I second your hate!! That store is terrible!

I agree... I've heard the horro stories.. that's why I registered elsewhere. At least you finally got your pots and pans though

Re: I HATE MACY'S

I feel lucky......I went there today to Macys in Manhassat- p/u my friends registry and a sales rep came over to me within 25 seconds and helped me find stuff on the registry.
She sent me to get my gifts wrapped @ thier gift wrap for free( off bridal registry) and brought me info while I was I gift wrap for htier Briadal club( for registering).
I hate Macys on 34th st too crazy
I hate Macys in Roosevelt Field - too crowded
I hate Macys In Queens Center- just plain crazy
BUt Macys in Manhassat is really not bad @ all.

Re: I HATE MACY'S

Don't worry- I think there not all bad- I am telling you the one in Manhassat is really good.
We went today in the middle of the day- we did ot wait on a line for more then 5 mins.
Sales reps very helful.
When I used the Bridal Salon- very helpful.
They have thier act together @ that one.
THere is hope!

Re: I HATE MACY'S

I used to be a buyer for MACY'S many years ago. I only go back in an emergency (like to return something that someone gave me)
I did try to get something there for a friend's registry but Herald Square didn't carry one item from her registry in stock. I know from experience that Herald Square usually carries everything so i can imagine how hard it would be for those in the 'burbs to get weddign gifts.
People have to have time to order the gifts (and be prepared to pay a lot for shipping) This is OK for wedding gifts but a headache for shower presents. I know most people don't shop a month in advance for shower gifts so I don't know how they get the gifts from a MACY'S registry.
From now on when i see someone is registered only at MACY'S - i buy something at another store. I don't want to give them my business and I can't deal with the headache
