Besides the Wii and Best Buy gift card from work, I got a nice jacket from the exec producers. It came in handy when I flew back to Iowa.
From my Roommate: Alias Season 5 DVD, 24 Season 5 DVD, Family Guy Volume 4 DVD, and Zelda for Wii. She had originally got me Smallville Season 5 instead of Family Guy, but when she got it home she looked and saw it already perched on my DVD shelf, having recieved it gratis from Tollin/Robbins Productions. They produce both Smallville and One Tree Hill. So i went back and got Family Guy instead.
From my family: My sis got me Marvel Alliance for the Wii. My other sis got me a Customizable Marvel Monopoly game where you decide who's on Boardwalk and the other properties. Which is a cool idea, but i hate Monopoly having not finished a game of it in twenty years, so I'm going to exchange it. A shirt from my parents and the usualHallmark Star Wars ornaments that have become a tradition. I'm not that into Star Wars anymore, but i don't have the heart to tell my mom because it's an easy gift for her to me, and I have all the others, soo...My other, other sister, the toy buyer, got free swag from her Hasbro rep and I got the new 20thA Prime DVD Edition. That's the Prime, not the DVD. i don't know if it qualifies as a Christmas gift, but it's pretty fuckin' cool. I have a cool sister, with a fuckin' cool job!
From my kids: Hugs and kisses for a whole week. That's what this whole holiday has been about for me. I got to spend time with them. I've missed them so much for the past six months, so all that other stuff i can take or leave. They also gave me a $30 Best Buy gift card which was icing on the cake.

Re: What'd ya get?
I think this is the smallest haul I've ever had.
I got two Marvel-centric t-shirts. One was a vintage looking Marvel Team-up on a blue field and the other was a recreation of the cover Avengers Initiative #1 with Iron Man flanked by about 1000 heroes.
I got Hasbro Family Gamenight for the X-box.
And finally, I got the DC Chronicle book. Like the Marvel version I got a couple years ago, its a year by year recap of DC since the 30s. Very cool. And that was it.
But for Boxing day, I went out for deals today and got Lost season 6, Psyche season 4, a clearanced Lego Airport, and a $25 gift card to BN. Which I will most likely use on that GIJoe Guide I've been eyeing.

Re: What'd ya get?
It's late, I just drove two hours (well, a shitload more, given that we stopped and hit a lot of stores to look for deals, especially on ornaments to replace all the broken ones), so this list will be partial. So I'll tell you what comes to mind immediately and fill in later....
Books:
The Autobiography of Mark Twain, Volume 1 (YESS!!!!)
Earth: The Book
Boardwalk Empire
Wii games:
Lego Indiana Jones 2
Wii Party
Clothes:
an awesome shirt
Corona cap/flip-flop combo (my wife told me she knew I'd prefer the Guinness one, but it looked ugly, and this one looked cool)
underwear (and you know you're old when you actually appreciate that gift)
Miscellaneous:
Harry Potter light-up wand
shower head
Amazon gift card
Kindle (shared with the Mrs--thank God, I was worried we were getting two, but now it might actually get some use)
a shit-ton of diapers (honest to God, probably the best of the bunch, given how much they cost and that Anarky III goes through sixty or so an hour)
hot sauce
barbecue sauce
