Get money for christmas? What will you buy?

Done well this year £195 in total, more than I've ever gotten, my mum, 2 grandparents and sister all gave me money.

Likely it'll mostly go on beer though, I don't really want a lot, a few CD's which I want to buy online because theres no decent second hand shop here.
Aside from that, rather have a nice time with my friends who I'm going to be away from for a solid 3 months starting january.

£100 crew voucher will be spent, unsurprisingly, at crew. £100 in cash is likely to clear my overdraft :/ might get a merkur razor.

Really was hoping to win a bit on a scratch card and get an i5, 27inch monitor combo. Alas.

Got £250 from my dad with instructions to buy computer parts a guitar or fencing gear. All my money goes on bills or learning to drive atm so its nice having money Im not allowed to be sensible with.
Would like the white corsair case (the curvy one. 600d?i forget). A new sword would be nice but I'll probably get a new mask and gloves instead. Wouldn't mind a Leon Paul coaching jacket though.

I'm going to buy a 1st class stamp with my Christmas money.

I'll be using mine to buy a new guitar next week

Cannot decide what to save up for between a bike and PC.... so nothing for now. I'm set on a white 600T, so I might get one in the sales whilst they're still kicking about... Christmas money would almost cover it!

Got a nice chunk of cash to put towards some new guitar pickups

Put mine towards a pair of Aviano 1XR's that ive just picked up from RicherSounds.

Depends what you use the PC for and if you'd see any benefit really. Personally I'd put it towards a new bike.

I got £150 - it will be going into the bank as I am struggling on what I earn and until I can get another job (or a second job) every penny helps and all that.

Mucky_Pup · 26 Dec 2011 at 17:08

I've got £200, I'm gonna buy some credit off of Mr Barclaycard

I have £700 saved for a computer, and I got £100 for xmas. So that's £800. one more wage and I'll be buying a system. The extra 100 is basically going towards a 64GB solid state drive.

The__Malteser · 26 Dec 2011 at 17:20

€150 so far

A few will go for a Q6600 and the rest I will probably save. Want to buy SOOOO many stuff, but I like the numbers of my bank account going up

Getting a leather corner sofa in the 'sales' with my christmas cash, just need to decide which one to buy as i'm not willing to stump up enough cash for the one i actually want.

Got about 250 quid to go into the travelling fund, so I can undo all the douchebaggery radox committed

Got £250 going to save it for spending money when I go Amsterdam with the GF.

Clothes mostly, being able to wear casual clothes to work means you need a hell of a lot more

Just ordered a pair of grey / blue Adidas Kopenhagen's to go along with my other 2 pairs of trainers I ordered last night! That'll do me for a while I think!

My parents gave me £1k.

I'm thoroughly overjoyed.

Wow, you're very lucky. Savings, or are you gonna treat yourself to something?
