I got and gave Serenity. Also, some smarty pants books and...doll clothes. Yep. I loves em. I am 26 and last year my favorite cousin got me an American Girl's doll I desperately wanted as a child and never got, and now everyone gets me her acessories. That's what Christmas gifts should be, useless expensive trinkets for your inner child. Though I wouldn't mind the Buffy Chosen Collection. Sigh.

I gave a copy of the Firefly series on DVD to my sister...stuffed inside of a Jayne hat I knit myself :)
Biggest Firefly gift....my non-sci-fi friend bought Serenity for her husband...because SHE wanted to see it...LOLOL

Gifts tend to suck in my family. None of us actually knows each other, so all our gifts tend to be gift certificates (often to stores that we don't go to), money, socks, and practical stuff (bottles of shampoo, travel packages of kleenex, a new toothbrush, a couple of pens, etc).
'Course, might also have to do with the fact that my family's centred around Cornwall, with its lack of. . . well, anything.
The best gifts I got were a couple of gift cards from Blockbuster (which we have in town) and Coles/Indigo/Chapters (which we don't [*]), a keychain that actually works (my old one was starting to come unspooled; keys would slip between the coils and get stuck in odd directions).
(*) Well, we have a Coles, but they don't actually make the effort to carry anything. Crappy service too (friend who once worked there said their policy is to not help the customers).
I seem to be the only one in the family who actually puts thought into stuff (don't just mean gifts, but even just general "reading instructions" type stuff [I'm allergic to nuts. I've had my mom give me boxes of candy that say "NUTS" on the front in big block letters that she just didn't notice]).
Gifts I gave:
Serenity DVD to my (semi-Browncoat) cousin and her (SF-loving) family.
A model car to the other cousin, who sold me my new car.
Serenity DVD to a friend in Ottawa (haven't actually given it yet, since we won't see each other 'til January --plus it's fullscreen, and I want to see if I can find a widescreen instead).
A book on the Canadian military to a co-worker who's interested in Canadian politics/history.

Ohh!
Here's wishing to health to those that came down with the various ailments of the season!
And here's to those who did good deads this Christmas, even if they weren't appreciated!
My family is afraid to get me anything Highlander, LOTR or Firefly, because they don't know what I've already got, so that's no surprise. Although my aunt sent me the Two Towers Aragorn action figure! YAY!
Shallow of me, but the best I gift I recieved was actually money. My mom gave me the money to pay for my trip to Scotland in March! I'm...flabbergasted. Overwhelmed. She said I deserved to have a vacation without stressing over it.
So yah, Merry Christmas to all!

I got Serenity! I've already seen the special features and the movie with Joss' commentary.
I got all 3 of the comic books too!
I got books, DVD box sets (not Firefly, already have that), some spending money, stuff for my trip to Italy, and a $25 gift card to Dunn Bros. Coffee (there's one 2 blocks from my High School, so I walk there sometimes).

Funny you should ask, Chrisisall, because I actually got a shiny Buddha 
, and a "Chinese Wishing Well" ( you write what you want on a tiny piece of paper, and insert it into the well, it's a kinda prayer) and my copy of the BDM ( my most favorite gift!) and everyone ( especially my Mom) are healthy and we were blessed with lots of good food and a wonderful time. Oh and I also got a Chinese necklace with the sign for the year of my birth on it ( the adventurous rooster! lol)
