Of course, Chester is not Bike Schwag, as much as I love him. So a couple of weeks ago, I did buy this on eBay:
2008 Cervelo P3, Profile/Zipp cockpit, D.A. 7900 crank set and brakes, D.A. 7800 derailleurs, those are my Zipp 404 Powertap wheels. About 18lbs as pictured, drops to under 17lbs with the Zipp tubies. Very pleased with the bike.

I like the map(s) on the wall. There are two, right? What's on the second one?
I love maps! I've got a large wall map of the world which I need to find a place for. I've had it up in the last two places I've lived, and it was great for locating countries where world news events were taking place, and for looking where I have cycled and where I would like to cycle.

Primal Wear Jersey, t-shirt and socks (I guess she got "Free Shipping" if the order was big enough), new floor pump, DVDs, Snoopy t-shirt and wool socks.
The best gift of all was from the US Navy, they let my son come home for 14 days.

I would make a map of all the places I cycled but that would only be limited to Southern California so not too much to see.

I used to wear primal wear jersey but after a season, the cuffs would turn rock hard. Every single one of my jersey did this, I wonder if anyone else had the same issue.

Throw the stick!!!!
Welp other than the shuffle I didn't get anything bike related. I did score $400 to order some toys for myself though.

I got nothing. I guess I got my gift a few days ago. I had a washer and dryer for sale on CL. A lady called and asked about it and if I would take payments. Well, the long and the short of it is she has just recently went back to work, single mother of three, one of which has medical issues. So she got the washer and dryer for free, a turkey dinner, and $20.00 gift card. This is an excerpt from an email I got from her the following day. Nothing I could have gotten for Christmas could make me feel this good.
Words can't describe what you did for my family tonight.....
The gift you gave us tonight was amazing. I was able to buy the stuff to cook the christmas dinner in with the gift card you gave me. This year has been life changing for me and my kiddos. My daughter last night was sitting with my son and him being four he now knows what santa is about and he was talking to her about what santa was going to give him. My six year old told him moms broke santa isnt coming. I was chrushed that my six year old daughter had grasped the idea that I had nothing to give them. You have brought santa back my daughters have no idea that they will wake up to presents in the morning. You truly were our angels tonight, I hope you have a amazing christmas

I spent Christmas Eve with my dad, and oldest brother who lives with him. Dad made a big pot of chicken soup, and we brought him a bottle of TJ's Belgian ale. Being able to spend time together, was a nice gift for everyone. We don't exchange gifts anymore, and I'm ok with that.
We'll be getting together again, this time including my other older brother and his family, on the 31st. We give the kids gifts and have fun watching them run around tearing things open. My niece has mercifully grown out of the age where she shrieks at the top of her lungs in a pitch that make dogs hide and glass break.

As for me, i received bottles of multi-vitamins and glucosamines to keep me healthy.
As for stuff i bought for myself, and there are quite a bit (i know, i'm a consumerist pig)
-New white dress shirt to replace the one i ruined when i got ink on the old one
-This scarf from J Press
-A 12" adjustable wrench so i can finally remove casettes
-Conti gatorskin tires, castelli jackets, gore balaclava, etc, but those are all necessities for cycling
