Default What's the best Christmas present you received this year?

Thank you to brownah for my limited edition etnies shoes from the movie Clerks with Jay and Silent Bob on the insoles. only 200 pairs were made.... Now I'm afraid to wear them

I've been looking to add some color to my living room so Santa brought me 3 vinyl albums framed from one of my favorite bands. Other than that I got socks, underwear, towels, random bathroom stuff, etc. Christmas just ain't what it use to be!

and one massive cat condo!

I'm taking the title to mean of all time, so my fav/most memorable was the Richocet Racers set I got when I was 6. Most memorable because I found it in my parents closet even though I had asked Santa for it.



This year I'm hoping my best present is a little belated and comes in the form of a new contract next week.

These are two of my favourites: http://instagr.am/p/tPCR/

The robot is a little key chain that is a headphone jack splitter.

Also got The Pacific and Season 1 of Modern Family.

I got some nice goodies, but for me the highlight was seeing my two year old niece wigging out while opening her gifts

I have a couple more Christmases to attend, but from the first one, the best present was the gift certificate to this nice spa in Toronto that I've always wanted to try. I'm really looking forward to it.

My Apple TV is a clear cut first for me, but my wife got me this hoodie with earphones build right in and the cable comes right out in the pocket that is a close second.

I am so easy to please.

A tie between a Car Starter and a mini-fridge. Those were my two "big" gifts this Christmas.

It's not possible for me to pick a favorite since I received nothing.

I' m having a hard time choosing a favorite from all Reggies's gifts. I guess he's finally realized they're missing.

I opened up a present from my mom to pull out a stuffed zebra! Confused, I dug deeper and pulled out a book- "Chasing Zebras: The Unofficial Guide to House, MD" (my favourite TV show!) I really got a chuckle out of that!

Also, my dad gave me a Heritage Classic jersey! Two-way tie for best present and best parent!

I didn't get any Christmas presents this year. But me, my mom and my bro had a nice, homemade family dinner. I guess that is what the holidays are all about.

My wife continues to out do herself.

Last year was a Trevor Linden Signed jersey, and this year she got me a Markus Naslund signed Jersey that was wrapped around a Pavel Bure signed Jersey.

A slightly used yet fully functional extension cord. Weird thing is my buddy said not to ask where he got it ...
