Registry ? How many places did you choose and

where? I went to Crate and Barrel today and registered for about 60 items and I felt like I was getting dizzy. I didn't realize this would be such a project.

One of my girlfriends recommended William Sonoma for pots. Any thoughts??? Are people still having probs with Fortunoff or since L&T took them over are they having fewer probs?

My sisters are also getting my shower invite printed up and want to know definitely which stores. I kinda wanted to go to a few in person but hopefully you girls can help b/c my sis is waiting on me.

TIA for any tips you have..........

I registered at Macys, Crate and Barrell and BBB. I loved all of them.

We registered at BBB and Fortunoff. Registering does take a while. FH and I went to each store two or three times to complete our registry.

I did BBB and Macys but canceled Macys bc BBB had all the same stuff but they have the 20% coupon. I think Im gonna go register at Fortunoff for some different things

thank you ladies for all the suggestions. I was thinking there may be overlap between a few of them so that is a HUGE help!!! Thanks so much!

I love Macy's and BBB. At macy's you get certain gifts just for registering for certain items...for example, I registered for Cuisinart stuff and I'm getting a free Cd of recipes; All-Clad is sending me a set of odd-sized stainless measuring cups...you also get 10% off all items on your registry for a year after your wedding and Macy's rewards points.

I registered at JC Penny and BB&B. JC Penny has GREAT deals on bedding and there are always sales. Plus there are always coupons for BB&B.

We did BBB and WIlliams Sonoma. We registered for pots, knives and small appliances at WS.

BBB was great for bedding and vacuums and dishes.

We went to both stores once and did the rest on line.

Re: Registry ? How many places did you choose and

I registered only at BBB. I'm not sure how many items I registered for but it was probably 3 pages worth of stuff. I would register for pots and pans somewhere else, your friends and family will be paying top dollar for those items at W&S and it's the same things they can get at BBB or a different store for much cheaper

I did place setting for 10, and registered at Macys, Fortunoff (mainly for china, not much else), Pottery Barn (mostly for bedding) and Target for other items. I wanted to register at Crate & Barrell too..

Would 5 places be too many? I really only like certain things from certain stores...

Re: Registry ? How many places did you choose and

I only registered at BBB since DH and I already lived together and had a lot of stuff already. Plus, I was really lazy when it came that and did it online.

Re: Registry ? How many places did you choose and

we registered at BBB only. We figured that the guests could use a coupon. Plus, that store has it all.

I registered at BBB and Fortunoff's. I am not a fan of Fortunoff's, but LOVED my registry experience with BBB. They can't be beat!

i did macys & C&B. macys is the best, easy returns, C&B if u dont have a gift receipt they will do an exchange, but will only mail u a gift card, they wont give it to you in the store. I luv C&B for all their gadgets, but i could have just used macys alone, plus the only one on the island is in manhassett.
