Did you get something you've been wanting for quite some time? Did you get something absolutely horrendous that you plan to destroy? Let us know.

    I got a Garmin 306 Forerunner GPS fitness watch that I've wanted for a while. I asked for it last year, and then later told my parents to not get it since it was 300 dollars. This year I asked again, and the price had dropped to around half, and I still didn't expect to get it from them but they did get it! :)

    Very nice to have support for my weightloss, but also my running training. Never once in my training for a half marathon have they said "there's no way you can do that".. and they are showing that as well with this gift.

    I got a sweater that is a size too small from my mother-in-law. This happens every Christmas.

    Cool new Adidas jacket from the gf, and new sunglasses when I actually go and pick them out! :)

    Lots of gift cards from my parents and extended fam. Same as most years, but that's how I like it. Now I can buy some new shoes and get some things that I want and people don't have to worry about getting it for me :)
