Most expensive gift you bought for the holidays?

I just bought my wife components for a brand new gaming computer. Nothing crazy(like mine), but I'm going to get the case painted purple for her. All in all, just under 800 dollars.

What about you, OT?

I bought my dad the complete Star Wars Saga on Blue Ray, ran me about 80$, at the time I did my xmas shopping online I had also purchased the graphic novel Batman: Under the Red Hood for myself for less then 30$ which was what a local store was asking for it

I got myself a Chupa Chups going through the registers once.

I bought a laptop that was $211 and games I spent $185 on so almost $400 all together. but the laptop was most expensive so that.

I bought myself a recorder that was around 200 bucks.MistressMinako

Dare we ask what this recorder will be used for?

I bought 3 games at Gamestop for 40 bucks...

Most expensive so far. I plan to buy my girlfriend a CD, and I have no idea what to get my dad.

Anyone have any good ideas on what to give a dad? Hopefully not too expensive?

Now is it a recorder, the instrument? Or a recorder to record things like audio or visual. I'm also interested haha.

Good point. She can't very well tape her ritual human sacrifices with just a sound recorder!

An iPod touch, it was around $200.

20$ gift card for my brothers :lol:

Skyrim - $98

My parents bought me the Asus Transformer.

Probley will buy a monitor and a new case for myself.

pprobably about 50$ on a gift for my parents, If I had more money I would definitely be buying better gifts

It's the thought that counts.

The way my family usually works is everyone gets an "expensive" present, and a bunch of other things. So that's her expensive present.

I haven't bought any gifts yet. The most expensive gift I've gotten was an alarm clock/iPod deck for his birthday a couple years ago. With warranty, it was ~$100.Suzy_Q_Kazoo

Look at this thing I got my sister. She has trouble waking up, I figured I'd help her out. :D

I bought my Ma a 14k white gold cross pendant with a .1k diamond for about $220 or so. I got a deal on it as it normally sold for $350. I told my Pops that he had to buy something to go with it.

Now, I did buy a camera, lens, bag, flash and 3 filters for about $2000 for myself.

If I were her I wouldn't even want anything else, just thinking about getting 800$ in computer componets is making me drool :lol:

Pfff, can never have too many Christmas presents! She has no idea what she's getting too, which makes it even better.

I've heard about those! Haha, tell me how that works out.Suzy_Q_Kazoo

The first time she gets woken up with it I'll probably find it thrown through my trucks windshield. Ah, should be good times.

My brother could have used that years ago. It is a pretty cool alarm clock.WhiteKnight77

If it works well I may get one for myself, one my current one breaks.

An engagement ring for $8,000. But I usually only spend a few hundred bucks.Mac8457

Hope she's worth it, dude. My wife made me promise not to buy her an expensive ring.

Me too :D But that is what they all say. Believe me, she wants a big diamond on her finger. They all do.Mac8457

Nah, not mine. I gave her a Zales catalogue and asked her which ones she liked and she picked a bunch and told me what she liked about them, then I went to my best-friend's dad and asked him to make one for me using the things she liked. I paid $2,000 but only because he shaved two gs off of it as a wedding present.

Best part was, she thought I was just going to go to Zales and buy one. Fooled her. She almost fell out of her seat when I showed it to her.

Yep, I kinda designed mine too. That means a lot more than just picking one out of a catalog. Congrats man.Mac8457

Sure does. And you too.

$40 Gift Card... no 8k ring for me. I'm a big spender.

My mom bought a cruise for 4 people for Christmas, so about $3000.

A game...for myself. :P
