I didn't get much, but I did buy a lovely set of new D&D dice that I needed. And although I got it for free, I attained the Pokemon HG/SS bag. I feel like such a cool cat. My friends bought some card game that I can't remember the name of. It was silly and one of those games you'd play with your friends at two in the morning.
So, PAX Easters - what did you get/buy?

I hope you're joking. If not, fluids and bed rest. Hope you get feeling better.

I got various swag and won a very nice Chun-li controller at the Street Fighter 2: Hyper Fighting tournament.
More of a curse than anything though, since I'll have to drop $1500 on my PC to get it ready to use them, but the end result will be worth it
Other than that I got a ton of shirts and a rather nice ceramic Intel mug.
- Through the Intel Prize Patrol thing, I got 2 LED pens, a large "Life's a Glitch" shirt, and a sling bag.
- I bought 3 little Cthulhu plushes (1 for me, 1 for one friend, and 1 for another friend).
- I bought Paul and Storm's newest CD.
- I bought Anamanaguchi's CD and got a few free stickers.
- I bought a panel from Bill Amend.
- I bought a mini-comic and a 3-pack of buttons (for a friend ... the buttons, not the comic) from Loading Ready Run.
- I got an iron-on from the red-suited Doctor Horrible.
- I got a deck of Magic cards (in the swag bag, like everyone else).
- I got a Rockstar sticker.
- I got a Reddit alien thingy made from beads at a little Tweetup I went to.
- And finally ... I got 2 buttons from Scott Kurtz.
Hmmm...I bought 2 PA shirts and a poster. Tons of free shirt swag.
Best item get? 3rd place medal for Mario Kart DS

And of course all the stuff that was in the swag bags. Neat haul, but next year I'm setting way more money aside for souvenirs! I would've added a signed copy of Memories of the Future and a whole lot more to my list if I'd had the money (and the time to wait for Wil Wheaton).

I also purchased a hamburger & fries from the main lobby buffet thing ... I was losing fortitude at that point and was completely revived ... awesome food.
Anyone have spares? My avatar's PAX09 t-shirt is looking soooo last season right now.
Oddly, I ended up with 12d20 and only 1d8

Zombie Dice and Cthullu Dice were on sale (in very limited quantities) at the Complete Stragetis booth on the second floor. They actual release date isn't until later in the year, though, so you'll have to wait if you didn't get one.
