Registry: what's the smallest price that's making your list?

Original post by marc_rai

So ladies,

FH and I live in Chicago in a little apartment and we actually would prefer $$ than gifts (due to transporting the gifts and space constraints). Howver, we are still registering at places because we figure some people will want to buy us a gift. Anyways, yesterday we went online and started to look at stuff and add it to our list.

So you know how some things are a set, but they separate it on the list and therefore you have items that are costing like $10 but the entire set is like $80 or something similar. My mom suggested not putting those types of things on the list because she said that some people would just look for the cheapest item and I might just end up with the $10 gift alone. I thought this was crazy, but hey you never know.

So ladies, do you have any minimum amount for any item in order to make your list? I think I will try to keep all my items to at least $80 and above, but I saw a couple of things for like $40 that I may add because I'm a grad student and I know that some of my friends won't have alot of $$. I'll be happy for whatever I get, but honestly I would hope that no one would buy me a gift for $10 (unless it's a child).


Oh, do you ladies have a maximum amount? I would love one of those LCD Hi-Definition 50' TV . But I know that's not going to happen.

We haven't registered yet...but I don't think that we will put a min amount on things we want...whatever we need we'll put on regardless of the price...if someone wants to buy it fine if not fine as well...

I don't know if putting things on your list that are over a certain price is right...what if someone can't afford to buy you something bc everything on your list is over $80 (I know that may not be the case) but I would put items on it that are less...besides its the though that counts...JMO

I have a $1.99 egg whisk - I need it so I put it on there. Whatever I needed or wanted I put it on.
