The annual CHRISTMAS LOOT THREAD!!!

December 25, 2013, 10:51:59 AM

Hope everyone is having a very merry Christmas. I know it's not about the loot, and we should all be happy for good health, friends, family, etc, and we should all think about those who are less fortunate than ourselves. And believe me, I do. But while it isn't all about the loot, the loot is definitely a factor!So what'd Santa bring you all?

Myself:

iPad Air 32GB
A set of clamps (one can never have too many clamps)
A set of ratchet straps (one can never have too many ratchet straps)
Several books
Clothes
Slippers
New kevlar composite stock for my rifle
New hunting knife
25 pounds of cooked lobsters

Best of all, I got an early Christmas gift by way of a new job (back in October). And what makes this an early Christmas gift was the fact that I actually got Christmas gifts from work. At my last job the only thing we ever got for Christmas was a day off, and the cheap shager that owned the place only gave us that grudgingly. At the new place we get several (paid) days off, had a huge party at a luxury resort, and each got a gift bag. There were also several vacations given away, including a few to Disneyland, one to Greece, one to Mexico, and about a dozen to Boston (I didn't get one, it was a random drawing but I wasn't drawn). What I did get though, in the gift bag, was this:

LED animated "man cave" sign
Hot dog cooker (rollers on top, bun warmers below)
Steel cutout hockey player for the wall
Panoramic painting of the Boston Garden with the Bruins playing
Sweater
Hockey clock
Toronto Maple Leafs banner (gave this away)
$25 gift card to the liquor store (regifted this, I don't drink)

So the work swag was pretty much all "man cave" stuff. Which will go nicely in my new garage :D

i got a new, bigger, gun safe. Didn't actually get it yet, just the receipt. Gotta grab a few buddies and head over to Gander Mt to pick it up. Daughter got me a 1/4 socket set with money she saved herself, not to shabby for a 8 year old. I almost shed a tear when I opened it, looked up at her beaming smile. She is my "daddies girl".
