Registry gifts question?

Re: Registry gifts question?

Some people might. I just received a gift off of my registry as a Christmas/engagement gift.

Some people might do it because they know it's things you have chosen and will like!

Re: Registry gifts question?

Yeah, we got a lot of gifts from our registry last Christmas, and I got some stuff for my birthday too. Sometimes I'll buy couples christmas gifts from their registries, but only gifts I might buy anyway, like bar sets, or things like that. I figure, they asked for it, might as well get it for them.

Re: Registry gifts question?

I know my family is getting us a lot from the registry for Christmas

Re: Registry gifts question?

I got a bunch of registry gifts for my b-day and I am sure I will get some for xmas too. FI laughs because he says I am going to get a bunch of plates for xmas and he is going to get fun stuff-

Re: Registry gifts question?

I can't answer because that is the reason I waited until after the holidays to register. (my wedding was October and I registered in March!)

Re: Registry gifts question?

Don't get me wrong...I'd love to get some of these gifts for the holidays! I can always find more stuff to register for!

Re: Registry gifts question?

I wish my family would get me stuff from my registry, but they all refuse to do so for christmas, or any other event for that matter. FH's mom and my dad do not understand the whole registry thing. They think I am rude for even having a registry!

Re: Registry gifts question?

We're getting married next September too - a lot of FH's family loves that we have the registry - its making Christmas shopping soooo easy for them! But my side is like yours Christy - I keep saying I WANT and NEED things from my registry, but they're not getting the concept.

Re: Registry gifts question?

I'm having the opposite problem; I think that I'm getting things from my registry and nothing else for Christmas. I'm happy about it though because those are the things that I really need.

Re: Registry gifts question?

I love the fact that people can buy me things off the registry for christmas!!! Actually, I think I am going set up a registry every year so my bonehead hubby can actually get me something I like. Last year (and please don't laugh) he got me a fishbowl with some gravel and ceramic fish in it and at the opening, it had a candle. He really did think it was the custest thing and couldn't wait for me to open it. Luckily, I took his credit card and bought myself a ton of stuff so I did have a bunch of stuff I liked.

Re: Registry gifts question?

I just received my blender and food processor from FI's parents for Xmas.
