Our stockings over the fireplace always get filled with personal hygene stuff like deodorant, razors, cheap cologne, etc. Well, I hope my family isn't trying to send me a message, because this is ridiculous (I got the Axe deodorant stick today):

That's a lot of deodorant

I'm as materialistic as the next person (probably moreso), but posting pictures and itemizing (with dollar value) your Christmas presents is extremely lame.

:thumbsdown:

Well it is just posting what he got and a little break down. After all a lot of people here are geeks 😛 and like to know tihs sort of thing 😛

Me my Bday is 2 days after Xmas so 27th so I get a combo type of mix.

I go ta P910i from my parents and this months phone bill paid off even though it was small so that was very nice.

I also got £100 from my parents also.

£200 for 2 days work which I would normally get £70.

£50 to buy food and stuff as my parents are gone on holiday and are now flying over to ShangHai.

Bro wants to get me a nice designer suit but I've told him he can get me something else as he is a student and in debt.

My gf is going to get me a nice suit so thats good.

I don't expect much from presents and stuff and happy if I get something small. I have quite a lot of gadgets and stuff already that I have bought myself over the past 5yrs.

Nice haul OP 😎
