Title: Christmas - what did you GIVE?
Post by: Hot_Dog on December 26, 2012, 07:49:47 am

I volunteer at an orphanage, and the children wanted the chocolate balls with the little toys inside of them!  So I bought some for their Christmas gift.

Well, i guess not many of us could have given a nicer gift then you did, that's wonderful :o

i got my dad those bike handlebars, like these:

we only give a present to one person each, we write our names on a paper, put them in a jar and pick one, so that everyone gets a gift, and no useless cheap stuff is bought. this way you can buy one nice gift, and everyone is more happy than with 4 small things you only use for one day...

I ended up making some good use of Steams "send as gift" feature. With it, I got my brother Universe Sandbox (http://universesandbox.com/) and my dad Command and Conquer 4 :P

Well, I gave my mom a record (ya know: vinyl), my dad a tee shirt (TARDIS on it), my sis an apron with a cheat sheet for cooking/baking on it, and my bro a reference set that I got for a buck at the local library's book sale.

I had some unused Steam keys for games I already have, so I gave them to my bro. Saints Row: The Third and Metro 2033, I guess he was pretty happy.
