Best gifts from your registry

[Yari]

I just registered online at Pottery Barn. It was so much fun!

you know what is a reallyyy great gift and so useful. getting a killer set of knives (okay no pun intended there) make sure you get a great knife block set and you will get about a trillion years of use out of those

 

hope you got those on there.

We registered last week. We registered at Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, and Khol’s. It was a long process and we were very tired (and hungry) at the end... so we started getting silly. I have to laugh because at Target my fiancé registered for twenty Big Reese Peanut Butter Cups. I just know we will get them all. Also, we registered for a Wii… I would absolutely love to get the Wii. It was hard registering we have most the stuff that would typically be on the list. We often joke that we are registered at Bank One, National City, First Merit, etc…

i forgot about this thread, but we registed on feb 18th, and it was exhausting but fun, and we have already added some things to our registries online. we ended up doing macys, crate & barrel and bed bath & beyond, and then just signed up for a pottery barn one this week to get it ready to go after some of the gifts get depleted from my two showers. thanks to everybody for your suggestions, i went in with a list of recommendations which made it a lot easier! my FI showed our registry to his mom the other day, and she is one of the classiest people i know with amazing taste, and she called me to tell me that she loved all the things we picked i had to laugh though, because some of the items we picked, we picked because they were similar to what his mom already has and we admire her taste so much!

jamy, thanks for the advice about the blender, we played with one in the store and i am so excited to get it because like you, we have always had the $20 janky plastic models. J was actually saying he was sad to throw away the janky one though because he's had it since college. ew. its going out in the trash the moment someone buys me that cuisinart blender! we registered for the exact one you have. cant wait to use it!

[jajajaja]

ugh. Still need to register......

 

hehe. I don't really care though. I don't really want any presents but everyone keeps telling me to register. Oh well....maybe sometime in the next 27 days. I'm the worst bride EVER!

We registered at 3 places. Pottery Barn, ZGallerie and William Sonoma. We've gotten pretty lucky and have gotten almost all we wanted. At Pottery Barn we registered for a dip bowl a large salad bowl and 12 of the bowls that match that and we've almost gotten everything. We mostly registered for entertainment stuff.

I know. Maybe this weekend. FI is super pumped to go shopping for a new entertainment center for our new plasma tv. Maybe we will just squish registering in too. He won't be that much of a pain. At least he likes to shop- for mostly manly things. haha I'll let him put some super expensive guy stuff on there to keep him entertained.
