What Presents Did You Get?

Okay. I admit it. I'm looking for ideas for next year for things, so I'm hoping that if people list what they got, I'll have something I can nab ;) [in true MSE way of course.]

I got:

Chocolates
Money
Gift Vouchers
The Simpsons DVD & Hit And Run game
Watch
Make Up
Dressing Gown
Gardening Things
Stuff to make my new kitchen look posh when I move [hopefully this coming year]
