I as going to post this earlier, but it occurred to me there may be people who have friends or relatives who visit this board, so you may not want to post what you're getting them.

So what did you get people and what did they think of it? This is what I got for people (although I can't say what they thought of it since, due to scheduling difficulties I won't be celebrating Christmas for another week):

I got my mom a 170 pcs art set (paints, pastels, and what-not), and a pad of 24" by 18" drawing paper.

I got my oldest sister (she's 26) some plush toys related to the "Lupin" series, although once I got them I realized they were smaller than I thought so I'll get her something to go along with it

For my other older sister (she's 24), I got a case of hawaiin coffee. There's like 100 and some odd 3 oz packs in a huge box, I got a case for myself as well.

I was going to get my younger sister (she's 18) a GBA, and even got so far as shopping around for one, when I realized how stupid that was. She had 3 of her fingers on her right hand amputated a few months back after getting them caught in a punch press. Next year I'll get her a Revolution though, since that only requires one hand. So this year I'll get her some fudge, I'll order it today so it will be fresh when I give it to her.

I got my grandpa a bunch of old Fate magazines (late 40's through late 70's). Although I actually got them for his birthday, and just didn't have a chance to give them to him, since I got them though I've read them all, they're fun to read as long as you don't take them to seriously.

I got my niece (she's 4) a set of six dvd's of old cartoons. She has two right now, and last time I was over there she played them over so many times I had the "Little Lulu" theme stuck in my head for a week.

I'm still stumped on what to get my grandma, all I know for certain that she likes is the Beatles, and I got here all their albums last year. Oh well I'll come up with something, I got a week.

I bought everything on eBay, because I'm both lazy and cheap, so it works out pretty well.

edit: better?

A flying kick to the ovaries.

Why is your layout a scroll layout? IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE

I got me Mario Kart DS , a lamp, a matress cover , a fan with cool spinny lights on it, candy, a lottery ticket (won 3 bucks, yay), an RC car, various photos and clothes, more candy, and a partridge in a pear tree. Oddly enough, no money.

And a TV stand I forgot about.

Because it annoys me when people post wide images and long strings of text that stretch out the page, so to avoid doing it my self, I set the overflow value on my div to auto. Ordinarily, my posts aren't long enough to make vertical scrollbar, but if it helps I'll edit my post so it doesn't make one this time.

PS2 - Slim one(damn its tiny lol)
dragon quest VIII(FF12 demo was ok...although square seems to have butchered another Final fantasy)
Ratched Deadlocked
Ratchet and clank up your arsenal(came with the PS2, gonna sell it, since I already beat it before)
Trivial Pursuit DVD Pop Culture 2
one of those simon things
couple DVD's(old $7 ones)
and finally tons of candy and stuff in my stocking.

all in all, I say a very good christmas(thats not including what my brothers got, although the PS2 was for all of us.)

I never get anything for my brothers or parents, although I dont really have much money so I probably will when I get a job and start getting my own money.
