The official 'What did you get for Christmas?' topic 2016

A Off-Topic forum to discuss things that aren't related to the Amusement Park Industry.
Postby Guy_With_A_Stick on December 26th, 2015, 5:04 pm
Title explains it all.

I got $40 in Steam gift cards, a little 3D printed desk model of SkyRush, a bacon-themed calendar, a book on roller coasters from a "professional"(though I doubt it as RCCA and Togo were listed in the top manufacturers), sandals with memory foam, and a bunch of other crap.

So, how about you?

All I got was the 2017 ACE Calendar, a Bobs Burger tea shit and lots of $$$. I really like what coasters were chosen for the calendar this year. The ACE calendar is the only gift I receive yearly now.
