I think my invitations went out last week and nothing has come off my registry yet. That could also be because my sister forgot to put the little registry cards in w/ the invitation.

I went to a bridal shower last Saturday. The day before, like 15 of us girls were scrambling at Macy's buying our gifts from the registry.

Gives you less opportunity to peek.

I'm in the exact same position! I think my shower is TODAY and since yesterday, only ONE MORE thing has come off my registry!!! My Fortunoff's registry has barely been touched and my BB&B is even 1/4 gone.

But I know that people shop last minute and unfortunately, some people forget to take it OFF the registry!

some people give cash so that you can buy what you want and others buy whats on your registry at a different store. i wouldnt worry about it. i had people buy things off my registry that were never removed
