From dad: $500 to buy my own gifts a few weeks ago. So I bought a 17" Dell Ultrasharp LCD (I LOVE this thing), a new shelf since I no longer can use one atop my monitor, and a shirt from kohls. I have $300 left to spare from that.
From brother: $50 to Kohls
From mom: A purse with a "secrity feature" (it gets caught on something on the inside to it tags a hard tug to get open...it is supposedly made that way on purpose) and $50 to kohls
From Aunt (mom's sis): $150 in $20s and $10s rolled up and tied with a ribbon, mixed in with a bunch of candy in a nice little box.
From grandma: $50 cash
THis morning I had to drop mom back off at the airport at 6am, but didn't have to be at my first job til 9, so I went to Kohls for their day after xmas sale and spent $83 of my gift certificates. I have $16 left on the one card, plus another $50 GC I got for my birthday that I never used.
With the other $500 in cash (the $300 left over from dad's money plus the $200 from aunt and grandma) I'm debating whether to buy a new digicam or an all in one printer.
