That's SO stupid! Now people could all be buying you the same things and they'll never know it until you open up their gifts at the shower! That's DUMB!

wow... that is nuts. i don't understand why people would not buy off your registry.. ITA with you, you don't know who its coming from and I thought the whole registry thing was to make it easier for them in the first place

That would really irritate me too! Don't stress it though, I'm sure you'll get what you need and want, oh an maybe put a bug in someone's ear about making sure people pick off your registry because you won't know WHO it's from and then maybe that person can make sure it gets around!

Re: registry VENT
Thats very frustrating....however, after your shower you get to bring everything back and get what you want!.....(Dnt know if thats a good thing though, its mainly a pain in the a**)

Re: registry VENT
the same thing happened to me. i already had my shower & this is what the registry looks like.
that's right, hardly anyone purchased items from the registry. i have to go this weekend to return 5 things at 5 different stores. & btw we also received a gift that was ordered off TV which we can't return & will never ever use.

Re: registry VENT
people do dumb things sometimes...try not to stress over it though, if anything just take back the things that you dont want or need.

Re: registry VENT
Maybe they're buying stuff off the registry, but not having the store scan the registry to take it off?

Re: registry VENT
she said they flat out told her they were going outside of the registry so that she couldn't stalk.
either way. the point is to mark what you bought so they dont receive duplicates.
they're morons.
tell SOMEONE who is rational what this woman said about it and have them put everyone else in order otherwise you are going to end up with a bunch of stuff you dont NEED, WANT or already have one or more of.
