Don't know if you meant that jokingly or not but brother gave everyone a little box that actually has a lump of coal in it. His idea of a gag gift before his wife made him hand out the real presents.

I was vacationing overseas during Christmas :) but before that I bought some commercial-type 4' wide chrome wire shelf units from Costco.

I wanted shelving with wheels so they can be easily moved around.

I did pretty well this year also. Craftsman 19.2 cordless drill/impact driver set, Bostitch finish/brad nailer set, and a Craftsman digital level....wife was extra generous this year because we are finishing the upstairs of our cape and we aren't hiring any outside help.

Between my wife, parents and brother, they did pretty good this year.

Campbell Hausfeld 3-Piece 16-Gauge Framing Nailer Combo Kit

Shopmaster 9'-1/4" Miter Saw Work Stand

Kreg K3 Master System

Amflo Retractable Hose Reel with Hose

Ryobi Belt/Disc Sander

I have been collecting these KNEX kits since they started coming out. Anything to do with an amusement park or roller coaster, I have it. I actually put them together. If I get enough, my garage will have a roller coaster around the inside.

A Limited Slip for my Porsche 901, a Rennshifter, and a 2.3L engine. And floor heating hookup from my father. No tools, but they get me out into the garage in these cold nights.

Who needs tools, looks like you hit the mother-lode with those gifts! You'll love the Rennshift, people seem to like them (I don't have/need one yet).

My better half’s, sister and her bloke gave us a full week of working on the house and studio (garage). We now have cladding to go with the roof, window and door frames that went on in December.

All most forgot they flew in from interstate to do this for us, guess we will be doing the same for them real soon.

Got me a couple of bar stools for the new garage. A Von Dutch and a Rat Fink. Got some new finned valve covers for the hot rod and a bunch of Home Depot gift certs so I can buy more stuff to finish the garage.

I got a garage.

People were smart enough to give me gift cards so I can start equipping it.
