Our family hasn't opened our gifts yet, but I already got $1000 from my rich grandparents, which equals out to a turbo, bov and wastegate!

Post your stuff so we can all drool over it.

My girlfriend got me a brand new Xbox 360 Elite! So now, once the old one gets replaced by Microsoft, I can use it on the upstairs TV as a media center. laugh.gif
Also, bunch of 360 games. Halo 3 (now i'm not tempted to buy RedZ's lol), Kane & Lynch, Assassins Creed, and the two that came with the Elite: Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Forza 2.
She also got me Mario Party for Nintendo DS... A big RC helicopter... A workbench for the garage, with pegboard... a Wii Zapper...
and this..:

I just ask for money. It's the easiest and I can get whatever I want with it. cool.gif and COD4 is really really good.

$1000? Holy shit..

I always just ask for money also, or really small stuff. I got socks, a belt, an SD card for my phone, new sheets, a snow brush, and like $250.

I got a good sleeping bag and some socks, and some good lined work pants as well. I'll be exchanging gifts with my gf in a few days when i see her.

Socks, I'm getting a new Garrett journal bearing turbo (~$600), and will be hopefully be finding a used tial w/g and haven't quite decided on the bov yet, but hopefully a good used deal. There was a deltagate that just went on EXD for $65.
