I went with my brother to the store and gave him the money and since he has bought many previous guns, we got it right there.

$60 on gift cards for my brother and my sisters bf
$33 on Ren and Stimpy DVD set for my friend
$40 on That 70s Show season 1 for the family
$30 on two CDs for my lady friend

Wasnt able to spend much this year with the job change and the fact that i got into a car accident a month ago. I'll use my next check to get more presents next week.
