I got the Nimbus ornament. :)
At least I got that much....smiles.
I can get myself the rest, perhaps at better prices than they were offering at the escalated prices right before Christmas! :)

I'm sorry to hear about your serious gift misfortunes Ebony and Jeralyn....
I, on the other hand, didn't get anything that wasn't Harry Potter...well, I
did get one thing for my husband that I shared that wasn't HP, but I'm not
telling you guys about it!
Let's see I got:
GoF and PoA on tape (my first opportunity to hear the books on tape)
HP Trivia Game
Mystery at Hogwarts Game
Set of 3 Journals (in which my first draft of ASA will now be written rather
than the skanky spiral notebooks I've been using)
HP Stationary set
The puzzle with Harry and Hagrid going to Harry's Gringotts Vault.
Then I got my 7yo
A Gringotts Bank (gotta try to get him to save)
A Hogwarts Journal that guides you to recording various memories
So it was a very Harry Christmas for me, and given I had gotten myself
almost no HP merchandise before this I feel like I'm catching up.
YAY! BTW I enjoyed the Mystery at Hogwarts game. Brian and I played it
this morning...Harry administered a sleeping potion in the Herbology
classroom!
