    So according to a few threads both in AH and TLL, people seem to feel generous towards themselves at Christmas, buying themselves little (or big) gifts.

    Myself included, I have recently ordered a copy of Professor Layton for my DS, not trusting (and not wanting to put pressure on) my mother to get it for me. Also a few small bits and bobs clothes wise for those festive nights out.

    So have you treated yourself to anything nice this year?

    Nothing wrong with buying yourself some clothes to do you over the Christmas but i'd rather wait till the Jan sales to buy everything else

    Thinking of treating myself to a 42" Full HD LED TV with wifi and web. For some reason my 37" HD ready doesn't seem good enough anymore.

    I'm officially debt free for the first time in about 5 years this christmas so I'm going to buy a treat or two for myself.

    Maybe an extra Pot Noodle for Christmas dinner and plenty of wine, women and song

    This year I'm buying myself (as a surprise :D): 4 PS3 games, Band of brothers on blu-ray, A few dvds, New runners, Some clothes, And maybe a partridge in a pear tree. I'm going to wrap it all, then keep till Christmas day. Then I'm going to get up Christmas morning like a hungover child and make a pig of myself. I won't be able to afford anything for the next 6 months, but it will be worth it. Ahh I love Christmas.

    Given that it's not bike season and that bikes aren't selling well at the moment you should be able to get a cracking machine. The best time to buy is when everyone else is selling :D.
