for the grill
Carving knife and bbq fork, also for the grill
And I got myself an early Xmas present: I DRINK YOUR BLOOD DVD

Hope y'all had very happy holidays!

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
