Also recieved some cash so I can order my present for myself. A 13" refurbed Macbook from the Apple Store.

[quote name='DJ K8E']I always end up getting my gifts early, because I don't go see anyone around this time of year, so they always send them to me, and they send them early so they get to me before X-Mas. Plus, even if they do live near me, they just drop them off before they go home for the holidays, which leaves me to open them as soon as I close the door. Anyway...
