Life What awesome gifts did you give for Christmas this year?

02:14 AM

My mom is a kitchen fiend. Gave her some warming/service trays and other kitchen gadgets. My wife has turned into a fitness fanatic this year so I got her lots of new clothes, some for working out in but most because she's dropped from a "6" to a "4". Also got her a TRX and an iPod which should be enjoyable while she works out. Got my daughter typical stuff kids want - an MP3 player, some educational items, and some matching penguin PJ's to wear along with her mother's penguin PJ's.

Sent a new bike and some basketballs up to the local PTA so they could distribute to local families in need. Bought some things for the family of a gal who works for me. She's a single mother of 5 and I know what she makes part-time and I know it's not enough to raise her family.

Edit: Don't want credit, rep or anything else but I did think this thread was missing at the Planet. We always talk about the crap we got. I'm just as selfish as the next guy but I have a lot of fun giving stuff as well.

Phobia made Bob Dole's wife fat so Bob Dole bought her 7 new pair of sweat pants. Bought a sweet Crate V50 for a friend who helps Bob Dole out around the house (projects, dog sitting, etc.), bought 3 or 4 random drive thru meals for people who were next in line, and tipped 2 of Bob Dole's favorite bartenders $100 each on a < $6 dollar tab. Also gave away some used stuff rather than selling it.

I was impressed until I realized you didn't have to buy for a wife or kids. I'm sure your bartenders appreciated it. That's very cool and I'll bet they put it to good use for their own Christmases.

Your wife mentioned that too but she said she's used to it unless you're out of town.
