Post all the loot you managed to get during the 2006 x-mas/channakuah/kwanzaa/etc season here.

EDIT: I posted my list early, and Demios wanted this thread unlocked. So, fire away

Demios · Post by **Demios** » Sun Dec 24, 2006 7:35 pm

There is no reason to lock, some people already have some of their Christmas loots. They should be able to post, if they already have em.

adventure_of_link · Post by **adventure_of_link** » Sun Dec 24, 2006 7:36 pm

Oooh you're right, I forgot all about that

Unlocked, per Demios' request.

Joe Camacho · Post by **Joe Camacho** » Sun Dec 24, 2006 8:10 pm

It wasn't unlocked. I had to do it.

This year was not as cool as last year, but then again, I got a car last year.

400 dollars for clothes.
Batallion Wars.
Timesplitters 3.
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for GC.

I still need to get the present my father will give me tonight and the family gift exchange, but seriously, I don't hope much in the exchange.

Demios · Post by **Demios** » Sun Dec 24, 2006 8:18 pm

It was not unlocked cause I unlocked it and AOL locked it back after making his post.

Sounds like fun.

Can we do a ZBOARD secret-Santa thing next year? It would be much more awesome with a small community like this one.

A book and a pajama.

:/

I seriously need to go shopping after Christmas, the only problem is that I've got a grand total of €7.64 on me.

Demios · Post by **Demios** » Sun Dec 24, 2006 8:51 pm

For Christmas, I bought myself two new jeans. Ragged low rise boot cut levis ftw. A new cadet hat, advertising my love for Guinness. Bought a new pair of Vans. Six singlets, 3 boxers and 6 pairs of socks. Bought a pack of spiked half-hoop earrings. I take care of the shit I really want because I get shitty gifts. So far I have received one gift and I don't mind it. It's Penny Arcade's second book. I guess I get to see what shitty gifts I get tomorrow morning. Pictures later. I am predicting lots fo clothes that I am never ever going to wear/will donate to the goodwill around here.

So far, just one of those cheapie semi-official BD&A Wii stands...with a low-capacity 512M SD card (I have more 2GB 150x cards than I know what to do with already), rubber controller jacket, and dangerous wrist strap that cannot be tightened. I think this might be a great re-gift for my niece and nephew.

The Seagate is faster and handles better.
