ok - heres a vent at 11:52pm but i am dumbfounded by the lack of commonsense

My BBB registry is 31 pages long (when printed) - so theres NOT a lack of things to buy me - and a HUGE price range - so why are people buying me things NOT on my registry and then scanning it? It pops up requested 0 - bought 1.?????????

I mean really....seriously.....i dont get it

I read on a prior post that it scans whatever the person is buying. Was there anything bought from the registry in addition to that item?

assuming other things are being purchased from your registry, they might be buying things for themselves too. it will all scan on (and you can take it off yourself).

we bought 2 things from our registry for ourselves + some other stuff and it all scanned on. we changed the amount to '1 requested 1 received' instead of '0 requested 1 received' so not to encourage people to buy non-registry stuff.

there was a post a while ago about someone buying a candy bar... i'm pretty sure they were buying registry gifts and got hungry, not that they were giving the candy bar too!

I went shopping off a BBB registry today and even though everything was for the bride I let them know what I didnt want to be seen on the registry. I thought I would have to pay separately, but the cashier just pressed a button and it never showed up as fulfilled or even bought. It was mostly wishing well stuff or surprise gifts for the basket I am making.

we had 2 groups of things disappear off of my registry recently (well, a pitcher from C&B and then a few days later some plates/bowls/china protectors from BBB) but we've received them both. belated engagement gifts.

i freaked out because we were adding new things to our registries and didnt expect anything to be moving around for a while. some things we werent sure of yet!
