duolingo's mouse-over definition of "preso" lists "taken" and "grabbed."
Of course, both "I have taken" and "I grabbed" are rejected.

No, "mi sono preso" means "I got", "I bought", whereas "I was given" is translated as "mi รจ stato/a dato/a".

neither was 'grabbed' even though it was in the drop down list of meanings whereas 'got'wasn't.

surely turning it reflexive translates more like "i got/bought myself a new jac..."
