Well, I don't have it installed yet because I need to clear off some space so I can get that 20 gigs free, and I can easily do that, but kinda slacking off on that. Though I'll be sure to do it before Jan 31st do I can get that free media center add on pack.
Games: MGS HD Collection, R&C Collection, Ico+SotC collection, Atelier Totori, and Fortune Street.
Most of those PS3 games are horrid-quality used from Gamestop so I plan to return them and pay like $1 more each for a new copy.
candy
$50 visa gift card
$50 check
Some clothes, most of which I honestly don't want and probably will never wear. Though clothes are the type of item I most want right now (I'll spend most of that gift currency on clothes), it's not like my family would get me anything compatible with my weird desires (especially considering they're not yet very noticeable)
some cologne and whatnot which I am also uninterested in
I'm an awful person to pick presents for goowan
well I got some wool socks from Maddy and a few vinyls.

Star Gazing book
Crock-pot
Cook Book
Clothes (a few shirts and jeans)

with the money/gift card I bought:
BioShock (was gamestop ewsed but I didn't even notice until I was almost home so I guess the condition's good enough to keep, should have been cheaper though)
nice shirt
sweatpants
hat
i got 500$ from my parents and i was only to get two things out of it (only two shirts lol)
and some plushies
and some other money but i'm saving that
no fur scarf is worth 800$ no matter how much i want :(
oh and Galapagos the novel and some lsd blots and hash

but then how can people inaccurately judge you without even knowing who you are???????
Depending on the type of shirt, I might pay a bit more than snowy's mentioned price range. I'm not too familiar with clothes for formal or cold occasions, but even with those I'd imagine I definitely wouldn't pay anywhere close to $100 for a single shirt/vest/jacket/etc of any kind. Outside of dresses and other full-body outfits, I don't remember seeing any kind of single article of clothing in triple digit price range that I might consider to be worth that much.

In my particular case, I doubt the price of my clothes would have much of any effect on people's first impressions of me giggle;
Mostly because I have more noticeable other reasons for negative impressions
I think I'd pay around $100 for a nice jacket, but that's really it.
>100$ for a nice jacket
