My group of long time friends and I gather occasionally for what we call Mancation.  It is a weekend where the guys get together to play games, drink, smoke, talk shit, and eat.  Naturally, this includes role-playing sessions as well.

Anyway, as a gift I have some special dice created to commemorate this year's Mancation event.  I purchased the dice from http://www.customdice.com/ and had a great experience so I thought I share it.

There were seven of us there this year so I gave everyone a set of six of the dice.  



It was $1.25 USD for each die and shipping for all 42 dice was $8 USD.  I conducted the whole transaction via email and it went smoothly and effortlessly.  Also, the dice were completed and shipped within a few days.

I kind of waffled the number of dice to give each person.  Just two dice is lame since you can't make up a character in one roll.  Then I thought of three dice each, but most dice rolling for characters lately usually is 4d6-L so I discarded that number as well.  I thought four dice would be a good number, but then I remembered that most d6 packs are usually in sets of six or twelve dice so I went with six dice for each person.
