I got:
Carver C-1 preamp
Carver m400a amp
007 DVD box set
clothes, socks, underwear
CC giftcard and some misc goodies.

How'd everyone else do?

I'm thinking on how to employ my 'new' goodies. I will eventually set up another 2ch rig but for now, the C-1 will go into the HS rig. The m400a will run the fronts in my HT while he m0.5t will biamp my center (not to shabby for a dude who doesn't care about HT, eh? :rolleyes: )

    Not too much interesting. I got alot of little stuff. Clothes that I need. Some gift cards. Some cash. A model of a TVR Speed 12 and a radio controlled ATV. Looks pretty spiffy. I have to charge the battery though.

    I like to give gifts more than I like to get them anymore. It's soi much more fun seeing the looks on peoples faces when they unwrap your gift to them. I'm good at getting gifts for people that get the "WHOA! Factor" going!

Well we never did get the money but my father-inlaw and my parents pitched in and made me very happy this year!! My kids on the other hand are spoiled from all sides of the family and got sooo much clothes and toys we actually have to plan on changing toys and clothes out old/for new to make room.

    BestBuy. I'm pretty sure it was just released. My wife saw it listed in one of my S&Vs and said how much she'd like it. I'm sure I will too.:)

    Consider this though, George is all of 4'10", 90lbs. In a bar fight, he could hit you with an overhand left to the balls. ;)
