I got a selection of odd stuff. However, I did at least get some cash to go with it.

Got a full set of Game of Thrones books in HB (can't read that paperback print anymore) some clothes. I had bought my Dad an Ipad Air 1 , 32 GB Wifi, but found out at the last minute that he already had one and had put it in a drawer...same one as I got for my wife...it's kinda cool and I'll keep it :) . Been wanting a tablet to play with and the screen on this is awesome and I can resize the fonts on the Kindle app so that I can actually read stuff.

I couldn't resist getting myself the ASUS Radeon R9 290X DirectCU II OC for $300.

Intel Core i5-4670
ASRock H97M-ITX/ac Mini ITX Board
EVGA GeForce GTX 750ti 2GB SuperClocked Graphics Card (Present to myself)
Cooler Master Stacker 915F MiniITX Case
256GB PNY Optima SSD

Put myself together a little power-efficient gaming machine because running my big AMD FX 8150 and GeForce GTX580 all the time was costing an arm and a leg on my power bill just to watch Youtube clips 90% of the time. And it plays 90% of what I play at decent graphics settings at under 150 watts.

I also got some racheting box-end wrenches, some awesome work shirts, and cash. And I got to spend time with my family. What more could I ask for?
