Home owner + fridge dying on Christmas day = new fridge. Only catch, it wont be delivered until NEXT Saturday. So for now, my milk and food are sitting outside in a cooler with ice. :lol:

Follow up on Fridge situation. I decided to get this from another appliance store and they delivered it yesterday. Cancelled my order from BB.
 
These are Christmas gifts, not purchases for myself, but:

Air Fryer

Atari Flashback for my daughter and I to play together.

A good stack of movies.

And my favorite: My wife had my pacemaker/ICD framed in a shadow box. This thing saved my life at least three times.

And if anyone claims I'm heartless I now have proof to the contrary.
 

I recently bought a pair of Cat boots as well (different style though) and have been rather pleased with how they feel after the break-in period. It's certainly one of the few cases where a licensed product is actually pretty decent quality wise.

I completely agreed. These are the most comfortable boots I've owned in a while. It's the first time I own a CAT pair and I already know I'll buy again. I went to buy a pair of Merrells but they didn't have my "merrell" size (44) so I brought these in my "CAT" size (42). :)

Edit: I'll try to buy the Merrell pair once I get to Hamburg. I've searched my size in Portugal this week in 4 different stores. They're so cool.

Just purchased a new watch. Casio makes great watches, especially when considering the price/performance ratio.

$20.05 got me a Super Illuminator. It is no G-Shock, and I'm fine with that. The G-shock seems overboard for daily use. Especially considering the price. I would take the G-shock out for extreme conditions, especially heavy on-foot traveling and rugged jobs, but I'm not in those situations that often. I love the rugged, noir-ish looks of this one. It isn't too much to look at. Just simplicity.

The only G-shock I would consider is the GD100-1B. Analog G-shocks look like a mess.

Though I haven't purchased it, I am considering it. I've fallen in love with this French gal's work.

I love her voice, especially when she attempts to speak English in her songs.

Oh yeah, I forgot about this.

Timbuk2 Showdown bag. It's in the mail currently, so I haven't got my hands on it. It has great reviews on Amazon, and I've seen it in person at the shop.

Got a discount on it.

I remember playing the 24 game. Wasn't anything earth shattering, but it was a decent amount of fun and it was clear that they put a lot of time into it.

Second time is the charm?

Which one is that? I've been looking at Sony tablets for my mom.
 
Z2 Tablet. The one I should have bought last year. I absolutely loved my Tablet Z, and I've loved my Galaxy Tab S... somewhat less than that. I tried buying one a few months ago, and it was better in pretty much every way than the Sammy... Except it was damaged in shipping.
