Not only did I get everything that I've listed, but I also have a very interesting and special story to tell:

My dad and I were out finishing our Christmas shopping and we went to our local grocery store to pick up an Amazon gift card for me, when I noticed that we had parked across from one of our local new stations' cars. We went inside to get the gift card, pay for it and head home when I saw someone from the news station that was there with us. It was someone that I had seen on TV a lot when I was little. I had always wanted to meet him, but sadly it never happened, not even when I was a teenager... That is, up until this point. He was with his crew for a bit until he went off on his own to meet with other people in the store. I was at the checkout with my dad paying for my gift card and I told him that someone we've seen on TV was here with us, but he didn't see who it was at first until I saw the guy again. I told my dad to look, and he did. I then told him that I wanted to see the guy before we left, and we did, after paying for my Amazon gift card. I walked excitedly over to the guy and said hi to him. He was very excited to see me and my dad, then the two of us (me and the guy) gave each other a thumbs up, two high fives, and had two pictures taken together.

Overall, I've had an absolutely fantastic Christmas... One that I will definitely never forget.

Geez, Blitz!  You sure got a lot of stuff!  Do you have a lot of relatives or something?

Anyways, that's a cool story!  Congrats on meeting whoever it was.

Yes, but I only spend time at my uncle (my dad's brother) and my aunt's house for Christmas aside from my own house.

$40

Starbound (PC)

Personal blender

Technically, Starbound isn't a gift given to me as I purchased it for myself.

[Flathead770]

I got some chocolate, clothes, a bit of money, a controller for my switch and Pokemon Ultra Sun from my friend (we have a history of buying each other the Pokemon games for Christmas when they come out).

That sounds pretty cool Blitz! I've bumped into my city's meteorologist before but that's about it.

Nice. To be more specific, the guy that I was referring to in my story was one of my local new stations' mascot. He did the school closings when I was little and when I was a teenager. I'm not sure if he still does it or not though. I can show you the two of us together, if you want.

This year I received about $50 in Buffalo Wild Wings gift cards, three bottles of mead, and a pair of sports headphones. All of the gifts were greatly appreciated except for the "gift" of the stomach flu which my entire family caught from my nephew.  Thankfully we are all better now.

Mostly stuff for my apartment.  I got gift cards and used them at the antique store to buy the following:

Two Orient Express Paris-Istanbul brass lamps like this one.

A Kundo anniversary clock similar to this one.

A small Bulova brass clock (can't find a similar picture online) for my dresser and a small organizer tray.  Yeah, I like brass.

I also bought a chair for the corner next to my bed and some wall art for the living room.
