I finished off a bunker map for Zombie Panic I made for my brother and shoved it in a pretty bag along with a $15 microphone, since he plays a lot of online games and his laptop doesn't have a mic built in. I bought my other brother Left4Dead when it was on sale, which he is very happy with. I wish I got something for my good friend, though I am a complete bastard and went insane on the Steam holiday sale.
Spent about $75 sending steam gifts around
Spent about $30 on my dad, bought him some telescope accessories, he's into that sort of thing
About $40 on my mum, bought her a couple of books
$60 on my girlfriend, bought her a dress
And around $100 for all of my friends, bought them couple of books, and a couple of steam games.
So all in all im looking at about $305
I'd buy certain Facepunch members some steam games, if i could buy stuff online :Dawkins102:

My friends and I don't buy each other presents. We're hardcore like that.
I did, however, spend about $25 on my Mum, gave one of my sisters a second monitor, new video card and 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' DVD, and gave my other sister a $38 DVD.

I bought my friend Shadow of Chernobyl this morning, I have a couple more people to shop for. Fortunately I won't see them until the 31st, so I have a few days to hit up the post-christmas sales. I hate not having a job. :c
I cried and bought a gun
I spent 50 dollars total on my friends. I got 7 dollars in return in the form of a book.
FUCK YEAH I'M RICH MOTHERFUCKER. RICH IN KNOWLEDGE, FUCK, YOU CAN'T BEAT THAT!
Edit:
Also I don't have a job and have a total of 900$ in my bank account.
I was going to buy a stand mixer for my parents. (mostly for myself though i want one reaaaaal bad)
well you just can't buy any stand mixer, you need a fucking Kitchen Aid stand mixer. Preferably the Artisan. You can't substitute it.
So i know the damn things were expensive. I was going out to buy it a few days ago when they decided to have the crappiest sale ever. 10% off all appliances. Well even with 10% off 200$ isn't much.
I will fucking have you one day mixer!
So yeah i bought nothing.
[QUOTE=Painseeker;19189245]I bought my little brother a 360 Elite with 4 games, an extra controller, a controller charger and 1 year of live.
He...got me nothing... :frown:[/QUOTE]
What?!
I did the exact same thing, except with only 2 games, but only a better mic and wifi adapter.
I spent about $500 on my family and friends.
:smug:
i got a 4 gig flash drive and an old stereo from a friend and i'm gonna give him a used dvd drive
I got a laptop desk for christmas from my brother.
I got him a pillow and a belt because he loves pillows and desperately needs a new belt. Don't look at me like that, we spent the same damn amount.
Because everyone is broke now a days including myself. My friends and I agreed that Christmas will come a little late for us. Though I plan on getting one a 1TB Portable HDD because of her laptop being a shitty 40GB and an old fashioned Journal that looks pretty cool. The Journal itself is friggin 70 bucks though so she better be happy when I get it for her! Haha. As for my other friends though, they are a little more difficult.
I spent nothing I'm poor.
I got nothing for anyone.
I bought lunch for all my friends and myself at the Chinese buffet round these parts, about 50bucks
Oh and myself a few EVE online timecards, about 75 bucks.
