So, I have to update my purchases.

I opted to grab a box of Cygnar Trencher Commandos.

We went last night to get our christmas presents for each other. Justin got a chaos chariot, and I got a unit of eternal guard and a unit of wardancers. My birthday is coming up as well, so the wardancers are my birthday gift. One FLGS in the area was having 15% off of WHFB and 40k stuff, so we figured it was the best time to buy.

Pulled the trigger on Battlefoam too.

Also picked up three seasons of Mad Men(blu-ray) from Amazon for $10 apiece.

What'd you get?

I got Scatman Crothers as a car(Jazz), a certain scuba diving hovercraft who speaks as though blowing bubbles in milk(Sea Spray), and Boo Berry Fallen with Face Removing Action yesterday.

I picked up the last two foam trays I needed for an Xmas gift, the flagships for the Bone Griffons and Shroud Mages fleets, and 2 packages of the Victorian street lamps from Malifaux for the new game board I'm making...

Fleshed out my Legion of Everblight forces to 50+ points with options, and picked up a new Battlefoam bag for it (no more sharing space with my Marines!). The only thing I wasn't able to pick up were the Forsaken and Striders as it seems EVERYONE is out of stock right now (Miniature Market, The War Store, and all 3 FLGS in my area, and I was able to grab a grand total of 1 Forsaken out of the 3 I need). Even Ebay only has a single one from a US seller, and I just don't like paying 50% of the item cost in shipping.

Heh through the magic of Google I found 2 ghosts of Christmas past.

What did you buy in 2007?

I didn't do too bad, most of the useful stuff like the gothic sets and GW stuff is now painted and has been used in games. The elective stuff like Copplestone and Reaper not so much...

ok I picked up 11 boxes of boyz and 6 boxes of lootas and 2 trucks and 2 battlewagons

I ordered a P.A.C.K. 420 for my Ogre Kingdoms army and a Malifaux bag w/ the Leveticus faction box during the Battlefoam 25% off sale.

I also took advantage of Mantic's 10% off discount to pick up one of their Christmas bundles - the Vampire Count army with the new cavalry and skeleton archers. Fortunately, work is picking up the tab on that one.

And while it wasn't Black Friday related, I decided to finally purchase a license for my demo copy of Army Builder. I've expanded into several game systems in the past year, so I figure that the time was right.

I called Battlefoam right at midnight for their Black Friday deal. Got myself one of their limited edition 720's. Now just need to decide what foam to get for my new DE army when I call em back on Monday. Will probably add a few Ravagers to the list as well since they are doing 25% off GW product as well.

Oh and I bought a new monitor for my computer from Office Max.

I really wanted to pull the trigger on a Battlefoam bag, but only their biggest would be a wise choice for me, and the money I limited myself to just couldn't support it without eliminating half of my Dark Eldar army and the corresponding resin bases from Dragonforge.
Those weren't Black Friday buys, though. they were done the week prior.

I picked up a P.A.C.K. 720 from Battle Foam for my Blood Angels, and some extra trays for my daemons. I opted not to get the limited edition version, as I actually prefer the olive color, and I might want to get a P.A.C.K. Plus to add onto it at some point, which are(currently) only available in olive.

I also took advantage of the 33% off discount and ordered a bunch of Trollbloods models from Miniature Market, as well as a copy of Ren Faire for a Xmas present.

Oh yeah, and found out that some of Amazon's Black Friday sales were on things my family actually wanted for Xmas. Score!

Isn't doing all your holiday shopping from the comfort of your own home so much better than dealing with people getting trampled at the mall?

One figure from Hasslefree for a competition, and some bases from Dragon Forge - not too bad, really, especially given the current exchange rate.

Might have to get some more Dragon Forge stuff if the rate stays around where it is.

I did most of my shopping through Sabol's site. The heavily reduced foam prices combined with the November 20% discount was just too great a deal to pass up.

I had hoped to hit the Warstore sale but the buggy site on Thursday combined with mediocre offerings left me underwhelmed.

Once the dust settled my Sabol order consisted of:

1X Armored Company bag (awesome bag, this one will be my second of this type)
5X 1" and 1.5" foam trays
1X Double Wide foam tray
1X Hybrid 2" Tray (I was curious and the reduced price made it a painless experiment)

All that for $132 shipped ain't bad!

Bought a bunch of Blu-rays and got a 2 boxes of wyches, wish I had visited battlefoam and bought a bag, but oh well :/

The Warstore got a lot of my business.

For myself: I picked up an array of The Army Painter primers and their dip, some tac squads, a pair of razorbacks, and pre-ordered the hardback Battle Tech Classic rulebook.

For my friends, I picked up some of The Army Painter primers for their armies (hint, hint), a blood claws box for the space wolf player in our group, and some other modeling supplies.

For my wife, I ordered an iPad and some periferals for it.

So, I blew a chunk of change this year.

Just added another $30 of Star Wars minis, need more! More! More!

I think I have over 400 now...

Thank God the game is dead.

Ditto, finally picked up a Battlefoam 720 in black. Can't stand the olive color fabric used in their product lines. Was grateful they did a limited edition run of black cases.

hmm, I typically dont buy minis on black friday, because they are never on sale anyway. Next weekend I have my heart set on a Baneblade (converting to a fellblade), Land Raider Crusader, Rhino, Vindicator, and Land Speeder Tornado.

This will complete the first wave of my BA army!

I really wanted one of those Black 720 bags for my blood angels, but they sold out! I swear, I have the worst Black Friday luck possible! I've missed my FLG stores annual Black Friday sales twice(!) in 3 years(!) becuase of Deployements and then I get back and they closed the store in my hometown!! I move to Louisville with a brand NEW FLGS with an awesome black friday sale (35% off!!) and then I have to go home for Thanksgiving (where the OTHER store closed!!). Its pathetic....I can't win...

So I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Santa (aka my wife) will come through and get me a Baneblade and a Crystal Case Battlehive II. That would pretty much make up for everything...although I will still need a case for my blood angels!

I bought an Eldar tray set from Battlefoam. That's my next army project . . . maybe.

I went a little crazy and bought 4 tyranid battleforces, 6 carnifexs, trygon and a couple of hive tyrants along with some hobby supplies (green stuff)
