Holiday Haul 2020 - Post your goods!!

[Rodney McKay]

Just Marvel's Avengers that I picked up on Black Friday. Trying to keep my spending to a minimum this year.

Game is actually really good, but I definitely wouldn't have paid full price for it with how buggy it was (seems a lot better now).
Already has a new free character and new story content and now I'm just having fun leveling up all the characters.

I bought a house via mortgage and moved in on the 18th December so that really feels like a Christmas present to myself :)

Ended up getting cash and vouchers so i can buy stuff i need for the place, mostly things for furnishing the place.

No gaming stuff but i think I'll use some of the cash to buy Immortals Fenyx Rising on Xbox in the sale.

$50 Amazon gift card, and otherwise it's gifts for my whole family, like some nice chocolates, Codenames Duet for all of us, etc.

We got our daughter a full MLP set, and some extras, 6 LOLs, a modelling clay set, coloring & activity books, a polly pocket set, various comfortable clothes, and more. She's been playing non-stop for 5 hours so far.

I don't think I will even buy myself anything, there's not really anything I want.

I got over $3500 in bonuses from work this month so I ain't mad.

 

[Hailinel]

I got Yakuza: Like a Dragon, the Japanese version of the Super Mario Bros. Game & Watch (the only real difference that I can tell, other than the packaging, is that it has the Japanese Super Mario Bros. 2 under it's original name instead of the Lost Levels), and the D&D rulebook Tasha's Cauldron of Everything. Not a bad haul at all!

 

[DC5remy]

Mario maker 2

Mario all stars

ps5 duel charger

 

[Stencil]

I got a jigglypuff amiibo, a jigglypuff trading card from the jungle set, jigglypuff socks, and a jigglypuff hat. Which doesnt fit :( still cool tho

 

[JigglesBunny]

You've gotta be kidding me.

 

[ornery]

Fiancée got me the DualSense charging station 🔥

 

[Deleted member 3017]

Lots of gift cards
Wife promised me a PS5 and 2 games as soon as I can find one

So I'm happy. I battled Covid all this month, so I'm ready to move on from 2020.

Very cool. What is the Digital Content access?

Christmas was pretty light for me this year, which is fine, as I didn't really want anything. My wife got me a couple of t-shirts and my mom sent us a $125 Wal-Mart gift card.

What made my Christmas was seeing my son when he got his present from me (a Switch Lite with Age of Calamity)



That video brought me to tears when my ex sent it to me.

Made me tear up also! That look was priceless. Thanks for sharing!

Yeah this one and the one Achtung posted pulled some strings for me. Seeing the joy and amazement in a kids face when they get something they were not expecting is priceless.

I know how it feels to lose a family member at Christmas time. A few years ago (been a while), my grandma passed away around christmas time. It was going to be her last christmas as she had cancer; well, that didn't work out and she passed away a couple of days before christmas. That was a tough christmas; however, as a family, we got through it and she'll always be in our hearts, especially at Christmas.

Click to shrink...

I'm sorry to hear you had a similar situation as well, but yeah we will get through it. Thats why even though we dont really have anything present wise for christmas this year I'm glad I at least got out of the hospital in time to spend the day with my family.

 

[Captain Wreckus]

useful.

The way this year has gone, spending the day with your family is better than any gift IMO.

 

[MercuryLS]

PS5
Charging dock
Extra controller
Sonos Beam
Samsung T5 SSD
Hyperx cloud flight alpha s headphones
Some games

Thank god for selling stuff and pc optimum points.

 

[RecRoulette]

I bought myself an Astro City Mini and I got a PSN gift card which I used to buy Ketsui on PSN. Pretty rad game.

Absolutely, getting to go back home in time trumps any gift I could have received.

Kids are amazing. Great gift btw.

 

[Damaniel]

An Oculus Quest 2 (not a fan of Facebook but Beat Saber is fucking awesome) and a Raspberry Pi 400.

 

[reKon]

I gave my sister and brother in law an Amazon fire TV cube and Roborock Vacuum. Excited for them to play around with it.

Love getting things I know people will use a lot.

That's a sealed copy of Mark of the Wolves for Neo Geo AES? How much thousands of dollars did you pay?

 

[Ascenion]

My mom paid down a significant portion of my debt

 

[aerie]

A very nice pair of jeans and a copy of Watch Dogs Legion, which I am really enjoying so far (digital copy, so no pics, sorry).

I'll be getting a PS5 with a few games as part of a Christmas present, just have to actually be able to buy one.

 

[thenexus6]

£35 amazon gift card
Extended Mouse pad
Yakuza Collection
Mindhunter book
Money & random food/drink stuff

 

[Mik3F]

Gaming wise I got the following

SteelSeries Artic Wireless Headset for the PS5
Venom Single Charger Dock for the PS5
£70 PSN Credit, which I bought Sackboy with
£60 Cash, which I ordered a second dualsense controller with

 

[Arta]

Friends don't give me gaming gifts since I'm all digital.

Gave these video games and board games to a friend of mine and his brother's family. They each have three kids so that should be good for them should we enter lockdown again.

Thank goodness for Target's Black Friday B2G1F and their refund policy.

 

[Ryutaryi]

I got some slippers, a jacket, some peppermint chocolate, and a bit of spending money this year. Nothing extravagant like a lot of posts here, but it was still very nice

 

[linkboy]

He had no clue. What's funny is my parents had bought him a copy of Minecraft for it and he opened it for his birthday (was supposed be for Christmas) to be a earlier this week (his birthday is Dec 20th) and didn't put two and two together.

 

[Blackie]

I got cash and a PS5 controller! I don't have a PS5 but am more than happy to make this my main pc controller. Very happy :D

 

[Sambodianninja]

Picked up a PS5 a few days ago for myself and just now playing with it.
My wife got me a 20mm 1.8 Nikkor Z lens. An oem sunshade for my new car, along with an ///M license plate frame. I'm happy.

 

[Lueken]

I asked for a PS5 knowing it would not happen based on its availability. My wife told me she was unable to find one, and we both agreed to search in 2021. No big deal there, and I am happy she did not go the scalping route.

I did get an air fryer, which I will use often. Plus my sock drawer was thankfully replenished because I was running out of socks without holes.

More importantly, my daughter loved her room redesign. New bed, painted walls, little desk, and a chair. First Christmas where she didn't get a doll or stuff animal. She's getting old, hahaha.

Benefits of missing a generation!

Quite happy with this haul!

 

[MrNewVegas]

I paid $700CAD for the pair.

seems like a decent price

 

[MrNewVegas]

Click to shrink...

Yeah, I felt like I wouldn't find a price like that again. Due to living in Canada buying expensive games like that from the States I get hit with massive customs charges which kills any deals from the US. So I was lucky to find a person selling in Canada.

 

[blackMamba1187]

I got: Akira and Tenet 4k blurays, some xbox space bucks and some clothes from family. Pretty sweet.

 

[Xando]

Only thing i got were AirPod Pros. The times I'd get games for christmas are mostly over as i'll just buy whatever i want.

 

[Kurumi]

Finally got a LG CX. Had a big smile on my face when I got that. Can't wait to see how good it looks while playing on my PC and PS5. Unfortunately I won't be able to set it up and try it out until I move into a new house which will be soon.

I also got Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.

 

[Fleet of Foot]

I got two games:

1. Age of Calamity.
2. Immortals Fenyx Rising for Series X.

Not sure which to play first because I want to play them both.

 

[Deleted member 54073]

I got some awesome stuff this year which I'm very grateful for. My parents paid for a PS5 as a joint birthday/christmas gift this year and I got these goodies today from family and friends!:

 

[BobLoblaw]

I didn't get anything, but I'm in the process of building my beastly PC. Should be done in another hour or two. Merry Christmas all!

 

[hanmik]

Got myself a Dualsense and the charger .. BUT 2020 has been fucked up for me. Got diagnosed with a super rare disease called IgG4 disease. A blood disease that is attacking my organs.. lungs, testicles etc. I am on strong meds to fight this shit, but it is so rare that no-one knows whether it will help or not..
I was planning to get myself a PlayStation 5, but somehow life fucked me again. No PS5 here for another couple of weeks/months..

But at least I have the Dualsense to hold and pretend to play on a ps5.. lol

Fuck 2020..

 

[aiswyda]

I got some PSN cash that I used to grab Ghost of Tsushima, and used some Christmas money to grab FF13 on steam for games. My SO + my secret santa got me some fun gaming merch from Etsy I adore...Flayn is my fav FE3H character, and I've been stickering our PC (avoiding the vents ofc). The pins are super cute as well, can't wait to add them to my lil' con bag.

But, for me, the most exciting thing is what I got someone else. My SO loves Vergil from Devil May Cry and has spent the last few months joking about that terribly expensive Vergil jacket Capcom was selling. So, I decided to get him a substantially less expensive version of DMC5's Vergil's jacket. He loved it so much he made a joke christmas card with it to send to our friends.

Spoiler: him in his vergil jacket

(i ofc got his ok b4 I shared haha)

 

[Gamer4life]

No games actually even though they where the only things on the list.
Got a $100 VISA GC, $50 Barnes n Noble GC, $100 cash, 12inch Dewalt battery chainsaw, 6 quart Emril Air Fryer, UV phone sanitizer, safety glasses for chainsaw use, new designer face masks, two under cabinet lighting kits with rechargeable battery and remotes, socks and a knee therapy compression gel band. Also a 20,000mah car battery starter/charging station/tire inflation device.
