Put 10% in savings, give 10% to a charity or to your church and then invest some, put some on bills and save a little to treat yourself to a favorite indulgence. Try not to put all your eggs in just one basket. :-)

Pay your bills to current and pay off some credit card debt. I know its possible that you have a nice income that covers your monthly credit card payments, but why keep paying interest when you can pay off the debt? Go for the highest balance/interest cards and work from there til you are out of money. Then, don't run up the balance again and pocket what you would have had to pay out to the card companies each month. Better credit rating, less monthly expense and best of all.....you can use the extra monthly cash to buy things you want outright, never paying interest on them :)

Man you are lucky!! If I was fortunate enough to receive a bonus like that I would pay off my credit card and invest the rest.
Merry Christmas and enjoy your bonus I am sure you worked hard and deserveit

Put it in a guaranteed account that gives you the best possible interest and keep adding to it. You don't need to buy any more things.

invest it.... if you dont absolutley NEED anything... no reason to blow it on something stupid... you'll find something worth buying later on.
