I try to avoid collecting stuff I don't need but my dad has a pretty sizable collection of hacker stuff (he isn't so much now, but was a minor computer geek in the 80's and early 90's which is largely why I'm a computer geek now - I grew up with it), and father's day/christmas presents are a no-brainer for me. I picked up some <a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-4fxMSaziUXY/UAa4hMOeejI/AAAAAAAAFRQ/jUf6TalmGNw/s542/IMG_20120718_092118.jpg" rel="nofollow">Hacker Dojo stickers</a> from the Maker Faire last year. They had a sparse booth but seemed pretty cool, and their place seemed a lot more inviting and genuinely useful than some of the other hacker/maker spaces around. Alas, I don't live in the bay area.
