Re: Registering dilemma
they should be able to just go to the fortunoff website, however, some people like to actually walk into a store to shop ... is ther a lot of out of towners that cannot access a fortunoff store.
If yes, consider registering at Bloomingdsales or Macys instead.
If not, then how about a store like Bed Bath and Beyond or Target with a few items so that she can buy from there?

Re: Registering dilemma
Maybe pick another place because some people are 'computer' challenged. Like my FMIL. She would have no clue how to do it. Just a thought.

All of FI relatives are from Wisconsin & we're registering at Fortunoff & Crate & Barrel. They said they were fine with using the web page!

I chose BB&B and Target because they are readily available in most towns, without having to go to the internet. A lot of my family is still not web savvy so I wanted to make it easier for them to just walk into the store.

Re: Registering dilemma
I did Fortunof & Bed Bath & Beyond.
I though my MOH is CA, would prefer BB & B , but she just used the Fortunoff website & my computer-less grandma, who I thought would like to go to an actual store ( and would have been able to get to either), just had my aunt order online from BB & B. I think she just wanted to get us the China we wanted, regardless of what it looked like.
So, you can't really figure what people are going to do, I say register at Fortunoff, and then see what else you need. I thoguht I'd jsut register at BBB, but there were things they didn't have there, it was good to have 2 stores.
ETA- my mom brought a place setting to show her after I open it since it is just stored at her house anyway.
