Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

That you didn't get at your shower?

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

I told my family to keep referring to the registry for Birthday or X-mas presents. My B-day just passed and my SIL bought us a place setting of our China. I'll probably put the word out again at X-mas this year.

My DH and I went to Williams-Sonoma after the HM because we had a few gift certificates and we bought stuff off the registry with them.

I don't know if we'll ever manage to get EVERYTHING though. Would be nice!

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

I'm still working on finishing off my china... everything else was bought.

My mom buys me a piece of china for every occasion. I wish my MIL would too.
Greedy, greedy ME!

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

We have all our China and Crystal. I am still hoping people will buy us our silverware..... WE only got one place setting, LOL!!

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

we pretty much got everything. I think there was one place setting left and my mom it for us last christmas.

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

Mine was almost finished - all that was left was a set of 4 dinner knives (which my mom gave me money to buy) and my saute pan (it was like $200 so no wonder no one bought it). I did add a few things recently to my Crate and Barrel registry after I moved into my new home....because people keep asking what they can buy us .. I figured I would add a few things in case they looked there...if not I have a bunch of C&B gift certificates - so I will buy them myself...it gelps me remember what I wanted and/or need.

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

we received all of our china, with the exception of 1 serving bowl which we need to buy. I also need to purchase most of our formal glasses, which I'm hoping to get this year for Christmas

I'll probably buy the remainder afterwards but overall we did really well

Unfortunately there was tons of stuff that we didnt get, we already spent about 750$ at Fortunoff and 300$ at BBB to buy the things we didnt get, of course there is more, but a little at a time right!

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

Roger said whatever I really wanted off of the registry that no one purchased I could purchase He told me to quit now, b/c we have no space to keep it

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

Jenn, we are. I recieved a couple of gift certs so Ill use them.

I need a **** house

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

We were going to, but we're going to wait until we have the house to buy more things. We don't even have room in our apartment now from the showers I had, I can't imagine adding anything else in here.

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

I still have things on my registry. I plan to get them at some point. I need more space for everything. So until then no more shopping.

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

I bought a few things off the registry, mostly bedding. I actually have a lof ot things left. No one ever really told anyone where I was registered. A lot of people found the Macy's registry but I think I only got 4 gifts from Fortunoff. I figure I'll get a lot of it myself and from my mom and MIL.

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

I got everything off my BBB, and mostly everything from my Fortunoff one, except for 1 platter from my place settings and some small utensils and my coffee maker, I stopped drinking coffee anyway, but I want to purchase it for guests. I also didn't get the window treatments that match my bedding, but maybe its better because when I move, I don't know how many I would need.

I also have a few Fortunoff gift certs so I can go buy the stuff but I too have no room where I presently am to put it. Most of the stuff from my shower is stored in my MIL's attic for now

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

the only extra thing that was bought was the remainder of my china

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

I still have quite a bit left on my Macys regstry. Hopefully when my b-day and Christmas come around the list will dwindle!

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

yes, us!! Well, we didnt get all our dishes so I went out and finished getting the set! I actually went out to the Pfaltzgraph outlet and saved a bundle!!

Re: Has anyone bought the remainder, or some of the stuff off your registry?

We didn't really get close to everything!! We got all of out china (everyday stuff - we didn't register for fine china). but we didn't get most of our cookware or our silverware - we're actully going to go hopefully this week to buy the rest of the flat ware.
FYI - the Lenox outlet in Riverhead Tanger outlet has a sale on a lot of the silverware, so if anyone if looking to buy some... I think they told us it ends in October.
