Post early X-mas present

so i went to sears yesterday to look at tools boxes so my wife knew what to buy me for X-mas. While i was there the work benches caught my eye. I asked the salesperson for some info and figured maybe after the holidays i would treat myself. On my way out there was a craftsman workbench that was on display, and it was perfect for my needs. As luck would have it when i asked about the unit they said it was no longer avalible, discontinued item. After examining the display for a few more minutes i decide to ask to buy the display. Well this worked out to my benifit, got the whole unit, including the back piece with the light for under $200. Would have been $400 new. Picked it up today and began setting it up. I love early Xmas gifts! What are you guys getting yourselfs

Its bigger than it looks.

A good workbench is the foundation of the home shop...

You can store tools on pegboard or in cardboard boxes, but you can't clamp something into a vise unless you have a bulletproof platform to mount the vise on...

Congratulations on the good deal.

Nothing on the list, but as I shop for others I sometimes shop for me too.
