What did you BUY today?

Christmas presents, Chirstmas presents, Christmas presents...

Got a couple things for myself too though. HMV were handing out the £5 off when you spend £50 again so they were practically forcing me to buy stuff. So picked up Big Bang Theory 1-5 (£30, the other HMV had actually labelled over this sale price and put it back up to £55), Killer Joe (£12) and Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 1...Not for me, of course...No, seriously that's a Christmas present for my wee Sister.

I was going to get Big Bang and Killer Joe on Boxing Day anyway so thought might as well just noow while I get an extra £5 off.
 
For Xmas gifts, I got:
Dishonoured: Special Edition (Xbox 360)
An Empress and the Warriors (DVD)
Pastels set and a little ceramic elephant
Science Museum Floating Globe
Discworld 2013 Calendar

And for myself:
Darksiders 2 (Amazon Black Friday sale - Xbox 360)
Alchemy Gothic 2013 "Rune Fairie" Calendar
 
Tekken Tag Tournament 2: Wii U Edition (pre-order)

I originally had this on pre-order at GAME, using just under £9 worth of reward points to bring the total price down to £31.01. However, Amazon have since lowered their price to £29.99 (which including shipping, comes to just over £32). So I cancelled my GAME order, deciding that I could use those points for more money off something else down the line (possibly a £15 Nintendo eShop card, as GAME can't overcharge for that?) and made a new pre-order with Amazon.

I'm also considering "SEGA & All Stars Racing Transformed" for the Wii U. Can anyone recommend it, or otherwise?
 
A friend gave me a £10 Waterstones gift card, so I bought "Hayate the Combat Butler" volume 1. So I bought him a £15 Nintendo eShop card to thank him.

Also, I bought Madoka Magica on DVD for a friend.
 
Boxing Day sale today which always means spedning lots o'money for me. Not as much this year though, I'm not even doing an Anime splurge :( .

Anyway, I bought Naruto Complete Shippuden S2 and Bleach S8 online (not in any sale just been meaning to get them for a while), in HMV I strategically used my Gift Cards/Credit and their "Buy a box set get another half price" to get Crub Your Enthusiasm S8, American Horror Story, Eastbound & Down S1/2, Sherlock S1/2, Community S1/2 and Bored to Death S1/2 for just £19.50. There was a LOT of other stuff I was wanting but they didn't have in stock so I'm just going to get it cheapest place online (Breaking Bad, Modern Family, Once Upon A Time and maybe more).

I've decided as well to get back into comics and think I'm going to do a subscription to some so went into Forbidden Planet and bought a load of the latest single issues to see what I like and what I will subscribe to, I got: Aquaman, Avengers, Justice League, Superman, Amazing Spiderman (Last one before Superior Spiderman starts), Batgirl, Batwoman, All New X-men, Hawkeye, Green Lantern, Green Arrow, Wonder Woman, Daredevil, Nightwing and Scarlet Spider. Was going to pick up were I left off with Fables and Jack of Fables, but it'll be much cheaper buying those trades online.
 
Hunger Games trilogy for £7.99 from The Works, excellent price I felt. They also have A Song of Fire & Ice collection for £30...I just bought the first book last week. If I like it after I've read it though, which I probably will since I loved the first season of the TV series, then I'll just buy that and post my spare copy of A Game of Thrones down to my big Sis, who's wanting to know if it's good.
 
I got you beat, 20thCenturyBoy :p I just bought the Hunger Games trilogy for £6 from Fopp. I also bought some DVDs; Dodgeball, Team America World Police, The Angels' Share, The Happiness of the Katakuris, Iron Man and the complete series of Tokko.
 
I thought my phone died last night - ran out of charge and two USB chargers and two USB-Mains adaptors didn't work. So I bought a new phone.

Tried out the new charger in my phone as a curiosity and it fecking works.

Wasted £65...
 
Upgraded my bank account to a gold card and tempted to go platinum too but i like the idea of owning a gold card :p
